A water bill that doubles with no change in habits is the most common way a slab leak announces itself in Selma, Texas. We locate leaks in Selma with acoustic and thermal equipment first, so the only concrete that gets opened is the concrete over the leak.
With newer two-story homes in planned neighborhoods across Selma and clay soil that expands and contracts with the weather underneath, fixture and PEX connection failures in young construction is the failure mode we plan for. Knowing that before we arrive is the difference between finding the leak in an hour and hunting for it all afternoon.
Once located, you get two prices: repair the section, or reroute the line overhead and abandon what is under the slab. On older homes in Selma the reroute is frequently the better investment, and we will show you the math rather than assert it.
