Of all the rotten luck! My PVC drain system passed the rough-in pressure test. The slab was poured and I installed the above slab rough-in drain system. It failed pressures testing. After spending hours and days testing, I found exactly where the leak is.

It is a small, pin hole size leak in a 3 inch PVC soil pipe joint under the slab. I can get to it with a wire from inside the stack pipe but, it appears that I will have to break through the slab to get to the outside of the joint.

Is there any other way to fix the leak without breaking the slab?
