A warm floor spot, spiking bill, or the sound of running water with everything off usually means a slab leak. We find it electronically and fix it with minimal disruption.

Nearly every home in the Tarpon Springs area is built on a concrete slab, with copper or older galvanized supply lines running directly beneath it. Florida's hard water corrodes copper from the inside over years, eventually creating a pinhole leak; ground shifting and soil conditions can also stress a line until it fails. Because the pipe is buried in concrete, the leak isn't visible — you notice it indirectly: a spiking water bill, a warm patch on the floor (from a hot-water line), the sound of running water with everything off, or eventually cracking in the flooring or baseboards as water saturates the ground beneath the slab.
We don't guess and start jackhammering. Acoustic sensors listen for the specific sound signature of pressurized water escaping underground, and thermal imaging can spot the heat signature of a hot-water line leak right through the floor. Once we've pinpointed the exact location, we discuss your options: a direct spot repair (breaking a small, precise section of slab), a reroute that runs a new line through the attic or walls and avoids the slab entirely, or, for a home with multiple slab leaks over time, a full repipe. We'll lay out the trade-offs so you can choose with full information.
We check your meter and isolate whether the leak is on the hot or cold line to narrow the search area.
Acoustic and thermal tools pinpoint the exact leak location under the slab.
