Slab leak

Definition

A water leak in pipes running through or beneath a home's concrete foundation. Detected electronically so the repair can be targeted instead of tearing up the whole slab.

Why this term matters

In plumbing, terminology often points to lifespan risk, leak prevention, and whether repair or replacement is the smarter spend.
