About Our Slab Leak Detection in Georgetown
Georgetown has grown faster than almost any city in Texas over the past decade, and that growth has brought a wildly diverse housing stock. The older homes near the Courthouse Square and the Williamson County neighborhoods just off Austin Avenue were built with copper and galvanized steel pipes that are well past their expected lifespan. Georgetown's notoriously hard water accelerates corrosion in those older lines, and once a pinhole leak develops under a concrete slab, the damage compounds quietly until you notice warm spots on the floor or a water bill that doesn't make sense.
At Cold is on the Right, we use electronic leak detection equipment and pressure testing to trace the problem to its exact source without tearing up your home. In the newer master-planned communities like Wolf Ranch, Morningstar, and Teravista, we also see slab leaks caused by construction settling, improper pipe bedding, and thermal expansion in homes that haven't even hit their first decade. No matter what part of Georgetown you're in, our licensed plumbers arrive with the tools and local experience to diagnose the problem accurately and give you a clear, upfront repair plan.

Slab Leak Detection Services We Provide in Georgetown
Electronic Slab Leak Detection
We use electronic amplification and acoustic listening equipment to detect the precise location of pressurized water escaping beneath your slab. This non-invasive process saves Georgetown homeowners from unnecessary concrete demolition and lets us target our repair work exactly where it's needed.
Learn MorePressure Testing
Before any detection work begins, we pressure-test your plumbing lines to confirm a slab leak is present and determine which line is affected. This step is especially valuable in Georgetown's newer developments where multiple branch lines run under large slab footprints.
Learn MoreThermal Imaging Leak Detection
Infrared thermal imaging lets us identify temperature anomalies in your floor caused by a hot or cold water line leaking beneath the slab. In Georgetown's older homes where original pipe routes aren't always documented, thermal imaging helps us map what's actually there.
Learn MoreSlab Leak Repair
Once we've pinpointed the leak, we offer several repair methods depending on the pipe material, location, and severity of the damage. Options include spot repair with targeted jackhammering, pipe rerouting through walls or attic space, and full epoxy pipe lining — each with honest cost comparisons so you can make an informed decision.
Learn MoreWhole House Repiping
When Georgetown homes with aging galvanized or copper plumbing show multiple slab leaks over a short period, repiping the entire home is often the smarter long-term investment. We repipe with durable PEX tubing, rerouting lines out of the slab whenever possible to prevent future under-slab failures.
Learn MoreWater Line Rerouting
Instead of digging through the slab to repair a compromised line, we can reroute the affected pipe through your walls, attic, or crawl space entirely. This approach is particularly practical in Georgetown's older homes near the historic district where the original slab and pipe configuration makes direct repair difficult.
Learn MoreEmergency Slab Leak Response
An active slab leak can erode the soil beneath your foundation and cause structural damage in a matter of days. If you suspect a slab leak is actively worsening, our emergency plumbing team is available to respond quickly and get your water supply under control while we plan the repair.
Learn MorePost-Detection Foundation Assessment Coordination
A slab leak that has been running for some time can compromise your home's foundation, especially on the expansive clay soils common throughout Georgetown and northern Williamson County. We work with homeowners to document the leak location and damage so you have the information you need when coordinating with a foundation specialist.
Learn MoreWater Meter Monitoring and Leak Verification
Sometimes the first sign of a slab leak is a spike in your Georgetown Water Services bill with no obvious explanation. We can walk you through a simple meter test and, when needed, bring detection equipment to confirm whether the excess usage is coming from under your slab or elsewhere in the system.
Learn MoreEpoxy Pipe Lining
For pipes where direct access is limited or where full replacement isn't yet warranted, epoxy lining creates a new interior surface inside the existing pipe, sealing small leaks and corrosion points. This is a solid option for Georgetown homes with copper lines that have begun pitting but haven't fully failed.
Learn MoreNew Construction Slab Leak Inspection
New builds in Georgetown's master-planned communities aren't immune to under-slab issues. Settlement, improper bedding material, and construction traffic can stress new lines before a home is even occupied. We offer pre-occupancy inspections to catch problems before your warranty period closes.

We Know Georgetown Homes
Georgetown's housing stock is genuinely one of the most varied we work in. You've got historic homes near the Williamson County Courthouse with plumbing that predates modern codes, post-war neighborhoods with galvanized steel lines that should have been replaced a decade ago, and brand-new construction in Sun City and Wolf Ranch where the ink on the certificate of occupancy is barely dry. Georgetown's water is notoriously hard, and that calcium buildup accelerates corrosion in copper lines, making older pipes in established neighborhoods especially vulnerable to pinhole leaks under the slab.
The expansive clay soils throughout Williamson County add another layer of concern. When a slab leak goes undetected for weeks, the saturated soil beneath a foundation shifts, and in Georgetown's climate that can mean real structural consequences — not just a plumbing repair. We've worked in enough Georgetown neighborhoods, from the older streets off University Avenue to the sprawling layouts in Morningstar, to understand how home age, soil type, and water quality combine to create specific leak patterns. That local context shapes how we approach every detection call we take in this city.

High Fives from Austin Homeowners
Graysen and Andrew from Cold is on the Right came out just a couple hours after I called and took care of cutting out my kitchen faucet. They were professional, friendly, and clearly knowledgeable, explaining everything in a straightforward way without any upselling or confusion. It was refreshing to get honest answers and excellent service so quickly. I’ll definitely be using them again for future plumbing needs.
Services: Faucet repair
Price assessment: Reasonable price
We contacted Cold is on the Right today with an urgent plumbing need. Their very professional and organized crew arrived within 30 minutes and fixed our issue. We called five other plumbing companies before them and no one was able to help us. Cold is on the Right will now be the first plumbers we call.
Services: Drain cleaning
We called due to slow drainage and apparently main line backing up into master bathroom shower and sink. There is an automated line that takes your information and apparently works very well. Plumbers Billy and Jeremy showed up promptly after we were informed they were being dispatched this morning, they stayed and worked until the problem was solved and advised on possible future repairs that would need to be done. They were professional, smart, respectful of our home, and efficient in their actions. Let us know what things would cost and were honest in their assessment of what would be needed next and how (un) likely our homeowners insurance would be able to help. I appreciate the service and the fair treatment by these gentlemen. Thank you.
Santiago and Kyle were amazing during our total HVAC system replacement. Kind, informative, knowledgeable and careful to ensure a smooth install. They were efficient and got my AC working before my family arrived for spring break. Now enjoying the cool air with family. Great pricing and quick turn around from quote to finished job. Thank you! 10/10 would recommend them to anyone needing HVCA or plumbing work.
These guys are prompt and very polite, and explain your options well without trying to upsell. We thought we needed three things replaced, but they showed us that one of the three just needed an adjustment rather than a replacement. Wonderful service!
