Possible under-slab plumbing leak

Slab Leak Warning Signs in Hemet, California

Unexplained warm flooring, running-water sounds, higher water use, damp flooring, low pressure, or water near the foundation can point to a concealed leak, but proper diagnosis is needed.

What not to do

1

Do not break concrete yourself

The leak location needs to be narrowed before invasive work begins.

2

Do not ignore active moisture

Move belongings when safe and document visible damage.

3

Watch the meter safely

Turn fixtures off and note whether the meter still changes.

4

Shut water off for uncontrolled flow

Use the main shutoff only when accessible and safe.
