Why slab leak repair comes up in Killeen

Expansive clay moves slab foundations and stresses pipes underneath.

The typical Killeen home was built around 1999 (newer housing), when supply lines were usually PEX or CPVC supply and PVC or ABS drains. That material and its age shape both where leaks appear and whether a spot repair or a reroute makes more sense.
