How do you know if you have an emergency slab leak?

You know you have a slab leak when water starts seeping through the cracks of your floors or walls. If you feel like you are possibly living in a sinking submarine in your living room, it’s time to contact your Sand Springs plumber. Quite simply explained, a slab leak occurs when there’s a break or leak in the pipes beneath the concrete slab foundation of your house. If you have carpet, you will notice a wet spot that won’t dry even after attempting to soak it up. At first, homeowners may think that they spilled something and dry it up only to come back later and find it is still wet. This wet spot is not something you should ignore!
