Slab Leak Detection in Georgetown, Texas
Plumbing issues are a part of every homeowner's experience, but not every problem needs a costly professional fix. From clogged drains to running toilets, many common plumbing problems can be handled with a few tools and basic know-how
A slab leak is one of the scariest plumbing problems for a Georgetown homeowner — water leaking under your foundation, often invisible until your water bill spikes or you find a warm spot on the floor. Bull Plumbing uses non-invasive detection methods to pinpoint slab leaks before any concrete gets cut.
Warning signs you may have a slab leak: Unexplained spike in your water bill. Sound of running water when no fixtures are on. Warm or hot spots on the floor (hot water line leak). Damp carpet or flooring in random areas. Reduced water pressure at multiple fixtures. Mildew smell coming from the floor. Foundation cracks worsening unexpectedly. Water meter spinning when everything is "off".
How we detect slab leaks: Acoustic listening equipment to hear water moving through the slab, infrared thermal cameras for hot water line leaks, line tracing to map exactly where the supply lines run under your foundation, and pressure testing to isolate which line is leaking. We find the leak before we touch concrete.
Why Georgetown homes get slab leaks
Georgetown's foundation soils — particularly the older neighborhoods (Old Town, San Gabriel Heights, Sun City) — shift seasonally with rainfall. That movement stresses copper supply lines under the slab, and pinhole leaks develop over time. Newer Georgetown construction (Wolf Ranch, Cole's Crossing) uses PEX, which fares better but isn't immune.
When we find a slab leak, you typically have two options: repair the failed line in place (cutting a small section of slab) or reroute the line through the attic and walls to abandon the slab section. We walk you through both, with honest pricing for each. Sometimes rerouting is actually cheaper and less destructive than tunneling under the foundation.
