Good pre-blizzard (albeit a minor one compared to the northern areas) morning folks!
We are looking at between 6 and 12 inches of snow on the way and sub zero temps here for a while. The panic has already begun

Bike Week! Used to love it, now I've just got to where I don't like crowds anymore. If I were to be able to work it out and be around the area when you guys arrive, I'd gladly buy you a beverage or two of your choice!

Plumber says leak is directly below water heater in slab so hopefully not overly involved to repair. Good news is my neighbor across the street owns a water leak detection company so I hope I get the good neighbor discount!
Maybe if I had said "indoor pool" it would have been a better joke...
I think the good news is there is no water damage to any wall, no water under sinks or anyplace where there is water flow. Never been in this situation so I'm not sure if in the slab or in the wall is less costly to repair. Gonna find out.
I would think a wall repair would be less expensive than anything that would be done in a slab, but I'm not a real repair guy.
The logic of putting water pipes under a concrete slab eludes me.

Under the slab is jack-hammer time. Big mess and expensive if you can't do it yourself.
Drain lines under a slab are OK, but supply lines ...not so much.
