We have a 2 story building in reconstruction (due to fire) with the slab and underground utilities as the starting scenario. We need to pass city code pressure test of waste system before framing. We are struggling resolving leaks in the 6 inch waste line system under the slab. The ABS piping system includes Ys, 90s, couplers, and straight pipe sections. What do you see as options for inner wall repairs at all the sections? Is there a lining process recommended here? Other method or process to consider? Is there a compound or solution we can add with or without water to seal and flush through the system without upsetting authorities or agencies here in CA?
-Tom
Tom, I would recommend sock lining: a felt sock pulled through an existing pipe and then inflated/expanded to fill the width of the old pipe. The sock cures in place and you have a new pipe inside of your old one. I would recommend contacting a reputable trenchless technologies company that offers sock lining services.

My house is built on a slab, there is a metal pipe that looks like a drain of some sort. Water is coming out of the hole and not the pipe, I think. I just noticed the ground is wet around that area, doesn’t seem to be a lot of water, but it’s steady. Is this something that is supposed to happen? Or is this a pipe leaking under the house? There is no visible sign of water in the house.
-Kim
Kim, barring any rainwater or some other unique draining process in your house, you should not see water steadily coming from the ground into your house. Since your house is on a slab it’s possible you have a ’slab leak’ (a pipe under or in the slab is leaking), some common signs of slab leaks are:
- Moist, wet, or damp spots/stains on flooring or carpeting
- Water coming through the foundation
- Sudden settling of the foundation
- Low water pressure
- A noticeable increase in your water bill
For more information about slab leaks, including causes, click here. I would recommend contacting a company that can check your plumbing system to see if this is a slab leak. If it is a slab leak, an epoxy lining company such as CuraFlo might be able to fix your problem without digging.
