What is a slab leak and are San Luis Obispo homes prone to them?+

A slab leak occurs in the water pipes running beneath your home's concrete foundation. San Luis Obispo homes are particularly prone to slab leaks due to the region's expansive clay soil, which shifts with seasonal moisture changes and puts stress on pipes. Homes built in the 1960s–1980s with copper pipes are especially susceptible to pinhole leaks.
