Tis' The Season For Water & Plumbing Leaks; Here's How You Find Them

Water leaks and broken plumbing pipes seem to happen more this time of year. With so much going on, it's the last thing you want to deal with. All the friends and family we have over, additional cooking, and laundry, but more stress on our plumbing. Combine this with corroded pipes and it's a recipe for disaster!

When water leaks are concerned, it doesn't take much to disrupt and cause chaos in the family home. Especially when you consider how many water pipes are throughout the home, sinks, toilets, bathtubs, refrigerator, hot water heater, under your home, and out in the yard.

Water pipes don't last forever. Over time the chemicals in the water can cause pipes to rust and create pinhole leaks. Behind every water leak, no matter how small, lurks other issues such as mold and mildew, without anyone realizing and the consequences can be devastating.

Unfortunately, most water leaks happen behind the scenes. Where you don't even notice until the leak causes some other type of damage, such as a musty odor, stains on the walls or ceilings, mold, mildew, structural damage, peeling paint, and even health issues.
