Cemet slab home getting water spots on carpet
Good afternoon,
For past couple of weeks I have noticed areas on floor that were wet. Started in sonīs bedroom, and appear throughout the house, not soaking wet, but wet enough to leave footprint and place towel down to soak up water. No odor and appears no color. Have had 1 plumber came right before Christmas and he checked water meter and said nothing leaking, so ran a scope through pipes to check sewer, and found nothing. So the good news was, he could not find anything obvious, bad new was it was 450.00 to find that out. So I started monitoring all use of appliances to see if any relation to time of use. We have above ground pool in backyard and water level has not dropped. We have had a LOT of rain lately and someone mentioned that the water table could have risen, but I have no idea what that it. We have inspected the water heater in our attic as well as all areas in attic and walls to check for leaks and nothing. It did rain very hard this past Saturday and with in several hours a new wet spot appeared in master bedroom. Single level home, built in 1992, cement slab, only large tree close to house is bradford pear about 18 feet tall. We are located in Tidewater region of Virginia. The ground around our house is usually firm-hard, but seems extra soft, almost mushy lately. Huge mole or vole problem in our neighborhood. Trying to find any suggestions other than replacing all pipes or tearing up a bunch of holes in our home.
Any ideas, suggestions, questions for me to ask local plumbers so I can help make sure I am asking the right questions... thank you
