Putting Today's Disasters into the Past
Low water pressure, constant dripping, slippery floors, ceiling stains, and optimal conditions for mold growth—water leaks can be a terrible headache, which makes early leak detection essential for protecting your home from damage.
What Causes a Leak?
Water leaks can occur with regular use, as the fittings of your pipes and faucets wear out and need replacement. Of course, more dramatic leaks can also occur after disastrous storms damage your roof or plumbing.
Leak Detection
Most of the time, leak detection is a very simple process. There are several signs you can look for to identify leaks yourself.
- A musty smell
- Dripping faucets
- A toilet that is always running
- An unexpectedly high utility bill (indicating more water use)
- Moist areas or mold growth
- Water stains appearing on the ceiling or walls
- Warped floorboards
While repairing a dripping faucet or running toilet can be a relatively quick process of calling a plumber for help with repairs, leaks which are less visible can be more difficult to fix. Leaks that are out of sight, such as leaks between the walls of your home, can often cause damage before you realize they are there.
