Warning signs
When to Book Slab Leak Detection in Fleming Island, FL
You do not need to see water to have a leak under the floor. If a few of these sound familiar, it is time to have the lines tested.
One patch of floor runs warm
A leaking hot line heats the concrete above it. One homeowner measured 90°F there against 73°F elsewhere.
Damp carpet with no spill
Moisture that wicks up at a baseboard, with no plumbing fixture nearby, is often coming from below.
Tiles that crack in a line
Water washing soil out from under a slab can let it settle, and hard flooring shows it first.
A musty smell indoors
Mildew odour near floors or closets with no obvious wet spot.
The meter dial turns on its own
Every fixture off, yet the small leak indicator keeps moving.
Baseboards swelling or staining
Trim that darkens or bulges at floor level.
