Slab leaks are a hidden danger that can cause significant damage to McKinney homes without immediate detection. They occur when water lines beneath your home's concrete slab foundation begin to leak, creating pools of water that seep into the soil and weaken your home's structure.

Unfortunately, these leaks often go unnoticed until they've caused extensive damage - by which point repairs can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Unexplained high water bills

  • Wet floors, carpet, or tiles, even after the area has been dried
  • The sound of water running when all faucets are turned off
  • A significant drop in water pressure
  • Cracks in walls or flooring
  • Warped wood floors, linoleum, or carpet
  • Fungus or mold growth on walls or floors
