Residential and commercial applications
Slab leak detection is common for single-story homes, townhomes, and commercial buildings constructed on slab-on-grade foundations.
For Miami–Fort Lauderdale property owners
Homes in South Florida are typically built on concrete slabs that move slightly with moisture-rich soil. These movements put pressure on pipes embedded directly in the foundation, resulting in structural leaks that are difficult to find. The earlier a slab leak is detected, the better the chance of avoiding damages to the concrete foundation and interior flooring surfaces.
Our technology

We locate the leak first, so repairs open only what needs opening. No guesswork, no unnecessary demolition.
Thermal imaging cameras
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences behind walls and under floors caused by escaping water.
Acoustic listening
Amplified ground microphones pick up the sound of pressurized water leaking through concrete and soil.
Moisture meters and mapping
Readings in drywall, wood, and concrete trace moisture back toward its source.
Video pipe inspection
Flexible cameras inspect drain and sewer lines for breaks, offsets, and root intrusion.
