Slab leaks, handled locally

Most homes around Cohutta sit on a concrete slab over dense red clay. When a water line under that slab fails, the leak is hidden: a warm spot on the floor usually means a worn hot water line under the slab, and a meter that keeps moving with everything off calls for slab leak detection before any concrete is opened. If water is coming up through the floor, it's an emergency slab leak: shut the main off first, then call.

Cohutta Slab Leak Pros is a local call line for slab leak work in Cohutta, Varnell, Red Clay, Prater Mill, Beaverdale and the rest of north Whitfield County. One call connects you with a plumber who can repair the pipe through a small opening or reroute the line above the slab, instead of working through a list of companies that mainly clear drains.

What we help with

Once the leak is found, the fix is either a small opening in the slab to repair the pipe at that spot, a reroute or repipe that runs new lines above the floor and leaves the slab alone, or, where the layout allows, trenchless repair with minimal concrete removal. A leak that has been soaking the clay for a long time can affect the slab itself, which is why stopping a leak under the foundation early matters. Gas piping under a slab is handled too, after the utility has made the house safe: see gas line leak under slab.

Where we cover

Calls come from Cohutta itself and the communities around it, including Parrett Crossing, Ruralvale, Plainview and the Mount Vernon community in Whitfield County.
