Emergency Plumbing Contractor in Kilgore, TX 75662 - Dorman Mike Plumbing

In Kilgore, soil movement is a common cause of slab leaks. Our detailed plumbing inspection includes checking water pressure, listening for hidden leaks with specialized equipment, and assessing pipe conditions under and around your foundation. Catching a small leak or weak point early can prevent the extensive water damage and foundation issues that slab leaks are known for in our area.

Mineral deposits from our local water and age can cause valves to seize or corrode. More importantly, the ground movement common here can stress the pipes leading to valves, causing them to leak or fail. We replace broken shutoff valves with durable, high-quality components and ensure they are properly supported to withstand local soil conditions, restoring safe, reliable water control to your home.

During an inspection, we look for telltale signs like unexplained moisture in the crawlspace, cracks in interior walls or flooring, doors that no longer close properly, and the sound of running water when all fixtures are off. These can indicate that soil movement is stressing your pipes. Identifying these signs early allows us to recommend repairs or reinforcements to protect your plumbing system.
