During the last housing boom, the homes in the Las Vegas and surrounding area were built as fast and cheap as possible.

During this builging process the quality of the products and the craftsmanship used were not always the best.

This is why today one of the most common issues homeowners deal with when it comes to their plumbing is the dreaded slab leak. A slab leak is any pipe that leaks under the foundation of your home.

There are several causes for slab leaks, but when it comes to the mass produced homes it is usually a flaw in the installation process of the copper piping under or inside of the concrete slab at the base of your home.

Other reasons include bad water chemistry eroding the piping, or movement of the earth from common foundation settlement to earthquake activity causing the pipes to become dented, punctured or broken.
