The damage that a plumbing slab leak causes is slow and steady, which is why homeowners often do not notice this problem until it has caused extensive damage. In some cases, it can even leave a home unlivable. A plumber can help detect it before it’s too late.

If you suspect that your home has a slab leak, or if you simply want to rule out the possibility, it is absolutely critical that you contact a licensed plumber in your area. At Custom Plumbing of Arizona, we are experts at slab leak detection and repair, so please do not hesitate to call us if you have any questions.

Think that this type of leak has already damaged your home? If you notice any of these signs, you should act fast to repair the damage from your plumbing slab leak.

Your Home’s Foundation Has Shifted

The slow erosion and degradation that occurs with a slab leak ensures that, given enough time, your foundation with start to crumble and shift if you do not intervene. The first signs that you may notice include cracks at the base of your home. At these first signs, you should bring a plumber into your home to take a look. They can tell you what to expect moving forward.

The problem with plumbing slab leaks is that because the signs don’t appear to be drastic, or don’t appear at all, homeowners often don’t take action. This is a mistake that you need to avoid. Failing to take action could cost you.

A Plumbing Slab Leak Can Drain Your Bank Account

If you are one of the lucky few to catch this problem before it causes significant damage, you could end up saving thousands of dollars. Sometimes, insurance does not cover the cost of repairs, but considering that some slab leaks go undetected so long that the house ends up being condemned, that is getting off easy.

What seems like a small problem right now will grow into a serious one later, so don’t wait any longer than you need to if you want to protect your home. If your home is over 30 years old, we suggest that you get your plumbing inspected regularly.

If you need an expert to inspect your home’s plumbing, please don’t hesitate to contact us today.
