When choosing a standby generator, one of the most common questions is, “What is the preferred generator wattage for a house?”
Leak Detection in Waco, TX
Notice a spike in your water bill? Or maybe you've spotted moisture around your home? Whatever the case, if you suspect you have a leak, quickly finding and fixing it to minimize damage is something that's often best left to the professionals. When in need of leak detection, Waco homeowners turn to ABC Home & Commercial Services to get the job done.
Our licensed plumbing specialists use a variety of technical tools to accurately pinpoint where a leak is located on your property. After we gather all the needed information from you about your situation, we will get started with our inspection. During this time, your specialist will start by checking fixtures, sinks, irrigation systems and pool systems to rule out leaks from these sources. Your ABC plumber may then check the water manifolds within your wall, isolating each water supply line to determine which one is leaking. We also have ground microphones and acoustic discs that allow us to hear through the concrete slab to help us determine if you have a slab leak.

Where might I have a water leak?
Some common places to look for leaks are:
- Toilets
- Water supply lines
- Faucets
- Showers and tubs
- Washing machines
- Dishwashers
If you have a leak in a water supply line or in a connection that is hidden out of sight, it can be extremely difficult to identify the source of the problem without the help of a professional who can use specialized tools to troubleshoot the issue. Fortunately, the pros at ABC will be able to quickly locate and repair nearly any water leak in your home.
What is a slab leak and why do they occur?
A slab leak typically occurs when copper pipes become corroded over time. This problem usually starts as a pinhole leak which becomes bigger and bigger. Another reason a slab leak might develop is that the water in your area is particularly hard, which can corrode your pipes at a faster rate. If left unattended, a slab leak could cause the soil around your home to become saturated with water, which in turn can result in water damage, mold growth and even pest problems.
You may have a slab leak if:
- you have seen a spike in your water bill
- water is pooling around the foundation of your home
- your flooring is damp
- your sheetrock or ceiling is cracking
- your water pressure is abnormally low
- your windows and doors aren’t closing properly
You could even see more than some combination of these signs. Because this is a serious plumbing problem, it’s important to get in touch with a professional promptly if you suspect you have this type of leak so you can avoid further damage.
