Slab leaks under original concrete floors
Why it happens here
Most Arts District buildings sit on original slabs with copper supply lines that have been under pressure for 50 years or more. The soil here shifts with our wet-dry cycles, and that movement stresses the pipe until it cracks. You usually notice a warm floor or a spike in your water bill first.
Our approach
We locate the leak with acoustic equipment and a thermal imaging camera, then extract the water and dry the slab and flooring. We document the leak location for your plumber so the repair is targeted, not exploratory demolition.
