Signs You Have a Water Pipe Leak
There are several ways to know if you have a water leak in or around your home. By being aware of the warning signs, you can schedule a leak detection early, prevent moisture damage, and save unnecessary and expensive repair costs.
Signs of a water leak include:
- STAINS ON YOUR INTERIOR SURFACES: Dark or damp spots on your floors, walls, or ceilings are clear indications that you have a water leak.
- MOLD GROWTH: Fungi such as mold and mildew flourish in damp environments. If you have a water leak, mold spores are more likely to develop in the area. You can detect mold with a visual inspection of surfaces such as your walls. Mold also emits a prominent musty or muddy smell.
- A SUDDEN INCREASE IN YOUR WATER BILL: An unexplained rise in your water bill may indicate a water leak.
- LOW WATER PRESSURE: A burst pipe may result in a water pressure drop. A water pressure drop usually presents with other signs of a water leak, such as noisy pipes.
