Hear from Our Customers
When we’re done, you won’t hear water running when nothing’s on. Your floors won’t have mysterious warm spots or dampness. Your water bill goes back to what it should be.
Most importantly, you stop worrying about your foundation cracking or your rental property flooding when guests arrive. The leak is found, fixed permanently, and your home is protected from the kind of water damage that costs tens of thousands to repair later.
No more calling multiple plumbers who can’t figure out where the leak is coming from. No more temporary patches that fail when mountain weather hits. Just a proper repair that handles Tahoma’s unique conditions and keeps working.
We’ve been handling slab leak repairs in Tahoma and the surrounding Lake Tahoe area for years. We’re not some big company sending technicians from hours away who don’t understand mountain plumbing.
We know how elevation changes affect water pressure. We know what happens to older cabin plumbing when winter hits. We know that vacation rental owners need repairs that won’t fail during peak season, and permanent residents need solutions that last through multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
When we fix your slab leak, we use methods and materials that work in these conditions. We stand behind our work because that’s how you build a reputation in a small mountain community like Tahoma.
First, we use advanced detection equipment to pinpoint exactly where your slab leak is located. No guesswork, no unnecessary digging. Our thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices find the leak through your concrete foundation without damaging your floors.
Next, we determine the best repair method for your specific situation. This might be trenchless repair that preserves your flooring, targeted pipe replacement, or rerouting if multiple sections are compromised. We explain your options and give you upfront pricing before any work begins.
Then we complete the repair using the right materials for mountain conditions. We don’t just patch the immediate problem – we fix it so it stays fixed through winter freezes, soil shifts, and everything else Tahoma weather throws at it. Finally, we test everything thoroughly and clean up completely before we leave.

Our slab leak repair service includes professional leak detection, permanent repair using appropriate methods for your situation, and full restoration of your concrete foundation. We handle both hot and cold water line leaks, drain line issues, and the foundation work needed afterward.
In Tahoma’s mountain environment, we see specific challenges that require local expertise. Pipes freeze and burst during winter. Soil shifts from seasonal changes. Older cabins have unique plumbing configurations that need specialized knowledge to repair properly.
We carry the equipment and materials needed for mountain conditions on our trucks. This means we can usually complete your slab leak repair on the first visit instead of making multiple trips or leaving you with a temporary patch that fails when you need your plumbing most.
Slab leak repair costs in Tahoma typically range from $630 to $4,400, depending on the leak’s location and repair method needed. Simple repairs in accessible areas cost less, while leaks under kitchens or bathrooms require more work and cost more.
The final cost depends on several factors: how difficult the leak is to reach, whether we can use trenchless repair methods, and how much foundation restoration is needed afterward. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’ll pay.
Emergency repairs cost more than scheduled service, but catching a slab leak early prevents much higher costs later. Foundation damage from untreated slab leaks can cost tens of thousands to repair, making prompt professional repair the most cost-effective choice.
We use advanced non-invasive detection equipment including thermal imaging cameras and acoustic listening devices to locate slab leaks without breaking through your floors or foundation. These tools let us pinpoint the exact location of the leak through your concrete slab.
Thermal imaging shows temperature differences caused by hot water leaks, while acoustic equipment detects the sound of water escaping from pipes under pressure. We can also perform pressure drop tests to confirm whether there’s a leak in your system before we start looking for it.
This technology means we only open the slab where the actual leak is located, minimizing damage to your home and reducing repair costs. No more guesswork that results in multiple holes in your foundation or unnecessary destruction of your flooring.
Slab leaks in Tahoma homes are commonly caused by soil movement from freeze-thaw cycles, pipe corrosion from mineral-rich mountain water, and foundation settling due to elevation and terrain. Older cabins often have pipes that weren’t installed properly for mountain conditions.
The constant temperature changes in our mountain environment cause soil to expand and contract, putting stress on pipes under your foundation. Hard water with high mineral content corrodes pipes faster, especially copper lines common in older homes.
Poor installation during original construction also contributes to slab leaks. Pipes that were bent, kinked, or damaged during construction develop weak spots that eventually fail. Understanding these local factors helps us choose repair methods that prevent future problems.
Yes, we specialize in slab leak repairs for vacation rental properties and understand the unique challenges rental owners face. We can work around your booking schedule when possible and provide emergency service when guests are present or arriving soon.
Vacation rentals need reliable plumbing systems that won’t fail during peak season when your income depends on happy guests. We use repair methods and materials that provide long-term reliability, not quick fixes that fail when you can least afford problems.
We also provide the documentation you need for insurance claims and can coordinate with property managers if you’re not local. Our goal is to get your rental property back to full operation quickly with repairs that last through multiple seasons of guest use.
We offer several slab leak repair methods depending on your specific situation. Trenchless repair uses pipe lining or pipe bursting to fix leaks without major excavation, preserving your flooring and landscaping while providing a permanent solution.
Traditional repair involves accessing the leak by opening the slab, replacing the damaged pipe section, and restoring the concrete. This method works best for localized damage when the surrounding plumbing is in good condition.
Pipe rerouting bypasses the damaged section entirely by running new pipes through walls or ceilings, avoiding future slab leaks in that area. We recommend the best method based on your leak’s location, the condition of your existing plumbing, and your budget considerations.
We typically respond to slab leak emergencies in Tahoma within 1-2 hours, depending on weather conditions and time of day. Our emergency service covers the entire Lake Tahoe area 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
When you call our emergency line, you speak directly with someone who can help immediately. We ask about your specific problem, give you steps to minimize damage while we’re on our way, and provide an honest timeline for our arrival.
Our trucks are fully stocked with equipment and parts needed for most slab leak repairs, so we can often complete the work on our first visit. We don’t just patch the problem temporarily – we fix it properly so you don’t face the same emergency again next month.
