White Glove Plumbing

Slab Leak Detection & Repair in Riverglen, Santa Ana

Serving ZIP: 92705
Typical ETA: 10–20 minutes via SR-55 → 17th St / Grand Ave / Tustin Ave


Riverglen sits near the Santa Ana River with 1960s–70s slab-on-grade homes and remodels. Long kitchen/bath runs, hot-water recirc loops, and mixed copper/galvanized tie-ins make pinhole slab leaks a common (and costly) surprise. We use non-destructive locating and clean, strategic overhead reroutes that protect tile, hardwood, and new finishes—then handle dry-out and restoration so you’re back to normal fast.

As a property manager, reliable vendors are everything—and White Glove Plumbing really delivered. Great service and definitely my go-to from now on."

"Our water heater leaked out of nowhere and we were freaking out. Luckily, Joe showed up fast and took care of it. He was super friendly, explained what was going on, and had everything fixed up way quicker than I expected. Honestly, such a relief—definitely calling White Glove Plumbing again if we ever need plumbing help."

Slab Leak Detection & Repair


Ideal for

  • Warm floor spots; meter spinning with fixtures off

  • Musty baseboards, cupped hardwood, or lifting tile near kitchens/baths

  • Hissing/running-water sounds and higher gas/electric from hot-line leaks

  • Repeat pinhole patches or mixed-metal joints that keep failing


What we do/install

  • Acoustic listening + thermal imaging to pinpoint within inches

  • Pressure isolation by zone; map hot/cold/domestic loops before opening

  • Repair options: targeted slab open/repair, overhead PEX-A reroute, or section replacement

  • PRV test & set (typically 55–65 psi); add expansion control where required

  • Dry-out & restoration: containment, dehumidifiers/air scrubbers, flooring/wall repairs, paint match


Why this neighborhood benefits

  • Slab-on-grade + long runs toward the river corridor are prone to pinholes; precise locating and over-slab reroutes preserve flooring and cabinetry.


Typical timeline

  • Detection same day; most reroutes/repairs 1 day (complex finishes: 1–2 days with coordinated restoration)


Trenchless Sewer Repair


When we recommend it: Camera shows cracks/offsets/roots in older clay laterals—common along tree-lined easements heading toward the river.What it includes: Hydro-jet & descale, electronic locating, CIPP liners or pipe bursting, discreet two-way cleanouts, and City of Santa Ana permit/inspection. Why it fits here: Fixes the structural cause of backups while protecting driveways, patios, and narrow side yards typical of Riverglen lots.


Neighborhood Issues We See Most


  • Pinhole copper leaks under kitchens, laundries, and primary baths

  • PRV drift causing 80–100+ psi spikes and fixture failures

  • Long hot-water loops to additions → temperature lag and heat-loop leaks

  • Cast-iron scale at garage/mechanical transitions slowing drains

  • Tree-root pressure on older laterals near river-adjacent landscaping


Recent Jobs Nearby


  • Near the Santa Ana River Trail: Warm tile by pantry; thermal/acoustic locate → overhead PEX-A reroute via soffit. Tile preserved; PRV set to 60 psi.

  • Tustin/17th pocket: Musty baseboards at hall bath; targeted slab open/repair + same-day dry-out; walls repainted to match.

  • Grand Ave corridor: Repeat pinholes over 14 months; completed zone reroutes + expansion control. No leaks since; water pressure stabilized.


How We Work


  • Scope first, fix right: locate, pressure-test, photo/video before any opening

  • Floor/wall protection, dust containment, quiet tools, daily tidy jobsite

  • One team for plumbing + water-damage & mold restoration

  • Permit/inspection handling; clear warranty and pressure logs at closeout

  • Historic/upgrade-friendly: minimal, restoration-ready access points


Frequently Asked Questions


Will you need to tear up my floors?


Often no. We prioritize overhead/through-wall reroutes using closets/soffits. If slab access is required, cuts are small and restoration-ready.


How do you find the exact leak without guessing?


We combine acoustic listening, thermal imaging, and pressure isolation to triangulate within inches, then confirm before opening.


Should I repair the leak or repipe the whole house?


If piping is mostly sound, a targeted reroute/repair is cost-effective. With repeated leaks or mixed metals, a whole-home repipe prevents recurring damage.


What pressure should my home run at?


Most Riverglen homes perform best at 55–65 psi. We test and set your PRV and document readings to reduce future leak risk.


Can you handle the water damage and insurance?


Yes. We provide dry-out, containment, mold remediation, and direct insurance documentation (photos, moisture logs, estimates) plus full build-back.


Directions & Coverage


We reach Riverglen in 10–20 minutes via SR-55 → 17th / Grand / Tustin. Full coverage of 92705 and adjacent Santa Ana streets.
