What Is a Slab Leak & Why It's a Big Deal for Denver, CO Residents

A slab leak happens when a pipe running beneath your home’s concrete slab foundation begins leaking. Slab leaks occur when water pipes beneath the concrete slab of a house develop leaks, often due to soil shifting, poor installation, or issues in the plumbing system. Leaks beneath the concrete slab can compromise your home's foundation, weakening its structural integrity and causing significant damage.

Early detection and repair of slab leaks can lead to preventing structural damage and water loss, protecting your property and saving on costly repairs. If you begin to notice damp or wet carpets in your home, it's time to contact Colorado Water Works for a slab leak detection service visit.

Denver’s shifting soils, freeze–thaw cycles, water supply issues, and hard water accelerate pipe corrosion and movement - making slab leaks a serious risk in many older and even newer homes. Plumbing leaks beneath the slab are often hidden and require professional attention to detect and repair before they cause extensive damage.

Signs You May Have an Undetected Slab Leak

Here are some common signs of a slab leak that homeowners should notice. Paying attention to these signs early is crucial to prevent further damage and costly repairs.

Early detection can save you thousands in repairs. Be on the lookout for these symptoms in your Denver home:

• Unexplained spikes in your water bills, which may indicate increased water usage due to a hidden leak.
• Damp spots/ warm spots on your floors.
• Extensive water damage
• The sound of running water when all fixtures are off.
• Mold or mildew growth in unexpected areas.
• Cracks in your walls or flooring.
• Increased water usage or abnormal water meter readings, which can be a sign of a concealed leak beneath the slab.

If you notice any of these warning signs in your Denver home, don’t wait - schedule a professional slab leak inspection today to protect your property and avoid expensive repairs.

Our Slab Leak Detection Repair Process

Rapid On-Site Evaluation & Initial Assessment

01

We understand that slab leaks are urgent situations, which is why we respond quickly, often arriving at your Denver home the same day you call. Our initial assessment begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether a slab leak is actually present, using precision water meter readings and specialized pressure testing equipment. During this crucial first step, our technicians also examine your home's plumbing history, check for visible signs of foundation damage, and assess water pressure inconsistencies throughout your home. This thorough evaluation helps us understand not just whether you have a slab leak, but also gives us valuable insight into your plumbing system's overall condition and any contributing factors that may have led to the problem.

02

Advanced Leak Detection Technology

Once we've confirmed the presence of a slab leak, we deploy our arsenal of advanced detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location without unnecessary excavation. Our acoustic listening devices can detect the sound of water moving through pipes beneath your concrete slab, while thermal imaging cameras reveal temperature variations that indicate water seepage patterns. We also utilize specialized camera inspection technology that allows us to visually examine pipe interiors and identify the precise source of the leak. This high-tech approach means we can locate your slab leak with surgical precision, eliminating the guesswork and extensive concrete cutting that other companies often rely on.

03

Transparent Diagnosis & Detailed Written Estimate

After completing our diagnostic process, you receive a comprehensive written estimate that clearly outlines the scope of repair needed, detailed pricing for all work, realistic timeline expectations, and our professional recommendations. We believe you should never feel confused or pressured when making important decisions about your home's plumbing system. Our team is committed to providing clear, honest answers to any questions you may have about slab leaks, the repair process, or preventive measures you can take. We'll explain our findings in plain language, discuss all available repair options, and help you understand the pros and cons of each approach.

04

Targeted, Minimally Invasive Repair Solutions

Depending on the location, severity, and underlying cause of your slab leak, we employ the most appropriate repair method to solve your specific situation. Our targeted spot repair technique allows us to fix isolated leaks with minimal concrete removal, while our pipe rerouting service creates new pathways around damaged sections of plumbing beneath your slab. For more complex situations, we may recommend slab tunneling or complete repiping services that provide comprehensive, long-term solutions. Throughout the repair process, our methods are specifically designed to minimize damage to your foundation, protect your home's structural integrity, and preserve as much of your original flooring and surfaces as possible.

05

Complete Restoration & Ongoing Aftercare Support

After successfully completing your slab leak repair, we carefully restore any concrete work, repair or replace affected flooring materials, and refinish any surfaces that were disturbed during the repair process. Our goal is to leave your home looking as good as new, with no evidence of the repair work except for your restored plumbing function. Beyond the immediate restoration, we provide valuable guidance for leak prevention and ongoing maintenance to help you avoid future slab leak problems. This includes recommendations for water pressure management, advice on recognizing early warning signs, and suggestions for regular maintenance that can extend the life of your plumbing system.
