My Floor is Wet & I don't Know Why

2/5/2021 (Permalink)

If your floor is damp and you can't see where the water is coming from, you may have a slab leak. Early detection is key when it comes to a leak in your home’s slab foundation. If left undetected and unrepaired, a slab leak can eventually lead to thousands of dollars in water and structural damage to your home.

Signs that you have a slab leak include:

• A sudden, unexplained spike in water bills
• Water pooling where it shouldn’t
• Damp carpet or warped hard flooring
• Mold or mildew (visible or just the smell)
• A decrease in water pressure
• A water heater that’s constantly running
• Areas of the floor that are suddenly hot
