    Garage floor leaking water
    Water is collecting in our garage along the floor tiles. Doesn't se to be drying off n appears to be coming in from underground?
    Am Horrified... does this mean we have to remove the tiles to place drainage in? Leaking waste water pipe?

    Hi Uto to

    How about a little background information here?

    How long have you been in the home and has this ever happened before?

    Do you have any water or heat pipes that go into the ground?

    Have you had lots of rain lately?

    Back to you...

    Water supply under slab? Could be a leak in piping.

    Let's check for a hidden leak, To check to see if you have a hidden leak first shut down everything in the house, no flush, no drinks of water, and if you are on a meter go out and check the little pointer in the gage. It should not move or creep. If it does you have a leak. If you're on a pump then check the pressure gage after the pump builds up to pressure and shuts off. The gage should not fall and the pump come back on. If so then you have a leak. Hope this helps and thank you for rating my reply, Tom
