Slab leaks are common in Lido Isle, California. Here are some of the most frequent causes.

Tree Root Intrusion

Why are you still standing in the middle of your yard, looking for wet patches and sinkholes? Call Lido Isle’s favorite plumbers at Elder & Young now! Our leak detection equipment will find the leaks while we fix them quickly.

Worn Pipe Joints

The water in your home in Lido Isle may not be flowing as smoothly and efficiently as it should. Have you ever wondered why? Curved pipe joints link straight sections together to direct the flow of water throughout your plumbing system, but they are also vulnerable to pressure from high-pressure or extreme temperatures within our piping over time. These connection points can cause leaks if welds become weaker with age due to a constant change in water pressure which causes these joints flexing on themselves more often than not rather then holding strong against any kind of force that comes their way! It’s best for plumbers who have identified problems early before there is an issue at all because solving them will take less effort overall – saving you lots of money in repair bills down the line!!

Quick Temperature Changes

It’s important to keep your plumbing system in good working order. As the temperature changes, pipes can expand and contract over time causing joints and connections to wear down. Elder & Young offers pressure testing services so we can help you find any leaks early on before they become a serious problem for you home in Lido Isle or business- give us a call now!

Pipe Corrosion and Aging Pipes

Corrosion can cause both leaks and clogs. It’s important to take care of any corrosion on your pipes, as it may indicate that you need to have them looked at by a professional plumber right away! If the problem appears more severe than it is, consider replacing high risk factors- like ones made from cast iron – because these will only get worse over time and require significant repairs later if left unattended.

Foundation Shifting and Settling

The pipes in your house in Lido Isle may be more fragile than you might think. One of the reasons is that they have to move with what’s happening around them, and if there’s a problem elsewhere like erosion or an earthquake then the whole foundation can shift which will make everything go out of whack including anything connected to it such as water pressure changes and color issues.

High Water Pressure

Most people don’t think about water pressure. We all like the fell of a lot of pressure in the shower, however this pressure is also constantly pressing against the interior walls of the pipes in your plumbing system. This pressure is also causing pressure on the plumbing joints. As mentioned earlier, the joints are one of the most common causes of these leaks. If you hear your plumbing when you flush your toilet, or when you turn your water on or off, you may need to have your water pressure checked and regulated.

What are the common signs of slab leaks in Lido Isle, California?

A Musty Odor or Smell

Do you smell mildew or a musty odor?  Over time, a consistent leak will provide the humidity necessary for mold to grow.  You may even notice black splotches on the wall outside which is a sign that mold has grown inside the wall.  If you see this, or you smell a musty odor on a regular basis, it’s time to call a plumbing professional immediately.

Water in the Street

It is important to know the signs of a leaking main water line. When there’s nowhere for the overflow from your pipe to go, it will often seep up right in front of your home at the street! If you notice bubbling water on the street then they should contact a professional plumber immediately before any more damage can be done.

Puddles Inside or Outside Your Home

If you have water accumulating or puddling inside or outside your home, whether it be in a walkway, or on a floor, it could be an indicator of a water leak in the pipes. While some problems are easier to diagnose and detect, the leaks inside walls and underground are more challenging and special leak detection equipment may be necessary. If you suspect a leak that you can’t see, call us to schedule a service call immediately.

Dark Areas on Concrete, Warped Flooring, Lifting Tiles, Wet Areas on the Floor or Carpet

Leaking water damages homes by seeping into their foundation and weakening structural components like walls, floors, and ceilings over time; this in turn causes cracks throughout your house. Unchecked leaking water is an all-around bad situation for homeowners because it not only affects the appearance of a property but also its safety – if left alone long enough, leakage could lead to demolition needs or expensive repair jobs as well! If you notice any of these issues, contact a plumber for help immediately!

Wet Spots on Floor Around Sinks, Toilets and Tubs

If you notice a wet spot on the floor around a sink, toilet or tub, it may be nothing, or, it may be due to a water leak. Homeowners should regularly inspect the areas around sinks, toilets and tubs and look for wet spots or discoloration. If you notice don’t notice anything unusual, and the moisture persists, you could have a cracked toilet, or it could be something else. If nothing stands out, call a professional plumber for help. We’ll find the source of the water and solve the plumbing problem.

Frequently Asked Questions

[su_spoiler title='Will you have to break my floors to find the leak?' open='no' style='fancy']

In most cases, no. Our advanced detection methods locate the leak before any demolition is needed, saving you time and cost.

[/su_spoiler][su_spoiler title=' Can slab leaks cause foundation damage?' open='no' style='fancy']

Yes. Over time, water erodes the soil beneath your foundation, leading to cracks, settlement, and structural issues.

[/su_spoiler][su_spoiler title='What causes a slab leak?' open='no' style='fancy']

Most slab leaks are caused by corrosion, shifting foundations, poor installation, or old copper piping wearing down over time.

[/su_spoiler][su_spoiler title='How quickly can you respond to a suspected slab leak?' open='no' style='fancy']

We offer same-day service for most Lido Isle calls and 24/7 emergency response for major leaks.

[/su_spoiler][su_spoiler title='Is slab leak repair covered by homeowners insurance?' open='no' style='fancy']
