Slab Leak Detection & Repair

Your Trusted Whittier Slab Leak Experts

At Whittier Slab Leak Trace, we've been serving the community from our 12101 Hadley St location for years, providing essential slab leak detection and repair services across Whittier and surrounding areas like South El Monte, Montebello, and La Habra. As the owner and lead technician, Maria Rodriguez, I founded this business with a deep understanding of the unique challenges homeowners in Los Angeles County face. The Mediterranean climate, with its hot, dry summers and mild winters, can put stress on underground plumbing, leading to slab leaks that often go unnoticed until significant damage occurs. We know the older housing stock in areas like Uptown Whittier, East Whittier, and the Hadley Greenleaf Historic District often has aging pipes susceptible to these issues, and we're equipped to handle them with precision.

Our approach is different because we're not just a service provider; we're your neighbors. We understand the local soil conditions and the way they interact with your home's foundation, especially around landmarks like Whittier College and Rose Hills Memorial Park. When you suspect a slab leak, whether it's a sudden spike in your water bill or unexplained damp spots, you need an accurate diagnosis quickly. We pride ourselves on our meticulous trace and detection methods, ensuring we pinpoint the exact source of the leak beneath your concrete slab without unnecessary disruption to your home. Our expertise means we can often detect leaks that others miss, saving you time, money, and further damage.

What Whittier, CA Customers Say

“We noticed a sudden spike in our water bill and a warm spot on the living room floor near our fireplace. Whittier Slab Leak Trace came out quickly and, using their equipment, pinpointed the exact location of the leak under the slab. They were able to mark it for our plumber, which saved us a lot of guesswork and potential damage. Our water bill is back to normal now.”
MS Maria S.Whittier
“After a recent earthquake, we started hearing dripping sounds in the walls, but couldn't find any visible leaks. Whittier Slab Leak Trace responded fast. They used acoustic detection to trace the sound and confirmed a pinhole leak in a pipe under our kitchen island. Their precision meant our repair was much less invasive than it could have been. Highly recommend their expertise.”
DL David L.Friendly Hills
“Our house had a persistent musty smell, especially in the hallway, and we were worried about mold. Whittier Slab Leak Trace did a thorough inspection, including thermal imaging, and discovered a slow leak under the concrete near our bathroom. They provided clear documentation for our insurance claim and helped us understand the repair process. The smell is gone, and we have peace of mind.”
