We offer a full range of slab leak services in Gorge, from detection to repair to concrete restoration. Whether you need emergency slab leak detection Gorge TX or a planned under-slab pipe replacement, we have the tools and the crew to get it done. Most of our Gorge work starts with leak detection, because finding the leak is half the battle. From there, we recommend the repair method that fits your home, your budget, and your timeline.
We use acoustic listening devices and pressure testing gauges to pinpoint slab leaks in Gorge homes. Whether you are in Gorge North or near the Burnside Border, we can usually confirm the leak location in under an hour. We check both hot and cold lines and mark the exact spot before any concrete is touched.
View details ↗02Electronic leak detection is our go-to for Gorge homes with finished floors. We use LeakTronics and American Leak Detection equipment to trace the leak without tearing up your tile or hardwood. This is especially useful in Gorge Vale where many homes have original flooring that is hard to replace.
View details ↗03Thermal imaging cameras from FLIR let us see temperature differences under the slab. In Gorge, where the water table is high, this helps us distinguish between a true slab leak and groundwater intrusion. We use this alongside other tools to confirm the diagnosis before we recommend repair.
View details ↗04Acoustic listening devices pick up the sound of water escaping under pressure. For Gorge homes with copper pipes, this is often the fastest way to find a pinhole leak. We use RIDGID and General Pipe Cleaners equipment to listen through the slab and narrow down the location.
View details ↗05Once we find the leak, we repair the pipe under the slab. In Gorge, we often deal with copper pipes that have pinhole leaks or galvanized pipes that are corroded. We use pipe clamps and couplings for spot repairs, or we replace the damaged section if the pipe is too far gone.
View details ↗06If your under-slab pipes are failing in multiple spots, replacement is often the better investment. We replace copper or galvanized lines with PEX or PVC, which are more resistant to corrosion. In Gorge, we recommend this for homes older than 40 years with a history of leaks.
View details ↗07Tunneling lets us access under-slab pipes without breaking your floor. We dig a small access tunnel from outside the foundation, repair the pipe, then backfill and compact the soil. This is a good option for Gorge homes with expensive flooring or post-tension slabs that cannot be cut.
View details ↗08When tunneling is not an option, we break and remove concrete to access the pipe. We use concrete saws and jackhammers to cut a clean opening, then remove the concrete without damaging surrounding areas. In Gorge, we take extra care with older slabs that may have rebar or post-tension cables.
View details ↗09After the repair, we patch the concrete and restore the floor. We use concrete patch mix that matches the existing slab as closely as possible. For Gorge homeowners, we can also recommend flooring contractors if you need tile or hardwood replaced after the repair.
View details ↗10Slab leaks can undermine your foundation if water washes away soil under the slab. In Gorge, where the water table is already high, this is a real concern. We repair the leak and assess the foundation for any movement or cracking that needs attention.
View details ↗11Your main water line runs under the slab and can develop leaks over time. We repair water lines in Gorge homes using pipe clamps, couplings, or replacement sections. If the line is old and corroded, we may recommend a full replacement to prevent future leaks.
View details ↗12When a water line is too damaged to repair, we replace it. We run new PEX or copper lines, often routing them through the attic or walls to avoid future slab work. In Gorge, this is a common solution for homes with galvanized pipes that are past their prime.
View details ↗13Sewer line leaks under the slab can cause odors and backups. We use video pipe inspection cameras to find the problem, then repair the line with pipe clamps or replacement sections. In Gorge, we often find cast iron sewer lines that have cracked or corroded.
View details ↗14If your sewer line is collapsed or badly damaged, replacement is the only option. We replace cast iron or PVC sewer lines with new PVC, ensuring proper slope and connections. For Gorge homes, we can often route the new line outside the foundation to avoid future slab work.
View details ↗15Drain line leaks under the slab can cause slow drains and water damage. We repair drain lines using pipe clamps, couplings, or replacement sections. In Gorge, we often find that tree roots have infiltrated older drain lines, causing blockages and leaks.
