There are several ways we can repair a slab leak, including:
Determining the method of repair requires a thorough inspection of your pipes. Depending on the location of the leak and the condition of your pipes, we can inform you whether minor repair or full repiping is necessary.
Cracked wall paint – The water pressure from your leak might not be enough to do much other than crack your wall’s paint, make sure to note any new cracks and let our Tulsa leak repair experts know of your findings.
2. The musky smell of mold or mildew – Mold or mildew growth happens when there’s standing water in places with little to no ventilation. So if you smell this but can’t see anything, it could be on the inside of your wall or ceiling.
3. An unusually high water bill – If a water leak goes unnoticed for long enough you might be unfortunate to learn about it through your water bill. Contact your Tulsa leak repair experts should you suspect anything.
4. A visible water stain – The best case scenario for a water leak is if it makes a visible stain in an area you will see. Make sure to give us a call sooner rather than later so it doesn’t get worse.
5. The water meter test – You can test if you have a leak any time by turning off all your water and heading to the water meter. If your property is still using water with everything turned off then contact our Tulsa leak repair professionals.
