Slab leaks in pre-1970 homes
Why it happens here
Many Mission Hills homes were built with copper supply lines under the slab. Decades of soil movement and the valley's shrink-swell clay cause pinhole leaks and joint failures. The water stays hidden until the floor feels warm or the bill spikes.
Our approach
We trace the leak with a thermal imaging camera and moisture meter, then work with a plumber to reroute the line. After the repair, we extract and dry the affected flooring and subfloor without tearing out more than necessary.
