What makes Fort Myers slab leak distinct
Fort Myers was founded around the historic 1850 fort and incorporated 1886; Thomas Edison + Henry Ford built winter estates here (Edison & Ford Winter Estates, 1885–1916).

Four repair pathways calibrated for Fort Myers
PEX-A reroute over slab cut wherever possible to preserve original terrazzo, tile, and historic finishes. Fort Myers's 1880s edison-era + 1920s mediterranean + 1950s ranch + 2000s+ luxury rebuild housing stock calls for different repair pathways — we default to the least-invasive option that solves the problem long-term.
PEX-A reroute through walls + ceilings
Bypass failed under-slab run with new PEX-A supply through wall cavities, attic chases, or ceiling joists — preserves finishes.
Default — preserves finishesControlled slab cut + spot repair
Where reroute geometry doesn't work, controlled access cut through slab, repair, pressure-test, patch.
When reroute impossibleFull PEX-A repipe
