Need Sewer and Under Slab Tunnel Plumbing Repairs & Installation?
Most Texas homes are built on concrete slab foundations. The plumbing is located beneath the foundation; before pouring the concrete for the foundation, your plumbing contractor positions the plumbing that provides water to your home.
If one of these pipes cracks or breaks, you’ll have a water leak under the foundation. Leaking water can result in substantial foundation damage because the water washes away the stabilizing soil beneath the foundation. This soil loss creates an unstable foundation for your home, which results in sinking foundations, and cracked walls and ceilings.
At All About Plumbing, we provide foundation tunneling services for plumbing repairs and installation in League City, Texas. Our expert staff uses cutting-edge equipment for detecting and repairing water leaks before they cause extensive damage to your home. If you suspect plumbing leaks under your foundation, call for repairs before expensive home damage happens.

Plumbing Lines Found Under Your Slab
Whether you have city or well water, the plumbing for these supply lines is under your foundation.
Also, the water leaving your home travels through sewer pipes under your slab foundation. The plumbing for this outgoing water flows through under-slab plumbing to the city sewer system or your septic system.
How Do I Know If I Might Have a Slab Leak?
You can identify water leaks under your foundation by checking for pooling water around the perimeter of your foundation. If you see wet soil or soil erosion, these are signs of under-slab plumbing leaks.
You can see other indications of foundation damage by inspecting the walls and ceilings inside your home for cracks, doors that won’t close, or molding separation. Your rooms might also have a musty smell from water under the slab.
How Do You Find a Leak Underneath a Slab?
Our trained plumbing technicians use specialized equipment for locating foundation leaks in your plumbing lines.
These include snake cameras that provide high-definition images of the plumbing lines under your home and isolation testing with inflatable rubber bladders. These allow us to test every section of your drain pipes.
If the leak is in your water supply lines, it causes more damage because the pressure forces water out of the damaged pipes, causing severe soil erosion.
How Do You Fix an Under-Slab Leak?
Most under slab repairs require us to redirect the plumbing so it’s above ground. The redirected pipes are hidden inside the walls or behind your cabinets, eliminating future slab leaks.
Another method is to conduct under slab tunneling, which is a more extensive plumbing repair involving an overhaul of all the plumbing beneath your foundation.
