A slab leak occurs when a water line beneath your home’s foundation begins to leak, often from copper pinhole leaks, corrosion, or shifting soil under the concrete slab. These hidden leaks can lead to pooling under flooring, warm spots on the floor, low water pressure, and mold growth in addition to major water damage, foundation cracks, and rising water bills if not addressed quickly.
Alexander Services provides emergency slab leak detection and repair in Apex, NC, using non-invasive methods such as acoustic listening, thermal imaging, and line tracing to pinpoint the source without unnecessary demolition.

We use state-of-the-art electronic leak detection to pinpoint the exact location of your slab leak without unnecessary demolition.
Once identified, we present your options clearly and perform the repair with minimal disruption to your home.
Corrosion, shifting soil, or poor installation can all cause underground pipes to crack. Over time, even a pinhole leak can undermine your foundation and promote mold growth. We not only repair the leak but also assess the cause to prevent future occurrences.
Our equipment allows us to detect leaks accurately through concrete, using sound amplification and thermal imaging.
This approach eliminates guesswork and ensures the repair is completed efficiently and correctly.

You may notice warm or damp spots on your floor, reduced water pressure, or water meter activity even when faucets are off. Unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when everything is turned off, or visible cracks in your foundation can also signal a hidden slab leak.
Early detection is key. Our team uses advanced slab leak detection technology to confirm leaks, locate the source, and repair them before they cause costly water damage or further structural issues to your home.

We customize slab leak repair methods based on your home’s plumbing layout, pipe material, and the severity of water intrusion under the foundation.
Our licensed plumbers use non-invasive leak detection to pinpoint the problem and recommend the most cost-effective, long-term solution for your property.
Common approaches include direct access spot repairs, pipe rerouting above the slab, trenchless relining, or full repiping or replacement when chronic copper pinhole leaks or corrosion are present.
When a single section of pipe is affected, a precise spot repair is performed by opening the slab at the exact leak location and replacing the damaged copper or PVC segment.
This targeted slab penetration minimizes demolition, keeps most flooring intact, and is often the fastest, most affordable fix for newer plumbing systems with isolated failures.
For homes with accessible lines, this method delivers quick water restoration while preserving the foundation and avoiding unnecessary rerouting.
If the plumbing network is aging or shows multiple slab leaks, rerouting water lines through walls or the attic can eliminate future under-slab failures entirely.
Running new PEX or copper above the slab avoids ongoing foundation leaks, reduces future jackhammering, and provides a higher-reliability path for long-term performance.
In cases of systemic corrosion, whole-home repiping replaces vulnerable lines end-to-end, stabilizing water pressure, preventing hidden leaks, and improving overall plumbing reliability.

A slab leak occurs when a water pipe beneath your home’s concrete foundation develops a crack or hole, causing water to seep under the slab. This type of leak can affect both hot and cold water lines, and may threaten the integrity of your foundation if not addressed quickly.
Common slab leak signs include warm or hot spots on your floors, unexplained dampness or wet concrete, pooling water around the foundation, mold growth, the sound of running water when taps are off, or a sudden spike in your water bill. Early slab leak detection is crucial to minimizing damage.
Not necessarily. Advanced slab leak detection technology lets us accurately pinpoint the leak, often allowing for trenchless slab leak repair methods. In many cases, we can reroute or line pipes with minimal or no excavation, preserving your flooring and minimizing disruption.
Most residential slab leak repairs take one to two days. The exact timeframe depends on the leak’s location, the extent of water damage, and the chosen repair method (traditional excavation vs. trenchless solutions). Once inspected, we’ll provide a clear timeline and keep you informed every step of the way.
Many homeowner insurance policies cover sudden, accidental slab leaks and related water damage. We supply detailed inspection findings, photos, and repair documentation to support your insurance claim and help streamline the approval process. Always consult your policy or agent for specifics.
Slab leaks are often caused by factors such as pipe corrosion, shifting soil, high water pressure, poor installation, or aging copper or PEX pipes. Scheduling regular plumbing inspections, monitoring water pressure, and addressing minor leaks early can help prevent costly slab leaks in the future.
