Slab Leak Detection in Austin, TX

Service Overview

Advanced Slab Leak Detection Services for Protection that Lasts

Slab leaks can go unnoticed for weeks or even months, silently damaging your foundation and inflating your water bills. At Johnny Rooter, we specialize in finding and fixing these hidden leaks quickly and accurately. Using cutting-edge diagnostic technology, we’ll locate the source without tearing up your floors or concrete, minimizing both repair time and cost.

How Our Slab Leak Detection Works

Even a small leak under your slab can lead to structural damage, mold, and high water bills, especially in Austin. Finding and addressing a slab leak early saves you time, money, and a whole lot of stress.

Acoustic Slab Leak Detection

We use sensitive listening equipment to detect the faint sounds of water escaping under your slab. This allows us to identify leak zones quickly without cutting into floors or walls.

Thermal Imaging

Infrared scans show temperature differences caused by escaping water within the slab, allowing us to narrow our search quickly and effectively.

Tracer Gas Diagnostics

We use a safe, odorless gas to locate leaks with pinpoint accuracy. The gas seeps through cracks in hidden pipes, allowing us to identify the exact leak location without unnecessary digging or damage.

Advanced Vibration Analysis

We place sensors at different points along your plumbing lines to measure sound and vibration patterns. By comparing these signals, we can accurately find the leak’s exact location beneath the slab.
