The Danger of Hidden Water Leaks

Leaks are among the most common plumbing problems and can range from very tiny leaks to a burst pipe that can quickly flood your home. While they may seem minor, small plumbing leaks often go undetected. The leak can be silently causing damage behind the walls or under the floors. Detecting and repairing plumbing leaks quickly is the best way to avoid bigger headaches and more expensive repairs.

Common signs you have a leaking pipe include:

  • Low water pressure
  • Higher utility bills
  • Musty odors
  • Visible water damage
  • The sound of running water
  • Discoloration on the walls or ceiling
  • Visible mildew or mold growth

Finding and fixing plumbing leaks is imperative. A hidden plumbing leak can cause water damage, mold growth, electrical issues, and damage to the structural integrity of your home. For these reasons, you should call a professional for accurate leak detection in Las Vegas at the first sign of a potential plumbing leak or when you notice any of the signs of a hidden leak.

The Benefits of Accurate Leak Detection

If you have a plumbing leak, you want to locate it and repair it as soon as possible to prevent water damage. However, there are many other reasons why it's important to get the leak detected.

  • Water Conservation: Plumbing leaks are one of the leading causes of water waste, with as much as millions of gallons of water wasted. Therefore, it's important for the environment that you preserve water by getting the leak fixed promptly.
  • Reduce Mold & Mildew Exposure: Additionally, the leak can lead to mold and mildew growth, both of which pose serious threats to your health. Symptoms similar to allergies such as sneezing and runny nose as well as wheezing, trouble breathing, and headaches can all be attributed to mold exposure.
  • Save Money: Leak detection is also important for financial reasons--your water bills will significantly decrease when the leak is repaired and water is conserved.

Leak Detection FAQ

 

Who Do I Call to Find a Water Leak?

When you are experiencing a water leak, you should contact a licensed plumber. By calling a licensed plumbing company, you will have a team with the tools necessary to find and fix any lingering water leaks. A licensed plumber can get this done quick, efficiently, and can even provide guidance on how to prevent water leaks.

How to Tell if You Have a Water Leak Underground?

Detecting an underground water leak can be challenging, but there are several signs you can look out for:

  • Noticeable Drop in Water Pressure: If you experience a sudden decrease in water pressure when using plumbing appliances, it may indicate an underground leak.
  • Hissing or Splashing Noises: Pay attention to any hissing or splashing sounds coming from the ground, as these can be indications of water escaping from underground pipes.
  • Wet Soil or Puddles: If you notice areas of your yard that are constantly wet, even when it hasn't rained, or if you see unexplained puddles forming, it could be a sign of an underground water leak.
  • Sinkholes or Depressions: Keep an eye out for sinkholes or depressions forming in your yard. These can occur when water leaking from underground pipes causes the soil to erode and collapse.
  • Unusually Green or Thriving Grass: If certain areas of your lawn appear greener or more lush than others, it could be due to an underground water leak providing excess moisture to the grass.

It's important to note that these signs are not definitive proof of an underground water leak, but they can provide useful clues. If you suspect a leak, it's recommended to consult a professional plumber who can conduct a thorough investigation and perform necessary repairs.

Why Leave Leak Detection to a Professional Plumber?

Locating the source of plumbing leaks can be challenging for a couple of reasons. The plumbing system is mostly hidden behind your walls, under the flooring, or in the ceiling. Since you can’t look at the pipes, it can be difficult to notice when, and exactly where, a small leak is happening. In addition, water may not be seen in the place where the pipe is leaking. Often, water travels along the pipe until it comes out somewhere else. This can make finding a leak difficult on your own.

At 702 PlumbAIR, we have the best quality plumbing technicians, in terms of training, experience, and commitment to quality work. We use proven methods and the best tools and equipment for accurate leak detection in Las Vegas. No matter how hidden or challenging the leak, you can count on us to find it and get it fixed.

What are Common Causes of Plumbing Leaks?

Do you know how old your home's pipes are? Older pipes are more susceptible to leaks because their materials weaken over time. However, there are other causes of leaks.

These include:

  • Excessive water pressure running through your pipes
  • Corrosion
  • Tree roots penetrating your pipes
  • Broken seams or joints due to improper pipe installation
  • Substandard pipe materials that are more likely to deteriorate

Is a Water Leak Considered an Emergency?

Yes, a water leak can be considered an emergency depending on the severity and location of the leak. Here are some situations where a water leak should be treated as an emergency:

  • Flooding: If water is rapidly accumulating and flooding your home or a significant area, it's an emergency. This can cause immediate damage to your property and pose a safety risk.
  • Electrical Hazard: If the leak is near electrical outlets, appliances, or wiring, it's an emergency. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination and can lead to electric shocks or fires.
  • Burst Pipes: If a pipe has burst, it can cause significant damage to your property and belongings. It can also lead to loss of water pressure or a complete loss of water supply.
  • Ceiling Leaks: If water is leaking from the ceiling, it could indicate a structural issue or a problem with the plumbing. This can cause further damage and potential safety hazards.
  • Sewage Leak: Any leak involving sewage is an emergency. Sewage leaks can be hazardous to health due to the presence of bacteria and pathogens.
  • Freezing Weather: In colder climates, a frozen or burst pipe can cause serious damage. It's important to address this quickly to prevent further issues.

In these cases, it's crucial to take immediate action to minimize damage, ensure safety, and prevent further complications. This might involve shutting off the water supply, containing the leak, and seeking professional help as soon as possible. Remember, if you're unsure about the severity of the situation, it's better to err on the side of caution and treat it as an emergency.
