Slab leak specialists in Dubai
A slab leak — a pipe failure beneath the concrete floor of a villa or ground-floor apartment — is one of the harder plumbing faults to deal with because the water travels unpredictably through the screed before it surfaces. In Dubai, older villas with copper or galvanised supply lines buried in the slab are particularly susceptible to corrosion over time. AquaFix uses pressure isolation to locate the affected pipe section precisely before we open anything, keeping access cuts to a minimum and repair costs predictable.
Warm or damp spots on tiled or marble floors for no obvious reason.
DEWA water bill rising steadily with no change in usage.
Sound of running water under the floor when all taps and appliances are off.
Water pressure noticeably low at taps despite good supply at the meter.
We work methodically before any floor cutting to keep disruption as low as possible:
Fixed price quoted before any floor access is opened.
For villas with multiple leaks in aging under-slab pipework, reopening the same floor repeatedly is disruptive and expensive. In these cases we often recommend rerouting the affected run above the slab — through service ducts, wall chases or concealed conduit — so the old buried pipe is decommissioned and a new accessible run takes its place:
Assess the full extent of in-slab pipework and its condition
Plan the reroute path to minimise visible pipework
Install new pipe run and connect to existing supply
Pressure test and isolate the old buried run permanently
No floor tiles removed — the old pipe stays in place, sealed off.

"Tiles were warm in one corner of our villa in Mirdif and the DEWA bill had been climbing for two months. AquaFix isolated the slab leak to a single pipe section, opened a small area of screed and replaced it. Neat work and a fair price."
"Our Jumeirah villa had a suspected slab leak that two other plumbers couldn’t locate. AquaFix pressure tested each branch individually, found it within an hour and rerouted that section above slab. No tiles disturbed at all."
