Hot spots on the floor, the sound of water running when nothing is on, or a sudden jump in your water bill.
A slab leak occurs when a water or drain line beneath your home’s concrete foundation develops a crack or break, and it needs professional repair before it undermines your foundation or causes mold.
Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta detects and repairs slab leaks for homeowners across Gwinnett County and throughout the Atlanta metro area.

Signs of a Slab Leak
Warm spots on the floor, especially on tile or concrete, can indicate a hot water line leak under the slab.
Other signs include the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, cracks forming in walls or the foundation, water pooling along the edges of the slab, a sudden spike in your water bill, and mold or mildew on flooring near the foundation.
Slab leaks are caused by pipe corrosion, shifting soil beneath the foundation, friction between pipes and concrete, and poor original installation.
What We Do
We use electronic leak detection and acoustic equipment to locate the exact position of the leak beneath the slab without breaking through the concrete during the detection phase
Once located, we determine the best repair method based on the pipe’s condition, material, and accessibility.
Repair options include direct access through the slab to fix or replace the damaged section, rerouting the line above ground or through the walls, or epoxy lining in some cases.
Sean will walk you through the options and help you choose the approach that makes the most sense for your situation and budget.
Serving Gwinnett County and Metro Atlanta
Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta repairs slab leaks for homeowners across Gwinnett County, including Lilburn, Norcross, Lawrenceville, and Dacula.
We also serve DeKalb County areas like Dunwoody and Decatur, and Fulton County communities including Alpharetta and Roswell.
Slab-on-grade construction is common in Metro Atlanta homes, and copper supply lines embedded in or under the slab can develop leaks from soil movement and long-term corrosion.
