Leak problems we help Downtown Delray Beach homeowners with

Slab leaks in older and renovated homes
Hidden leaks in walls and ceilings
Leaks found during remodels and reflooring

Older homes, older pipes

When an older home has been updated over the years, the kitchen and bathrooms may be new while the supply lines under the slab are original. Older lines have had more years of wear.

Renovating downtown? Test before the new floor goes down

A remodel can be a good time to deal with a slab leak. Once new tile or wood is installed, opening the floor can cost more. A pressure test of the hot and cold lines before flooring goes down can confirm the pipes are sound, or catch a leak while the floor is already exposed.

Townhomes and newer builds

Newer homes have had fewer years of pipe wear, but leaks can still start at fittings or where a line was damaged during construction. A sudden jump in the water bill in a newer home is still worth checking.

Local tip: If you are buying an older downtown home, ask whether the water lines have ever been rerouted or repiped, and check the last few water bills for unexplained spikes.
