A warm spot on the floor. A meter that spins with everything off. A water bill that doubled. Slab leaks announce themselves quietly — get matched with a Lakeway pro who finds them without tearing up your house.

Nearly every home here sits on a concrete slab over ground that moves — expansive soil swelling and shrinking through drought-and-storm cycles, working on the copper lines beneath the foundation. Add hard water attacking pipe walls from the inside and decades of hot-line expansion cycles, and slab leaks become a when-not-if issue for older stock.
The tells: a bill that jumps with no lifestyle change, the meter creeping with every fixture off, warm floor patches (hot-line leaks are most common), running-water sounds in silent rooms, musty baseboards.
Detection is non-destructive now — electronic listening gear, pressure isolation, thermal imaging — locating the leak within a small area before anyone cuts anything. The fix becomes a targeted opening, not exploratory demolition.
Lakeway homes are big, glassy, and lake-facing — multi-system layouts fighting brutal west sun, with the original sections off Lakeway Boulevard now running equipment past the 12-year mark. Around Rough Hollow, Serene Hills, The Hills, and Flintrock Falls, foundation age maps almost perfectly to slab-leak risk — and the pros in our network know which Lakeway streets they've been under before. Lake Travis municipal water runs hard here, and well pockets on the edges of town run harder — scale is a fact of life for Lakeway water heaters and fixtures. In a market of high-value lake homes where comfort systems are a five-figure investment, not an afterthought, experience under these exact slabs is worth real money.
Most companies make you call, hold, and explain everything twice. We flipped it — you tell us once, we do the matching.
The form above takes two minutes — no account, no phone tree. More detail means a faster, better match.

Your pro diagnoses, quotes, and waits for your yes. No invoice roulette, no pressure — that's the network rule.
A first leak in a sound system often warrants a spot repair — or, frequently smarter, rerouting that line overhead through the attic in PEX and abandoning the under-slab run entirely. A second or third leak changes the conversation: whole-home repiping usually beats paying for detections and floor repairs one leak at a time.
Detection plus a spot repair or reroute typically runs low-to-mid four figures; whole-home repipes run higher and are quoted per house. Homeowner's insurance often covers access and detection even when the pipe itself isn't covered — the pros we match document everything so your claim has what it needs. Numbers first, always.
Pros who know Lakeway and Travis County — not a dispatcher across the metro sending whoever's free.
