Exposed plumbing pipes running along an unfinished wall

Free to homeowners in Kansas City — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

The short answer

In Kansas City, 63% of housing is detached. A slab leak is located by listening and correlation before any floor is opened, and a meter that moves with the house shut off proves a leak exists but not where it is.

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25024, five-year estimates. A margin of error is published alongside every estimate.

A slab leak is found by listening, not by digging first. 63% of Kansas City homes are detached houses on their own ground.

What this site is

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.

It is found by listening first

Correlation and acoustic listening locate a leak before anything is opened. Opening the floor to find it, rather than to fix it, is the expensive order to do this in.

Is it a slab leak

A warm patch on the floor, a sound of running water with every tap closed, and a bill that climbs with nothing damp indoors are the three that point under the slab. Damp on a wall usually points somewhere else.

Checking a plumber in Missouri

Missouri has no state plumbing board. Section 341.010 of the Revised Statutes requires a certificate for plumbers working in cities or towns of fifteen thousand or more inhabitants, and the chapter elsewhere recognizes licenses issued by any county or city operating under plumbing rules, so the office that issued one is a local office. Start here. Ask the contractor which municipality licenses them and confirm it with that office before work begins.
