Slab leaks are common in Midway City, California. Here are some of the most common causes.
Pipe Corrosion and Aging Pipes
Rust and corrosion can be a real threat to your plumbing system as it ages. Corrosion may cause leaks or clogs, so watch out for spots on pipes that could indicate you need to get the problem checked by a professional plumber right away! If there’s more of an issue than what is visible at first glance, consider replacing any high-risk factors like cast iron pipes because over time these will only worsen without proper attention.
Quick Temperature Changes
To keep your plumbing system in the best shape possible, it’s important to have regular pressure tests. We can help you find any leaks before they become a problem and save you money on repairs down the line! In California this isn’t as much of a problem as it is in colder climates. Even still, over time pipes will eventually wear out if not maintained properly due to expansion and contraction from temperature changes.

Old Pipes
Pipes last decades, but they won’t last forever. The Original pipes are made from materials that are much more prone to corrosion such as iron and over time the pipe weakens and begins breaking down until eventually it breaks entirely due to rusting or other damage related issues – this is when you start noticing leaks in your property which could potentially lead to major problems for homes in Midway Cityif left unchecked for too long! If you have older pipes like these at home then we would recommend repiping with newer pipes before any serious damage occurs.
High Water Pressure
When your water pressure is too high, it can cause a number of pipes and joints in the plumbing system to leak. One way you might notice these leaks are by hearing them when using the toilet or turning on/off your faucet’s hot water. It may be necessary for us to check out this issue with an inspection so that we can make sure everything stays running smoothly!
Worn Pipe Joints
Curved pipe joints link straight sections together to direct water throughout your home, and they are especially vulnerable to pressure from the high-pressure or extreme temperatures in our plumbing system over time. These connection points on a typical house can’t handle it for long before developing leaks that cause costly damage – so don’t wait until you have one! A plumber in Midway City from Elder & Young Plumbing should be able too see what’s wrong with worn out connections early on.
What are the common symptoms of slab leaks in Midway City, California?
Wet Spots Next to Walls
Water flows downhill. If you have a wet spot next to a wall that is next to a bathroom, it may be a sign of a leak in the bathroom or within the wall between the two rooms. However, if there is no bathroom next to a wet spot next to a wall, it’s likely that the water the result of a water leak that is coming from above and running down the wall and pooling at the floor. In these situations, it’s important to contact a plumber immediately to mitigate the damages that are being done. These situations if not taken care of early can lead to mold and other damage. A professional plumber will use the latest electronic leak detection equipment to detect the location of the leak so that it can be fixed quickly without tearing down walls or the ceiling to find it and fix it.
Higher Than Normal Water Bills
A lot of leaks go unnoticed, especially leaks related to outdoor plumbing and the main water line that feeds the house. These lines are often very old and they are some of the most common to break down over the years. If your water usage has not increased, but your bill has, you may have a water leak. This leak could be anywhere on your property so it’s important to have your plumbing system inspected for leaks by a leak detection specialist.
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.
Mold and Mildew
Mold and mildew love damp and wet areas, especially when there’s not a lot of light or air movement. A lot of leaks happen behind a wall, under the floor or in the ceiling where they go unnoticed for quite a long time. And these places are the perfect breeding ground for mold and mildew. If you notice mold or mildew growing on a non-shower wall in your house, this could be a telltale sign of a water leak. Turn off your water and call a plumber immediately to schedule a leak detection service.
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.
