Slab leaks from aging copper piping
Why it happens here
Homes in Preston Ridge were built with copper piping that is now 20 to 30 years old. The soil in this area shifts with wet and dry cycles, which can stress the pipes under the slab. A slab leak can go unnoticed for weeks, slowly soaking the foundation and flooring.
Our approach
We use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to locate the leak without tearing up the whole floor. We work with a plumber to fix the pipe, then dry the affected area and repair the flooring. We also check for mold growth before we close the job.
