Ways to Know You Need to Fix a Leak

"Wait, how will I even know I need leak detection?" That’s a good question: with leaking pipes hidden behind walls and sometimes down beneath stone flooring, it isn’t always immediately clear that you need to call a plumber. You must rely on smaller warning signs that will tell you it’s time for professional leak detection:

• Increase in water bills: Even a small leak that lets out a few drops per minute can make a noticeable rise in your water bills. If water costs make a sudden jump that you can’t explain, call for a professional plumber.
• Spots of discoloration on walls and ceilings: As water collects around a leaking pipe, it will start to destroy drywall. This will first become visible as brownish–red spots along the walls and ceilings.
• Drop in water pressure: Larger leaks can result in the water pressure decreasing around the house.
