A slab leak is one of the most urgent plumbing emergencies—left untreated, it can crack your foundation, warp floors, and cost $10,000+ in structural damage. At Leak Experts USA, we specialize in non-invasive slab leak detection and repair for homes in Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, and surrounding areas, with advanced services also available in Phoenix, Miami, and San Diego through our expanding partner network.
Call: (725) 677-2675
Don’t ignore these red flags—early detection saves thousands in repairs:
A single slab leak can waste 20,000+ gallons monthly
Indicates a broken hot water line under concrete
Shifting soil from water erosion destabilizes foundations
Moisture breeds toxic mold in carpets and drywall
Hissing behind walls when fixtures are off
Understanding why slab leaks happen helps prevent future issues:
Clay soils (common in Las Vegas) expand/contract, stressing pipes
Material | Lifespan | Failure Risks |
---|---|---|
Copper | 20–50 years | Pinhole leaks from acidic water |
Galvanized Steel | 40–60 years | Rusts from inside out |
PEX | 40+ years | Rodent damage (in some areas) |
Freeze-thaw cycles in North Las Vegas crack pipes
Call: (725) 677-2675
We use military-grade technology to pinpoint leaks under 12″ of concrete:
Acoustic sensors detect sound waves from pressurized leaks
• Accuracy: ±6 inches
Thermal cameras spot temperature anomalies from water seepage
Safe hydrogen gas identifies micro-leaks as small as 1/100th of a gallon/minute
Isolates supply lines to confirm leak location
Key Cost Factors
• Leak Depth (deeper = more labor)
• Pipe Material (copper vs. PEX repair costs)
• Foundation Type (post-tension slabs cost 20% more)
• Emergency Surcharge (after-hours/weekend)
Insurance Considerations
• Covered: Sudden pipe bursts (with documentation)
• Not Covered: Gradual corrosion or wear
