Slab Leak Detection & Repair in Washington Square, Santa Ana

Slab Leak Detection & Repair

Ideal for

• Warm areas on floors or meter spinning with fixtures off

• Cupped hardwood, lifting tile, or damp carpet/baseboards

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

• Repeat pinhole patches on older copper or mixed-metal joints

What we do/install

• Acoustic & thermal imaging + pressure isolation to pinpoint within inches

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

• PRV test & set (typically 55–65 psi) to reduce future leaks

• Dry-out & restoration: dehumidifiers, containment, floor/wall repair and paint match

Why this neighborhood benefits

• Historic slabs + copper are prone to pinholes; precise locating avoids unnecessary demo

• Overhead reroutes protect original hardwood, terrazzo, and vintage tile

Typical timeline

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

Sewer Camera & Trenchless Spot Repair

When we recommend it: Camera confirms cracks/offsets/roots in older clay laterals—common under tree-lined side yards.What it includes: Hydro-jet & descale, electronic locate, then CIPP spot liner or short pipe burst, plus discreet two-way cleanouts and City of Santa Ana permit/inspection.Why it fits here: Fixes the structural cause of backups while preserving decorative concrete, brick ribbons, and heritage trees.

Neighborhood Issues We See Most

• Pinhole copper leaks under kitchens/baths and additions

• High pressure / PRV drift accelerating leaks and fixture wear

• Cast-iron scale near garage/mechanical transitions

• Root intrusion at clay joints on long, low-slope laterals

Frequently Asked Questions

Will you have to tear up my floors?

We prioritize overhead/through-wall reroutes using closets/soffits. If slab access is needed, cuts are small and restoration-ready.

How do you find the exact leak?

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

Repair the leak or repipe the whole house?

If piping is mostly sound, a targeted repair is cost-effective. With multiple pinholes or mixed metals, a whole-home repipe prevents repeat damage.

What water pressure should my home run at?

Most Washington Square homes perform best at 55–65 psi. We test and set your PRV and document readings.

Can you handle the water damage too?

Yes. We provide dry-out, containment, and mold remediation, then restore drywall/floors so you’re back to normal quickly.
