Warning signs
When to Book Slab Leak Detection in Rockwall, TX
Most leaks under a slab give themselves away long before water shows at the surface. These are the clues homeowners in Rockwall tend to notice first.
One patch of floor runs warm
Walk the room barefoot. A warm stripe or spot, especially near the kitchen or bath, points at a hot line.
A wet edge along the wall
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.
Pressure slowly fading
Taps and showers deliver less than they did a few months ago.
A musty smell indoors
Mildew odour near floors or closets with no obvious wet spot.
Puddles near the slab outside
A wet patch along the foundation line in dry weather.
