Default Slab leak in the desert

I would think it's easier to just fix the break. You can rent a
concrete saw and saw out a hunk of concrete and bust it with a sledge
after you saw it.


Not if the tubing is corroding. Next week you have another leak two feet
away. Fix that and you get another leak four feet away. Run new lines and
be done with it.


Good point but the leak I had (luckily under the garage floor)
was due to a pipe kinked during construction. I had a service
come and locate the leak.

Slab-on-grade construction should be banned!
