Found One Near Stanford and Trask
About five months back, a couple over by Stanford Ave and Trask called us after their floor felt warm and their water bill jumped. They thought it was the dishwasher leaking. Turns out it was a hot line slab leak.
We used a thermal camera and sonic detector and found the exact spot within an hour. We marked the concrete, and the homeowner chose to do a spot repair. Since it was in the kitchen, we sealed off dust with plastic sheeting and knocked it out clean. The homeowner texted later saying they’d had three other companies out, and we were the only ones who found it right.
How We Detect a Slab Leak
Slab leaks hide under the concrete, so finding one takes more than a guess. We start by shutting off all water and doing a pressure drop test. If pressure doesn’t hold, we use an acoustic leak detector to listen through the slab. If it’s a hot line, we follow with a thermal camera. Cold lines get traced with tracer gas and sniffers, or an electrical pulse with a receiver.
Once we’ve narrowed it down, we use a rigid boroscope camera or pin-down with dye tracing. We can usually mark the slab within a 12-inch zone. We use headsets, high-frequency microphones, and advanced listening gear—not just old-school hammers and ears.
From there, we talk next steps: spot repair, reroute, or full line replacement.

Common DIY Mistakes When Finding Slab Leaks
One homeowner busted up three floor tiles trying to “follow the warmth” with their hand. They ended up 6 feet off.
Another guy tried a stethoscope from a YouTube video. He heard the fridge.
Someone else added food dye to the toilet thinking it would show up through cracks in the slab. That’s not how water flow works.
