These two terms get used interchangeably, but they describe different problems with different investigation approaches.

The distinction

The core distinction

A general term for a leak anywhere in a home's supply or drain piping, including exposed sections that are easy to see and reach.

A specific type of pipe leak located in a line running below or through the concrete foundation — not directly accessible.

An exposed pipe leak is often quick to confirm visually. A slab leak requires narrowing down a location that can't be seen directly.
