A leak under the foundation does not show up as a puddle at first. A warm patch of flooring over a hot water line, the sound of water running when every fixture is off, or a water bill that climbs for no reason are usually the earliest signs, and by the time water reaches the surface it has often been running for months.

Shut off the water at the main if the leak seems active and the sound or bill change is new, since that stops the damage from spreading while it gets looked at. There is no way to confirm a slab leak by ear alone, so this is not something to wait on once the signs line up.

In Oacoma, SD, the plumber we connect you with can pinpoint the leak with acoustic or thermal equipment before any concrete gets opened, and lay out the repair options side by side. Call (844) 898-0295.

Slab Leak Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Slab Leak Repair

Questions we hear most often about Slab Leak Repair in Oacoma, SD.

Talk to a real person
Why does my water heater's pilot light keep going out?
A pilot that won't stay lit is usually a failed thermocouple, the small sensor that tells the gas valve a flame is present. When it wears out, the valve shuts off the gas as a safety measure, even though you keep relighting it. Do not keep manually holding the pilot lit or forcing the gas valve. Shut the gas supply if you smell any odor and leave the area. This is a repair for a professional, not a DIY project. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe the symptoms to get connected with an independent local plumber.
Why does my water heater's water get too hot then suddenly turn cold?
This pattern often points to a tripped high-limit reset switch, a safety device that cuts power to the heating elements if the water gets dangerously hot. It can be triggered by a failing thermostat or a bad element. On a gas unit, similar swings can come from a fouled burner or a failing thermocouple. Do not keep resetting the switch repeatedly. Turn off the water heater's power or gas supply and stop using hot water until it is looked at. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe what you are seeing.
Why is water dripping from the pipe on top of my water heater?
That pipe usually runs from the pressure relief valve, and a steady drip often means the valve is doing its job by releasing pressure that has nowhere else to go. A common cause is a failed expansion tank that no longer absorbs the extra pressure created when water heats up. Shut the cold supply valve on top of the tank if the dripping is heavy or the tank feels excessively hot. Do not ignore it, since pressure with nowhere to escape can be dangerous. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe what you are seeing in Oacoma, SD.
Do I really need my backflow preventer tested every year?
Many municipalities require an annual backflow test to confirm the device is still stopping contaminated water from flowing back into the clean water supply, and skipping it can bring a notice from the water utility. The test itself is quick, but it should be done by someone familiar with local backflow codes, since requirements vary by city. If you received a notice from your water provider or are not sure whether your property even has a backflow preventer, do not guess. Call (844) 898-0295 and mention the notice to get connected with an independent local plumber who handles backflow testing in Oacoma, SD.
How do I know if my sump pump is about to fail?
Listen for a pump that runs constantly, cycles on and off rapidly, or makes a grinding or humming noise without moving water. A pump that stays silent during heavy rain, or a pit that stays full instead of draining down, are also warning signs. Age matters too, since most pumps wear out after some years of regular use. Do not wait for a flooded basement to deal with it. If you are noticing any of these signs, or need a new sump pump installed, call (844) 898-0295 and describe the situation.
