Types Of Plumbing Leaks
Visible leaks like a running toilet or a dripping faucet are serious as they are wasting water, and they signal that a bigger problem could arise. But a Turbo Plumbing & Rooter professional can have those items repaired for you very quickly and at a reasonable cost. It is the leak that is hidden beneath the slab of you Encino home that could be the difficult one to locate and repair. These hidden leaks are the ones that can go undetected and will create a breeding ground for harmful black mold. But our leak detection specialists have the expertise needed to locate and eliminate even these hidden leaks.
What Is A Slab Leak?
Getting plumbing lines into a home built on a slab is a little more challenging than some other types of homes. The pipes are run under the concrete foundation and then stubbed up into your house at the locations of the fixtures. And when one of these pipes begins to leak, it can be very hard to find the exact location of the issue known as a slab leak. But finding and fixing the leak is critical to the integrity of your home and the health of your loved ones.
Locating Slab Leaks
Modern-day slab leak technology involves the use of expensive equipment that amplifies the sound of running water. Using these tools, a Turbo Plumbing & Rooter technician will be able to actually hear where the water leak is located underneath the slab of your home. This is a far less destructive method of leak detection than the low tech plumbers use. They rely on a best guess and a sledgehammer to locate the leaks under your home.
Repairing A Slab Leak
There are several ways to repair a leak under your concrete foundation. The most favorable is to abandon the leaking pipe and re-route a new pipe through a crawlspace or attic. The new pipe is then run through the walls to get to the fixtures it needs to supply. But some homes do not have these spaces and make this process impossible. Our second choice is to tunnel under your foundation to access the leak from the outside. This does make a larger mess in your yard, but there is little or no mess inside your home. The final option is to dig through the foundation only at the location of the leak to make the repair. This is more expensive as we then need to repair your foundation.

Wow!! I've never experienced such thoughtful customer service. I needed a plumber to fix a water line for my new refrigerator and didn't know who to call. I submitted my request on Angie's List and within a minute or so, I got a call from Turbo. Edwin came to my house within the hour to assess the situation and offer me a free estimate. The problem was solved within a couple hours and he also did a full assessment of the plumbing in my house to make sure everything was running smoothly. I am thoroughly pleased with their service and highly recommend Turbo!!
I was in need of plumbing services and found turbo on Yelp. Service was excellent, quickly responding to my request and penciled me in the same day for a quote. Alejandro was very professional and explained the matter in a very understanding way. If anyone is in need of plumbing service, I would recommend this company. Thank you Turbo Plumbing for your excellent Service!!!
