Foundation leaks are not something you want to mess around with. These below-ground leaks can weaken your home’s structure and ruin your walls, flooring, and baseboards. At San Jose Action Plumbing Pros, we are in the business of helping homeowners solve their plumbing leak problems. We work with the best certified technicians in the business to ensure that you always have top-notch, outstanding service.

We are available 24 hours a day. You’ll never have to wait for expert assistance because when a foundation leak (aka slab leak) makes itself known the best defense is immediate offensive action.

How Slab Leaks Affect Your Home

Foundation leaks eat away slowly at your home’s structure features. Although the concrete slab creates a barrier between the soil and your home’s interior, that barrier is only temporary when a pipe bursts beneath the surface of your home. Water leaks that go undetected and untreated can create cracks in your walls, damage your flooring, and create soft spots in your foundation.

How We Treat Water Leaks

First, our technicians use electronic equipment to detect the exact location of the leak. This equipment enables our technicians to find leaks without employing the old search and destroy techniques. Using this state-of-the-art technology, our technicians do not have to break your slab to find the source of the leak.

Once the source is detected, our technicians will use as many non-invasive measures as possible to make repairs that keep as much of your slab intact as possible. Repair methods include epoxy solutions, pipe repair, and pipe rerouting.

Preventing Future Slab Leaks

The best way to prevent slab leaks is to make sure that any plumbing installed in your home is done by a licensed, professional plumber. It is also critical that household components like sump pumps, water heaters, and water meters are in proper working condition.

You can reduce your risk of dealing with a frustrating slab leak by contacting us for routine inspection services on an annual basis. Adding this component to your regular plumbing maintenance (i.e. drain cleaning and spot checks) will ensure that problems are caught in the early stages to prevent major catastrophes.
