Many homeowners have never heard of or experienced a slab leak and aren't aware of the severity of the issue. In Florida, traditional homes are built on top of a concrete pad called a foundation. The foundation keeps the home from slanting or sinking as the ground settles, which is especially important in the scorching summer months. In typical home construction, important pipes run underneath this foundation. Any damage to these pipes is known as a slab leak.

Why Are Slab Leaks a Problem in the St. Augustine Area?
Slab leaks are a common problem in Florida. In older homes, the problem is usually due to faulty cast iron piping. Any home built before 1960 had cast-iron piping, and underground service lines can corrode over time, leading to problems with slab leaks. Copper pipes are also prone to this problem.
Soil shift is another problem common in the Palm Coast. Many homes are built on expansive soils that shift over time. This can create instability under the slab, resulting in leaks.
Slab leaks are problematic for two reasons. First, they run up your water bill. Second, they can damage your property. Continued leaking under the slab can cause your home's foundation to become unstable, leaving you at risk for cracks and other problems.
Slab leaks are issues to take seriously in Jacksonville. Call David Gray Plumbing at (904) 467-0784 to get help today.
