What Causes Foundation Leaks?

A foundation leak or slab leak is a leak that happens under the home’s foundation. Unlike other leaks, it often goes unseen for months or years. The most common causes of foundation leaks are:

  • Hydrostatic Pressure
    This occurs when water accumulates in the soil around the foundation. The pressure can force water through cracks.
  • Poor Drainage
    Ineffective drainage systems or clogged gutters can lead to water pooling around the foundation.
  • Cracks in Foundation
    Foundation cracks aren’t uncommon, but water can seep in if they worsen and go unrepaired.
  • Plumbing Leaks
    Leaks from underground plumbing can contribute to excess water around the foundation. Homes built with galvanized or copper pipes are in danger of plumbing leaks and water damage.
  • Improperly Sealed Basements
    Basements that are not properly waterproofed are susceptible to water seepage.

Signs of a Slab Leak

Slab leaks are difficult to detect, but here are a few telltale signs that signal a problem. If you notice any of these, turn to our expert plumbers as soon as possible.

  • Unexpected High Water Bills: A sudden, unexplained increase in your water bill could point to an undetected leak.
  • Sounds of Running Water: Hearing water running when all taps are off could indicate a leak under your foundation.
  • Moisture or Mildew Under Cabinets: Moisture or mildew beneath carpets typically points to water seeping from the foundation.
  • Cracks in Walls or Flooring: Unexplained cracks in walls or floors may be caused by a slab leak shifting your home's foundation.
  • Hot Spots on Floors: If a hot water line leaks, it can create warm spots on the floor.
  • Low Water Pressure: A decrease in water pressure without an apparent reason can be a symptom of a leak.
  • Pools of Water Around the Foundation: Water accumulating near the foundation can indicate a leak underneath.

Every minute a slab leak goes unrepaired, the more expensive it is to fix. Call Woodfin - Your Home Team today if you suspect you have a foundation leak at (804) 552-6295. We provide on-time service in Richmond, VA.
