Courtesy Plumbing stands out in Covina for slab leak repair and detection, offering a blend of expert service, customer care, and innovative technology. Here’s what sets us apart:
Slab leaks are the most damaging type of plumbing leak. Because they occur under the slab foundation of your home or place of business, they can go unnoticed for a long time, causing you to waste several gallons of water and a sudden surge in your water bill. Even with just a pinhole-sized slab leak, continuous water saturation of your foundation can result in wood rot, mold growth, and other structural damage.
After detecting a slab leak, our team will evaluate the extent of the damage and the best course of action. This may involve a direct repair of the leaking pipe, rerouting the pipe to bypass the damaged section, or, in some cases, replacing a larger section of piping. Our goal is to choose the most efficient and effective repair method that minimizes damage to your property and ensures a long-lasting solution.
The time required to detect and repair a slab leak varies depending on the leak’s location and severity. Leak detection typically takes a few hours, while the repair can range from a day to several days. We strive to work efficiently and minimize disruption, and we’ll provide you with a more accurate timeline once we assess the situation.
In most cases, you won’t have to leave your home. Our team works carefully to ensure that the process is as non-intrusive as possible. However, depending on the extent of the repair and your comfort, you may choose to vacate the premises. We will communicate with you throughout the process so you can make the best decision for your situation.
Coverage for slab leak repair varies by insurance policy. Some homeowners insurance policies cover the cost of tearing out and replacing the slab but not the repair of the actual pipe. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your coverage details. Courtesy Plumbing can provide documentation and assistance to help with your claim process.
The cost of repairing a slab leak varies widely based on the leak’s location, the repair method chosen, and the extent of the damage. Simple repairs may cost a few hundred dollars, while more complex repairs that require extensive excavation or pipe rerouting can run into thousands. Courtesy Plumbing offers competitive pricing and honest, transparent quotes to ensure you understand the costs involved before we begin work.
