Leak Detection & Repair — common questions
How do I know I have a hidden leak?+
A water bill that jumps with no change in habits, a warm spot on a slab floor, the sound of running water when everything is off, musty smells, or a water meter that creeps with all fixtures closed.
How do I test the meter myself?+
Turn off every fixture and appliance that uses water, then note the meter's leak indicator or dial. If it moves over 15-20 minutes, water is going somewhere. That single test tells you whether to call.
What is a slab leak?+
A leak in a supply line running under or through the concrete foundation. Common signs are a warm patch on the floor, unexplained moisture at the edge of flooring, and a running meter. Older copper under slab is the usual candidate.
How are hidden leaks located without opening every wall?+
The trade uses listening equipment, thermal differences, moisture readings, and pressure isolation to narrow the area before anything is opened. The point is to cut once, in the right place.
Will homeowners insurance cover it?+
Policies commonly cover sudden resulting damage but not the failed pipe itself, and they usually exclude long-term seepage. Read your policy and document the date you noticed it — that date matters to an adjuster.
Should I shut the water off while I wait?+
If the leak is active and you can't isolate the fixture, yes. Shutting the main limits the damage, and a few hours without water costs far less than saturated drywall or flooring.
