How do I know if I have a plumbing leak?

Not every plumbing leak will be obvious. An obvious leak is one that isn’t hidden behind the wall and you can actively see water pooling up on floors or walls, or coming from an appliance or fixture. If your house has a plumbing leak that isn’t easy to see you need to locate it before it causes extensive damage requiring thousands of dollars in repairs. The major issue with hidden plumbing leaks is that they can go unnoticed for extended periods of time leading to a whole host of issues that only get more expensive to repair over time. Plumbing leaks can be diagnosed by looking for any of the following signs in your home:

If you notice any of the above signs of a plumbing leak or if you have received a letter in the mail from the Midland Water Department stating that your usage has gone up and a leak may be present, give Action Air & Plumbing a call today to schedule your water leak detection in Midland.

What is a slab leak?

The most simple definition of a slab leak is when water is leaking from a pipe that is located underneath a concrete slab. A large number of homes in the Midland, TX area have concrete slabs either in the basement, the garage, or in a ground-level addition. It’s not uncommon for a slab leak to occur, especially if the concrete was laid improperly or if the ground underneath the slab causes the slab to shift. Leaks in the concrete slab of your basement or garage should be inspected immediately by a plumber who is well versed in both slab leak detection and repair! Action Air & Plumbing is the most experienced company providing slab leak detection Midland, Tx.

How do Slab Leaks Occur?

There are quite a few reasons why slab leaks happen but the most common is when there is clay underneath the foundation of the home. The clay causes the soil underneath the slab to shift, which in turn can cause the concrete to shift too. When this happens, cracks appear in the foundation, which leads to water coming up from the ground.

Some other causes of a slab leak include an earthquake, an underground stream, and even erosion of the soil around the slab. If there were pipes installed in the concrete or underneath the concrete they can become cracked, leading to a leak that can sift through the concrete causing pooling on flooring inside your home or garage. The pipes, if older and made of copper, can become corroded over time leading to cracking or breaking. If you are in need of a plumber to perform a slab leak detection at your home in Midland or Odessa, do not hestitate to give us a call!

How are Slab Leaks Detected?

Should you think there is a slab leak in your basement or garage you need to know the signs that point to one. For starters, you should not simply dig up the concrete without knowing where the leak is originating. Be on the lookout for these slab leak signs:

We had a gas leak (gas company shutoff our meter) on a Thursday evening. Contacted Action Air and they were very responsive and had the leak fixed before end of day Friday. They had their part done ASAP. Not so good with the gas company - they did not get our gas turned back on until the following Tuesday. I would recommend Action Air - quick/quality work/friendly.
