What Is a Slab Leak?
A slab leak is a water line break beneath your home’s concrete foundation. In Newport Beach, slab leaks occur when copper pipes corrode from salt air, sandy soil shifts foundations, or pipes exceed their 30-40 year lifespan. These leaks waste thousands of gallons monthly and cause foundation damage requiring immediate professional detection and repair.

How much water does a slab leak waste?

Will homeowners insurance cover slab leak repairs?
Most Newport Beach homeowners successfully claim sudden slab leak damage through insurance. Coverage typically includes water damage and repairs but not the pipe itself. We provide professional documentation, photos, and licensed estimates insurance companies require for claims.
What causes slab leaks in coastal homes?
Newport Beach slab leaks result from salt air corroding copper pipes, sandy soil shifting foundations, high water tables, and aging infrastructure. Homes near Balboa Peninsula and Newport Harbor experience rates twice the inland average due to coastal conditions.
Can slab leaks be prevented?
Regular water pressure monitoring, annual plumbing inspections, and water softener installation help prevent slab leaks. Newport Beach homes should maintain 60-80 PSI water pressure and consider repiping copper lines over 40 years old.
