About UnderSlab

A small site with a narrow subject, and one thing on it we deliberately refuse to state.

In one paragraph

A slab leak is found with a meter and a quiet house, and the first thing said here is how to do that yourself for nothing. UnderSlab belongs to NXTA Flow; it locates nothing, repairs nothing, and its household leak material is EPA’s.

Source: US EPA WaterSense, Fix a Leak Week.

UnderSlab is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands, and work that opens a structural slab is normally permitted — ask to see the permit. We carry out no work and no leak detection, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

What UnderSlab does

UnderSlab is a referral service operated by NXTA Flow. We connect homeowners with independent contractors for slab leak detection and repair.

It is fifteen pages on purpose. The coverage page explains why there are no town pages here.

The material behind it

Nearly every figure on this site comes from US EPA WaterSense, Fix a Leak Week — the two-hour meter test, the winter usage threshold, and the scale of what household leaks waste. Each page that uses one names it.

What it will not tell you

Not every slab is built the same way and the differences matter to anyone cutting one. We found no source we were willing to cite on how common each kind is, so no page here states it.

What the pages do instead is tell you the question has an answer, that it is answerable before work starts, and who is qualified to give it. An instruction we can stand behind, in place of a statistic we cannot. The same rule is why there are no prices anywhere on this site.

If the meter moved with everything off, you have a leak.That is the finding worth leading with, because it saves an hour of diagnosis. We connect you with a contractor who covers your area, and your ZIP code is what decides who that is. You are never charged. It does not have to be a slab leak either — every kind of plumbing request is routed.
