Under slab water

[Sergio_mtl]

Hi need some information
A pipe that leads to my main broke last week, it was repaired, was under slab, but to find it we needed to break 2 places, one hole under slab keeps getting water, no clue where it comes from, definitely not from pipes, plumber says it can be perched water, im not so sure , I'm thinking it's either left over water from break as it was ongoing for a week, hole size was eraser pencil, or from foundation 20 feet away, no damage signs anywhere , and this water is smack in middle of the house, any ideas on what my next step should be.(I vacuum it out and keeps coming back)

Learn about the leak indicator on your water meter. Do not use water for a period, and see if the leak indicator indicates a leak.

https://www.forterie.ca/en/living-in-fort-erie/water-leaks.aspx is one of many pages that talks about a water meter leak indicator.

It could be leftover water from the break, groundwater (perched water), or a possible slab leak. Keep vacuuming and monitoring the water for a few days. If it persists, consider having the area checked for hidden leaks or foundation issues, and possibly consult a waterproofing specialist.
