7 Signs of a Hidden Slab Leak

7 Signs of a Hidden Slab Leak

Most homes in Hollywood and Broward County are built on concrete slabs, with water lines running underneath. When those pipes leak, the signs can be subtle.

  • An unexplained jump in your water bill
  • Warm or hot spots on the floor
  • The sound of running water when everything is off
  • Damp or mildewy carpet
  • Cracks in tile or flooring
  • Low water pressure
  • Your water meter moves with all fixtures off

How to test

Turn off every faucet and water-using appliance, then check your meter. Wait 30 minutes without using water. If the reading changed, you likely have a leak.

Our electronic leak detection pinpoints slab leaks without digging up your whole floor.
