Signs That You Might Have a Water Leak:
Water leaks aren’t always obvious to the untrained ear or eyes. Here’s what to watch or listen out for if you think you may have one:
- Unexpected spikes in your water bill is a very clear sign that you could have a leak or the kids might be leaving them on.
- Damp patches on the walls, or up on the ceiling, leaving brown spotted water marks, or through the floors making it dusky and damp.
- Mould or mildew growth is a sure sign and can be very dangerous for your health when breathed in for too long.
- Low water pressure throughout your home is annoying and needs to be addressed so you can go ahead and keep enjoying your showers.
- Running water or tripping sounds when taps are off, it could be behind walls, and we can find the problem right back to the source.
- Water pooling in your garden or driveway.
- Warm spots on your floor could potentially be a hot water leak.
- Seeing peeling paint or wallpaper lifting often shows damp spots underneath and needs to be repaired.
- Visible cracks in your walls, ceilings and cornices mean there could be a problem, but we will find it and solve it for you.
