Slab Leak Detection in Clermont
Locate a Concealed Leak Before Opening Floors or Concrete
A slab leak occurs in plumbing beneath or within a concrete slab foundation. Escaping water can travel under flooring and through building materials, so dampness or damage may appear far from the failed pipe. We use focused diagnostic methods to locate concealed water loss before recommending invasive access.
Warning signs may include a warm area on the floor, damp flooring, cracked or lifting tile, reduced water pressure, running-water sounds when fixtures are off, mold or mildew, and an unexplained increase in water use. One symptom doesn’t confirm the source, but several warning signs may warrant professional water leak detection.
Call (352) 830-0650 to arrange slab leak detection for your Clermont home or request emergency help for an active leak.
When to Request Slab Leak Service
Schedule an evaluation if moisture keeps returning, your water bill rises without explanation, or you hear water moving when faucets and appliances aren’t running. You can also perform a basic water meter test. Turn off fixtures and water-using appliances, then check whether the meter continues to move. Movement may indicate an active plumbing leak, although it won’t reveal the location.
Active water flow, spreading moisture, or water near electrical areas requires prompt attention. If it’s safe, shut off the main water supply, move vulnerable belongings away from wet areas, and document visible damage. Note when you first noticed dampness, warm flooring, unusual sounds, pressure changes, or increased water use.

How We Locate a Slab Leak
We begin by discussing the symptoms you’ve noticed and when they started. We then walk through the property, assess affected areas, and look for evidence that can distinguish an indoor concealed leak from outdoor or underground water loss.
Our evaluation may include:
- Moisture meter readings: We check building materials for moisture that may not be visible on the surface.
- Acoustic leak detection: Listening equipment helps us investigate sounds created by water escaping from concealed piping.
- Thermal imaging: Temperature patterns can identify areas that warrant closer testing.
- Findings review: We explain what the testing indicates and where access may be required.
After evaluating the source, we outline possible repair approaches, expected timelines, and how the work may affect your home. The appropriate plan depends on the confirmed location, pipe condition, plumbing layout, and access requirements.
