What Is a Slab Leak & How Does It Happen?

A slab leak refers to a leak in the water lines located beneath the concrete slab of your foundation. This type of leak can happen in both older and newer homes, though they are more common in properties with aging plumbing systems. 

Slab leaks are problematic because they are out of sight, often leading homeowners to overlook them until substantial damage occurs. Such leaks can cause the ground beneath your home to erode, potentially destabilizing the foundation and leading to significant repair costs. It's important to be proactive in addressing slab leaks, especially given Montgomery's varied soil conditions, which can exacerbate leak-related issues.

Understanding the causes of slab leaks can help in their prevention. Regular inspection of your plumbing system can mitigate risks and catch issues before they develop into larger problems. In Montgomery, the fluctuating weather patterns and heavy rainfall can impact the shifting soil, which is a common cause of pipe stress and breakage beneath foundations.

Slab leaks can be caused by several factors, including:

  • Corrosion. Over time, the pipes under your foundation can corrode due to soil conditions, age, or poor installation.
  • High water pressure. Excessive pressure can put stress on your pipes and cause them to crack or leak.
  • Shifting soil. Changes in the soil around your property can affect the integrity of the pipes beneath your foundation.
  • Improper installation. In some cases, slab leaks can occur due to poor installation practices or faulty materials used during construction.

If left unchecked, slab leaks can lead to higher water bills, water damage, and structural issues with your home or business. That’s why it’s important to act quickly when you suspect a slab leak.
