Slab leaks occur in water lines beneath concrete foundations. Caused by cracks, breaks, or corrosion in pressurized pipes, they are hidden from view and can cause damage before you even realize you have a problem.
Slab leaks can happen in both cold and hot water lines. We use highly specialized equipment to detect them without damaging your property, and can then perform targeted repairs to minimize disruption.
If you suspect that you have a slab leak, contact Mr. Rooter® and enquire about our under slab leak detection and repair process.

How We Repair Plumbing Leaks Under Foundations
We fix slab leaks using various methods. With epoxy pipe lining, we’ll insert a flexible, resin-coated liner that hardens in place. Alternatively, we can reroute the piping around the foundation or replace heavily damaged sections.
