Garland combines two slab leak risk factors more than almost any other city we serve: dense Blackland Prairie clay that expands and contracts dramatically through DFW's wet-dry cycle, and a large stock of 1960s–1980s homes with copper supply pipe embedded in the original slab. When that clay moves, it stresses the pipe joints. Copper fatigues. The leak that develops is often slow at first — noticed only as a rising water bill — then becomes unmistakable.
Electronic acoustic detection and pressure isolation let us pinpoint the break in a Garland slab without destructive guessing. We confirm the leak location before we pick up a jackhammer. Garland homeowners dealing with recurring slab issues often benefit from a full reroute — eliminating all the original slab copper — which carries a lifetime warranty from us.
