Slab Leak Repair methods · Fort Walton Beach

PEX-A reroute over slab cut wherever possible to preserve original terrazzo, tile, and historic finishes. 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 finishes

Controlled slab cut + spot repair

Where reroute geometry doesn't work, controlled access cut through slab, repair, pressure-test, patch.

When reroute impossible
