PLUMBING SERVICES
A water leak can lead to expensive utility bills and structural issues. At times, you may not even be able to find the source of the leak because it could be located somewhere difficult to reach—like under the concrete slab that acts as your home’s foundation. However, jackhammering your slab in random places to find the leak is not an option! Fortunately, our Peterborough plumbers are experienced in locating hard-to-find leaks and are fully equipped to do the job with minimal invasion of your home and property.
Sometimes, leaks can be obvious—a dripping faucet, for example, is easy to spot. Some leaks, however, can easily go undetected. Many pipes and components of your plumbing system are hidden away, tucked behind walls or under floors. Leaks in these areas can be hard to find. Some telltale signs you may have a leak on your property are:
Look for discoloured patches on surfaces, indicating water damage. These stains may suggest a hidden leak, potentially originating from pipes behind walls or beneath the flooring.
The presence of a musty or mildew smell could indicate hidden water damage. Investigate the source to identify and address any leaks before they lead to more extensive issues.
Unexplained spikes in your water bill may indicate a hidden leak. Monitoring water usage and investigating sudden increases can help identify plumbing problems.
If your pool water levels consistently drop, it might be due to an underground leak. Addressing this promptly can prevent further damage and maintain the proper functioning of your pool.
