What Causes Slab Leaks?
Slab leaks occur when pipes beneath your home’s foundation crack, corrode, or break, leading to water seepage that can damage floors, walls, and structural integrity. Here are the most common causes:
- Corrosion – If copper pipes contact steel reinforcement rods or unbalanced pH levels, they can corrode over time, leading to leaks.
- High Water Pressure – Poor pipe installation, shifting soil, or underground stress can cause cracks or pinhole leaks.
- Abrasion – Constant water movement causes pipes to rub against concrete or gravel, leading to wear and tear.
- High Water Table – In areas prone to heavy rains, underground water can seep into slabs, increasing pressure on your plumbing system.
Left untreated, slab leaks can cause severe damage, including:
- Mold & Mildew Growth
- Foundation Cracks & Instability
- Rising Utility Bills
- Structural Damage to Walls & Floors
Early detection saves thousands in potential repairs!
Signs You May Have a Slab Leak
Slab leaks often go undetected for months—until serious damage appears. Look for these warning signs:
- Unexplained High Water Bills – A sudden spike in your water usage with no change in habits.
- The Sound of Running Water – Hearing water moving through pipes when no faucets are running.
- Hot Spots on the Floor – Warm areas on tile, wood, or carpet—often caused by leaks in hot water lines.
- Moisture or Mold Growth – Damp floors, mildew under carpets, or bubbling linoleum could mean underground water seepage.
- Cracks in Flooring or Walls – Long-term water exposure can weaken your foundation, leading to cracked tile or shifting walls.
If you notice any of these red flags, don’t wait—call The Waterworks for an inspection today!
Where Are Slab Leaks Found?
Slab leaks typically develop in two main areas:
- Incoming Water Lines – These pipes carry pressurized water into your home. A leak in these pipes can cause water to seep through cracks, leading to visible flooding or foundation damage.
- Drainage Pipes – These leaks don’t always show obvious signs right away, but they can erode soil, weaken foundations, and cause long-term damage.
Since slab leaks are often hidden, it’s crucial to have a licensed plumber inspect your home if you suspect a problem.

Michael was prompt and thorough. $500 seemed a little steep for 2 hrs of work.
Heating system annual inspection and maintenance was on time and professionally executed by Mr. Shepherd, a knowledgeable service technician. I would welcome him back into my home for future maintenance and/or repairs.
Had a water main issue. Feared it was outside. Set appt online through the website, which was fairly straightforward and easy to do from a user standpoint. Rodney, the Technichian assigned to our job , arrived at about 9am and was done by approx 1030. After carefully assessing the situation , he determined the issue was inside and gave us the estimate for what he believed would solve our issue, making clear this was the simplest and that he wanted to start with that to make the repair. If that didn't work , it would be more involved. He did in fact successfully repair the problem by the simpler means. Would recommend Waterworks and will use them again if needed.
We have been Jonle customers for over 30 years. Customer service is top notch! We have never been disappointed.
Colin showed up during the time window, listened to the issue, discussed options, gave me the estimates, then proceeded to fix the toilet issue. Been fine ever since.
replaced electronic filter for dust in my air handler in the attic that I run just about all year for the a/c & my hot water boiler during winter. JonLe never charged me. Thank You!
Furnace quit so I called them. They sent someone out today and fixed it so I have heat in 12 degrees weather. Very professional service. Friendly and informative. So glad I was referred to them. Need a switch not a new furnace.
Everyone with whom I spoke were professional and understanding of my issue. However, the tech was quick ,neat and knowledgeable, I felt the price for the installation was a little high but it was similar to other companies.
Kevin came out and did a good job. Nice guy pleasant to talk to and very professional.
Waterworks replaced our ice maker water line valve as it was leaking. The technician, Conrad Enoch, was excellent and knowledgeable. I would use them again,
Extremely polite and patient while on the call and followed up perfectly with me afterwards.
Our technician, Chris, was great! He was very knowledgeable and confidently completed our repairs. A+++
Jonle will quote a price in advance, show up on time, with professional and friendly technicians. You can’t ask for more than that.
Mark was very efficient, professional ad took time to explain all he did for me. Even took pictures. He was great!
Jonlee always provides great expertise, service & courtesy. Very happy with their services.
Available same day as I called. On time. Neat and respectful, went immediately to inspect the problem, provided an estimate, and began repairs. Completed quickly and efficiently. Left no mess. All good.
Both techs were very professional and friendly and did a great job with our plumbing projects. The only problem was that they left a lot of solder splashes and blobs on the basement floor, could have done a better job of cleaning up. The upstairs laundry room project was done very well and everything was clean when they left.
Austin was knowledgeable and professional. If needed I would call on Waterworks again.
We move in 10 years ago. Several year ago we had JonLe service our two systems. Our AC units we’re now 15 years old and needed replaced along with the coils. JonLe gave us great prices, great service and the staff finished the job on both systems in one day. Couldn’t be happier, Thanks JonLe John A.
Peter was straight to the point, kind, professional, and prompt. Exceeded my expectations.
We feel that your salesperson and the technicians where very experienced. Happy with the entire service.
We are long-time customers of Jonle. Their staff is always on time, thorough, clean and very professional. And today was nonexception. Mark was great!
We have used Jonle Heating and cooling for more than 30 years. They have always been great to work with!
John Davis was the technician from Waterworks and he was very efficient, professional and courteous
I have been using Jonle for over 20 years. They installed a new furnace last year. Today they did the bi-annual inspection/tune up. Mark Johnston was the technician. He was extremely thorough. Documented/photographed and explained every step of the service. I could not be more pleased. A real pro!!
I needed to have a new kitchen faucet installed. Waterworks was recommended to me by a friend. Just to be sure I checked out their reviews online, which added up to 4.7 out of 5 stars. I called at 7:45 a.m. the day after New Years Day (a Friday morning), and an actual human, who spoke understandable English, answered. I explained my problem, and she checked that day's scheduled openings, of which there were none. That didn't surprise me, but then I was happily surprised when she offered me an appointment Monday morning. I happily booked it, and, sure enough , Kameron showed up right around 8:30. After some show and tell on my part, he quickly, efficiently, and professionally got to work. He found that I needed new hot and cold water shut-off valves with new 1/4-turn angle stops for improved serviceability, which I authorized him to do after showing me the problem. He was most polite, personable and respectful to me and of my home, and knowledgable, finishing the job in a timely manner and to my complete satisfaction. I am putting Waterworks (and Kameron) on my speed dial for any future needs. Can't recommend them highly enough!
Always great service, Jason gave me good information on condition and age of my furnace. He was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Quick very detailed service ,friendly and knowledgeable service person.
Glad I chose Waterworks for my plumbing main valve fix - they quoted me $100 under Atlas Butler (where I was a member). Very professional!