View details ↗16When drain lines are too damaged to repair, we replace them. We run new PVC drain lines, often routing them through walls or attics to avoid future slab work. This is a common solution for Gorge homes with cast iron drains that have rusted through.
View details ↗17Pipe rerouting moves the pipe out of the slab and into the walls or attic. This avoids future slab leaks and makes repairs easier. In Gorge, we recommend rerouting for homes with recurring slab leaks or post-tension slabs that cannot be cut.
View details ↗18Pipe relining creates a new pipe inside the old one, sealing leaks without excavation. We use epoxy pipe lining for water and drain lines. This is a good option for Gorge homes with pipes that are corroded but still structurally sound.
View details ↗19Epoxy pipe lining is a trenchless repair method that seals leaks and extends pipe life. We apply epoxy to the inside of the pipe, creating a smooth, corrosion-resistant lining. For Gorge homeowners, this can add decades to the life of copper or galvanized pipes.
View details ↗20Pinhole leaks are small but can waste thousands of gallons of water. We repair pinhole leaks in copper pipes using pipe clamps or replacement sections. In Gorge, we often find pinhole leaks in homes with high water pressure or corrosive water.
View details ↗21Copper pipes are durable but can develop leaks over time. We repair copper pipe leaks using soldered couplings or compression fittings. In Gorge, we often find copper pipes that have pinhole leaks due to age or water chemistry.
View details ↗22PEX pipes are flexible and resistant to corrosion, but they can still leak. We repair PEX pipe leaks using couplings and crimp rings. In Gorge, PEX is common in newer homes and additions, and we carry the tools to repair it on the spot.
View details ↗23PVC pipes are used for drain and sewer lines, and they can crack or separate. We repair PVC pipe leaks using couplings and primer. In Gorge, we often find PVC drain lines that have been damaged by tree roots or ground movement.
View details ↗24Cast iron pipes are common in older Gorge homes and can rust through over time. We repair cast iron pipe leaks using pipe clamps or replacement sections. If the pipe is too far gone, we recommend replacement with PVC.
View details ↗25Galvanized pipes are prone to corrosion and leaks. We replace galvanized pipes with PEX or copper, often routing the new lines through walls or attics. In Gorge, this is a common upgrade for homes built before 1970.
View details ↗26Water heater leaks can be caused by a faulty valve, a cracked tank, or a loose connection. We repair water heater leaks in Gorge homes, and if the tank is cracked, we recommend replacement. We work on both gas and electric units.
View details ↗27When a water heater is beyond repair, we replace it. We install tank and tankless units, and we haul away the old one. For Gorge homeowners, we can recommend the right size and type based on your household needs.
View details ↗28High water pressure can damage pipes and cause leaks. We repair or replace pressure regulator valves to keep your water pressure in the safe range. In Gorge, we often find that high pressure contributes to pinhole leaks in copper pipes.
View details ↗29A faulty main shut-off valve can leave you unable to stop water in an emergency. We repair or replace main shut-off valves in Gorge homes. We test the valve after repair to ensure it works when you need it.
View details ↗Slab leak repair in Gorge requires a different approach than in other parts of Victoria County. The high water table near the Gorge Waterway means we often have to rule out groundwater intrusion before we confirm a slab
Groundwater can mask the sound of a slab leak, making detection harder. It also increases the risk of soil erosion under the slab, which can lead to foundation movement.
We use a combination of acoustic listening devices and thermal imaging to distinguish between groundwater and a true slab leak. We also check the foundation for signs of movement and recommend soil stabilization if needed.

Galvanized pipes corrode from the inside out, and cast iron pipes rust through. Both are common in Gorge homes built before 1970, and both are prone to leaks under the slab.
We inspect the pipes with video pipe inspection cameras to assess their condition. If the pipes are too far gone, we recommend replacement with PEX or PVC, which are more durable and resistant to corrosion.

Post-tension slabs have cables running through them, and cutting into one can be dangerous and expensive. This limits our options for accessing the leak.
We use tunneling or pipe rerouting to avoid cutting the slab. If we must cut, we use a concrete saw with a diamond blade and follow the post-tension cable layout to avoid damaging the cables.
