Slab-Leak Tips for Westland

Many Westland homes sit on slab foundations, and a hot-water line leak under the concrete can hide for months — warm spots on the floor, a spiking water bill or the sound of running water are the tells. If you suspect one, get it located precisely before anyone opens the slab. The aging water heaters common in this post-war housing are worth replacing proactively; a heater that fails on a slab home can do real damage. A quick meter test — everything off, watch the dial — confirms a hidden leak fast.
