Our Seamless Detection Process
Our process begins with an accurate assessment to confirm whether a slab leak exists. We utilize cutting-edge technology to conduct precise pressure tests and track plumbing lines, enabling us to identify the exact leak location efficiently.
Thermal imaging helps us map temperature differences across flooring that may be associated with leaking water beneath the surface. We also use acoustic listening equipment, including sensitive ground microphones, to detect sounds and vibrations produced by water escaping from a pressurized pipe. These non-invasive methods help pinpoint the suspected leak location and provide the information you need to consider repair access and next steps.
Common Causes & Warning Signs
Beneath some Baton Rouge homes, expansive gumbo clay can wash away or heave when a leak remains unaddressed. Pipe corrosion and ground movement can also contribute to leaks in plumbing lines beneath a slab. Water pressure and installation conditions may play a role as well.
