You’ve
got a hot spot or a wet spot on your floor, or your water bill is
astronomical. Maybe you’re handy and have done some home repair
projects before, or maybe you’re just balking at the prices you’re
seeing online for professional slab leak detection
and repair jobs, and you’re wondering if you can just fix the problem
yourself. Before you go running off to rent a jackhammer or a concrete
saw, wait! Here’s a few reasons you may want to re-think the DIY route.
1. Cutting Into The Floor?
You may assume that in order to get to a leak under your floor that you have to pull up carpet or wood flooring, remove subfloor, and cut through the concrete slab. This seems logical enough, but did you know that’s not the recommended method of repair in California? Professional slab repair companies like Leakstar are usually able to repair your leak by simply rerouting your water lines around it. This necessitates only very small holes, usually in drywall. All of our plumbing professionals are trained to minimize the mess and hassle to you, and we complete most single line reroute in a day. You can trust our expertise and training, and keep your floors intact.
2. Repiping?
With certain leaks, repiping service is the method of choice. If you have a slab leak because of old, corroding pipes--or if you’ve had more than one slab leak--it can actually save you money and time to simply abandon the old plumbing and install an entirely new system, overhead and in the walls. Are you confident that you’d be able to determine the cause of your slab leak, and make a choice about whether to repair or reroute your system? We can help you make an educated decision, and do the repiping job.
