Signs You Have a Leak
To make sure you don’t overlook a leak, here are some common warning signs of water leaks in homes. 1. INCREASE IN YOUR WATER BILL Have your water bills suddenly spiked? If so, you could have a leak somewhere in your home. To make sure the spike isn’t due to a seasonal change, compare your current water bills to those from the same month last year. 2. WATER METER CONTINUOUSLY TICKING Is your water meter continuously running even though you’re not using water in or outside of your home? This is another red flag that you could have a leak. 3. MOLD & MILDEW Leaks often cause damp spots on floors, walls, and/or ceilings. These damp spots can give rise to mold and the musty odors that come with it. If you find that you have a musty smell around the home, regardless of how often you clean your home, you may have a leaking pipe. 4. FOUNDATION CRACKS As your home settles over time, cracks can start to develop in various places. If, however, you begin to notice foundation cracks suddenly developing, you could have a leak. The water that continually seeps out of your pipes can weaken a home’s structural components, which can cause cracks in the foundation, walls, and other areas. 5. WET SPOTS Visually inspect the area near sinks, tubs, and toilets. Do you see wet spots? Or is the floor around these plumbing features discolored? If so, take it as a warning sign that you could have a leaking pipe. NOTICE WARNING SIGNS OF LEAKS? CONTACT PLUMBING SYSTEMS, INC.
