How much does slab leak repair cost in Austin?

Spot repairs typically run $1,500–$3,500. Reroutes range from $2,500–$5,000. Full repipes cost more but solve systemic issues. We give you a specific written price after detection.

How do you find a slab leak without tearing up my floor?

We use electronic acoustic sensors and thermal imaging to detect the leak through the slab. This pinpoints the location to within a few inches, so only a small access point is needed.

Should I repair or reroute a slab leak?

If it's an isolated leak in an otherwise sound pipe, spot repair is cost-effective. If you've had multiple slab leaks or the pipe shows widespread corrosion, a reroute or repipe prevents future failures.

Does homeowners insurance cover slab leak repair?

Most policies cover sudden pipe failures but not gradual corrosion. The resulting water damage (flooring, drywall) is more likely covered than the plumbing repair itself. We provide documentation for your claim.

Had three other plumbers tell me I needed to dig up my yard for a sewer line issue. Ironclad did a camera inspection and fixed it with trenchless repair. Saved me thousands.

Called them for a leak under our kitchen sink. They showed up same day, found the problem fast, and fixed it in under an hour. Price was exactly what they quoted.

Our water heater died on a Sunday night. They answered the phone and had someone out Monday first thing. These guys are the real deal.

Drain Cleaning FAQ

How much does drain cleaning cost in Austin?

Most drain cleaning runs between $175 and $350, depending on the drain, the access point, and how stubborn the clog is. You get the exact price before any work starts, and you approve it first.

Do you offer same-day drain cleaning?

In most cases, yes. Same-day availability depends on demand, but we prioritize getting to you fast. For an active backup, call and we will find the soonest window.

Is this a drain clog or a main line problem?

One slow drain is usually a local clog. Multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, or water backing into tubs and showers point to a main line issue. Your plumber will confirm which.

What if my drain keeps clogging?

Recurring clogs usually mean something deeper. We check for buildup, roots, pipe damage, or a sewer line issue, and recommend a camera inspection when it is warranted.

Do you clean main sewer lines?

Yes. We handle main line clogs and can run a camera inspection when a deeper issue may be the cause, so you know what is going on before you spend on repairs.

What can I try before calling?

For one minor clog, try a plunger or clear visible debris near the opening. Skip the harsh chemical drain cleaners, they can damage pipes. If it keeps returning, hits multiple drains, or causes a backup, call a plumber.
