We use acoustic listening devices and pressure testing gauges to isolate the leak location under your Tillicum slab. Most detections take 1-2 hours. We mark the floor with tape so you can see exactly where the problem is before we open anything up.
View details ↗02Electronic leak detection equipment picks up the sound and pressure signature of water escaping under concrete. In Tillicum's older homes near Cuthbert Holmes Park, this is how we find pinhole leaks in copper lines without breaking the slab first.
View details ↗03FLIR thermal imaging cameras show us temperature differences on your floor that reveal hot water line leaks. In Tillicum South, where slabs often have hot water lines running under tile or laminate, this is the fastest way to pinpoint the leak.
View details ↗04Acoustic listening devices amplify the sound of water escaping under your slab. We use LeakTronics and SubSurface Instruments gear to hear leaks through 4-6 inches of concrete. This works especially well in Tillicum's quieter residential neighborhoods.
View details ↗05Once we've located the leak, we repair the under-slab pipe with copper couplings or PEX transitions, depending on what's already there. Most repairs in Tillicum's 1960s homes involve cutting out a section of failed copper and replacing it with new pipe.
View details ↗06When the pipe under your Tillicum slab is too corroded to patch, we replace the whole run. We use trenchless tunneling equipment to minimize concrete removal. Most replacements in Tillicum take 1-3 days depending on the length of the line.
View details ↗07Tunneling lets us access under-slab pipes without breaking your entire floor. We dig access tunnels from outside the foundation, make the repair, then backfill and compact. This is common in Tillicum's older neighborhoods where preserving original flooring matters.
View details ↗08When tunneling isn't an option, we cut and remove concrete with concrete saws and jackhammers. We protect your flooring and walls, haul away the debris, and keep the work area contained. Most slab openings in Tillicum homes are 2x2 to 3x3 feet.
View details ↗09After the pipe repair, we patch the slab with concrete patch mix matched to your existing floor. We level it, finish it, and let it cure. If you have tile or laminate, we can recommend a flooring pro to complete the restoration.
View details ↗10Foundation leaks in Tillicum often show up as cracks in the slab or water pooling at the baseboards. We trace the leak to its source, repair the pipe, and seal the foundation penetration. Left alone, foundation movement gets worse.
View details ↗11Your main water line runs under your Tillicum yard and into your slab. When it leaks, you'll see a spike in your water bill or a wet spot in the yard. We repair copper, PEX, and PVC water lines with pipe clamps and couplings rated for underground use.
View details ↗12If your Tillicum home still has galvanized water lines, replacement is usually the better call. Galvanized pipes corrode from the inside out and restrict flow. We replace them with PEX or copper and pressure-test the new line before backfilling.
View details ↗13Sewer line leaks under Tillicum slabs cause backups and odors. We run video pipe inspection cameras to find the break, then repair or replace the damaged section. Most sewer repairs in Tillicum are done with trenchless methods to avoid tearing up landscaping.
View details ↗14When a Tillicum sewer line is collapsed or root-invaded beyond repair, we replace it. We use pipe bursting or open-cut methods depending on the yard layout. New PVC sewer lines come with a warranty and pass city inspection.
View details ↗15Drain line leaks under Tillicum slabs often start as slow clogs that corrode the pipe. We locate the damaged section with a SeeSnake camera, cut it out, and replace it with PVC. Most drain repairs are done in a single day.
View details ↗16If your Tillicum home has cast iron drain lines under the slab, they're likely rusted and scaled. We replace them with PVC, which lasts decades and won't corrode. This is a common job in Tillicum's older residential neighborhoods.
View details ↗17Sometimes the best fix is to reroute the pipe entirely, especially in Tillicum homes where the original line runs under a load-bearing wall or finished floor. We run new pipe through the attic or walls to bypass the problem area.
View details ↗18Pipe relining lets us repair a leaking under-slab pipe from the inside without digging. We pull an epoxy-saturated liner through the pipe, inflate it, and cure it in place. This works well for Tillicum's copper and cast iron lines that aren't fully collapsed.
View details ↗19Epoxy pipe lining is a trenchless fix for pinhole leaks and small cracks in under-slab pipes. We clean the line, apply the epoxy, and cure it. In Tillicum's older homes, this can add 20+ years to a copper line without breaking the slab.
View details ↗20Pinhole leaks in copper lines are common in Tillicum's 1960s and 1970s homes. They start small but can dump hundreds of gallons under your slab. We locate the pinhole, cut out the damaged section, and splice in new copper.
View details ↗21Copper lines under Tillicum slabs corrode over time, especially in areas with aggressive soil. We repair copper leaks with couplings and new copper, or replace the section if the pipe is too thin. We pressure-test every repair before closing the slab.
View details ↗22PEX is common in newer Tillicum builds, but it can still leak at fittings or from abrasion against concrete. We repair PEX with crimp or push-fit couplings rated for under-slab use. Most PEX repairs take 2-4 hours.
View details ↗23PVC drain and water lines under Tillicum slabs can crack from ground movement or poor installation. We cut out the damaged section and replace it with new PVC, solvent-welded and pressure-tested. Most PVC repairs are done same-day.
View details ↗24Cast iron drain lines in Tillicum's older homes rust from the inside out. When they leak under the slab, we replace the damaged section with PVC or cast iron, depending on what's around it. We use pipe clamps and couplings rated for underground use.
View details ↗25Galvanized water lines in Tillicum homes from the 1950s are often clogged and leaking. We replace them with PEX or copper, running new lines through the attic or walls to avoid breaking the slab when possible. This is a full-day job for most homes.
View details ↗26Water heater leaks in Tillicum often show up as water pooling near the base of the tank. We repair the leak, replace the drain valve or T&P valve, and check the anode rod. If the tank itself is rusted through, we'll recommend replacement.
View details ↗27When your Tillicum water heater is beyond repair, we replace it with a new unit sized for your home. We haul away the old tank, install the new one, and check the gas or electrical connections. Most replacements take 3-4 hours.
View details ↗28High water pressure can cause slab leaks in Tillicum homes. We test your pressure with a gauge, and if it's over 80 PSI, we repair or replace the pressure regulator valve. This protects your pipes and fixtures from stress.
View details ↗29If your main shut-off valve in Tillicum is stuck or leaking, we repair or replace it. This is the valve you need to work in an emergency, so we make sure it turns freely and seals tight. Most repairs take 1-2 hours.
View details ↗When we roll up to a Tillicum address, we start by asking you what you've noticed: a spike in your water bill, a hot spot on the floor, the sound of running water when nothing's on. Then we go to work with acoustic liste
Damp soil accelerates corrosion on copper and galvanized pipes under Tillicum slabs, leading to more pinhole leaks and under-slab pipe corrosion than in drier parts of Victoria County.
We use epoxy pipe lining and pipe relining to seal the inside of pipes without digging, which protects against future corrosion. For pipes too far gone, we replace with PEX, which doesn't corrode in wet soil.
