A slab leak is more than just a plumbing issue—it can compromise your home’s foundation, lead to mold growth, and cause expensive structural damage. If you’ve noticed rising water bills, damp flooring, or unexplained water sounds, you may have a hidden slab leak.
At The Waterworks, we specialize in non-invasive slab leak detection and repair, helping homeowners and businesses across Columbus, Ohio, and surrounding areas protect their property and plumbing systems.
Call us today to schedule a slab leak inspection and repair service! Â
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! Â
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! Â
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. Â

Todd was my technician and he did an excellent job. I needed my sink unclogged today and nobody was able to help me except Waterworks. I’ve used this company for over 35 years in my place of business and always trusted their reliability and quality of work.
I’ve used Waterworks a few times now and have always had excellent service, problems fixed quickly and prices have always been reasonable. When I have plumbing issues Waterworks is the first company I call. John was out today to fix and replace our sump pump and did a great job!
Easy to schedule service, but price is high. It seemed like the tech made up the price on the spot. Works was well done. Great in a pinch but I would shop around if there is time.
The service man was very prompt, polite professional, and got the job done!
I called in a panick with water in my basement and the technician was out to my house in less than 2 hours on a holiday weekend.
Matt Sunnenberg did a wonderful job diagnosing the problem with our AC. He knew what the issue was before opening the compartment to show me the AC coil unit. 19 years old and the rust and decay of the unit was amassing to see. Matt explained all of our options and the cost involved. His advice to replace all of the AC components made the most sense and we felt most confident in his recommendation. Because of the delay in getting the new AC unit ordered and installed, Matt did us a big favor by adding enough Freon to our existing unit in order to keep the house cool temporarily. Thank you, Mike
The appointment couldn't have gone better. It appears that the hose from the water softener had come loose from the drain pipe and that's what was causing the water problem. Thanks for coming out . I hope the problem was taken care of. I wasnt charged as he was there for less than 15 minutes.
We have been dealing with this company for 30 years. They are top notch and all their technicians are very professional and knowledgeable. We subscribe to their maintenance contracts and as a result we have never had a breakdown. They don't try to sell you stuff that you don't need.
We have used Jonle for all our HVAC needs for many years. They are always responsive, on time, respectful of your property, and do what they say they are going to do. We highly recommend them.
Jonle was wonderful to work with from the start. Patrick was excellent- knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and quickly followed up with a quote and timeframe even though the service manager was out of the office that day. I received prompt communication the next morning about the tech’s arrival window, additional text reminders, and even a call the following morning asking if we’d like to move up our timeframe due to a cancellation. Our service tech Chad was kind, professional, got the job done quickly and spent time answering my questions & talking me through everything. I felt very confident in the work he did and information he provided. Their pricing was competitive and significantly better than one of “bigger” names out there (a company we will never be using again now that we’ve found Jonle). It was more in line with other fairly priced companies. Everything was excellent from start to finish and we will use them again in the future and also recommend to others!
Jonle 's employees are very courteous, experienced, and knowledgeable. I can always count on them when needed. They keep my system up and running!
We've been using JonLe for all our HVAC for many years. They are an A+ company with great people. The technicians are friendly, experienced, and very knowledgeable. We use their maintenance plan and get two checkups a year. Best deal ever. JonLe is a fantastic company and I never expect to use anyone else.
Matt was great and resolved my issues for a reasonable cost. AC up and running
Great experience this morning with Matt , prompt, professional,Went right to work. Diagnosed the issue, anserded my questions,made the repair. Thank You...!
Technician very polite, professional. He was on time and actually early for my scheduled appointment. I have been using Jonle for over 30 years. Never been disappointed.
Waterworks has been a true partner in all aspects of plumbing repairs. At any moment, I can call and the representatives are truly dedicated to ensuring a pleasant experience. The technicians are very professional and take the time to ensure accuracy with all repairs. I will definitely advocate Waterworks for all your plumbing repairs.
Waterworks is my go to company. I have used them many times. They are quick to respond and do a fabulous job!! Their employees are knowledgeable, and provide excellent customer service.
No complaints over the four or five years Jonle has kept our heating and AC working smoothly. Furnace broke down in the freezing weather and they were out the same day, replacing it faster than seemed possible.
JonLe has knowledge technicians who arrive on time and are very good at what they do. They explain everything being done and are proactive on all maintenance items.
We have used Jonle for 20 years and Steve has been our technician the entire time. I keep asking for Steve. He is excellent.. We've had our furnace and A/C unit replaced by Jonle and have saved money on our utility bill. I will not use any other heating company. You can trust this company to do the job right the first time.
Very professional service! I have yearly maintenance done and they are great every year!
I use waterworks for annual maintenance of my drain lines. They are professional and willing to accommodate any scheduling issues. Luke came out today and did a great job.
Been using JonLe for approx 7 or 8 years. My Tech Tim is Great. Very knowledgeable takes his time and leaves everything spotless. Give them a try. You will be .satisfied.
Todd and The Waterworks performed another 5 star service. Greatly appreciate their plumbing and HVAC services.
On a Tuesday evening at 5pm, we described the problem to Waterworks expecting to have to wait a couple of weeks for an appointment. Instead, they were able to get us on the schedule for Thursday afternoon (only 2 days later)! That day, Brian, our plumber, called and texted to say he when he would arrive, and he did right on schedule. He looked at the problem and identified a couple of different ways it could be handled. Then, Brian looked at pricing for each option to determine the one that was most long lasting yet cost effective. He then worked quickly but carefully to complete the job. And Brian did a great job cleaning up! Couldn't be happier with the job.
Very professional, top-notch service. We had an issue with our sump pump, it was resolved and exceeded my expectations. Great job.
I've been with Jonle for years. As always, the service man was excellent, explained everything, answered all my questions, set everything back to my preference, and even brought in my Amazon package from my porch.
We called and got an appointment immediately. Omar came out and looked at our sink and clogged drain letting us know every step what was going on and what he may be doing going forward until our drain was clear. He was very respectful and friendly and would definitely call them again.
Conrad came in and did a thorough check of the pipes. Fixed the leak and potential leak areas. Fast, friendly and did a great job!
Mark was professional, courteous, thorough and very informative. He was on time and efficient.
Waterworks came right out and saved the day. I had a leak in my crawl space. He came out found the problem and fixed quickly. And didnt cost a fortune.
Repaired previously installed outdoor faucet fixture at no charge even though it was out of warranty (by a week or so)
We received great, prompt and courteous service from Jonle when replacing our furnace. They didn't use high pressure tactics, pleasantly answered all of our questions. The installers were efficient, clean and professional. Our sales person, Jeff Gray followed through until everything was complete and he knew we were satisfied.
Chad did a great job . He serviced the AC unit, and he had to return to finish the job when the temperature cooperated.
I have been a customer of Jonle for 18 years. They have always been very professional and dependable. I would highly recommend Jonle for all your Heating and AC needs.
I tried to do what I thought was a simple diy turned disaster lol. Peter was great ,very knowledgeable fixed the pipe in my shower. Would recommend Peter and waterworks plan to use again for future projects. Thanks
Technician showed up on time, fixed the two problems, cleaned up, and gave us good advice for future preventative maintenance.
