Leaks and Pipes

Leaks and pipe issues often go hand in hand. Whether you’re finding water where it doesn’t belong or there’s something going on with your pipes, our plumbers will figure out what’s going on, find a solution, and make the repairs or replacements needed to get your plumbing system up and running again.

Common Problems With Leaks and Pipes

When homeowners think of leaks, they generally think of something like a leaky faucet or a leak obviously coming from another plumbing fixture such as a sink, a toilet or a washing machine. Another common area to find a visible leak is beneath many of these plumbing fixtures where pipes and other mechanisms can become loose, corroded, clogged, etc.

Other than leaks that are visible and easily spotted by the untrained eye, your home or commercial space can also have water leak from internal plumbing that may be behind a wall, under a floor or in the ground. Homeowners may notice signs of internal water leakage or pipe damage through noticeable water stains, the sound of running water with no obvious source, musty or damp smells, and even utility bills that are higher than normal.

Frequently Asked Hot Water Tank Questions

Common signs of internal water leakage or water leaking from your home’s piping systems include hearing the sound of running water but not being able to determine the source, higher than normal utility bills, visible water stains and musty smells caused by moisture.

Common causes of water leaks in the home include corroded pipes, pipe damage like damaged pipe joints, broken seals, loose water connectors, clogged drain or sewer lines, excessive or uneven water pressure, rapid and/or extreme temperature changes, or tree roots growing into your pipes and plumbing systems. To determine what is causing water leaks in your home, give us a call and have a professional plumber assess the situation today.

Thick-Walled Schedule 40 PVC piping is what is used today. It is more resistant to pressure and breakage than pervious types of piping that was commonly used in homes or commercial buildings.

If you find a leaky pipe and you need to stop the water before a plumber can get to your home, you can use a water pipe epoxy, pipe raps, plumbing repair tape, pipe clamps, rubber pipe connectors or repair sleeves. Some of these tools take more experience than others, so make sure you research your options before you get started. Remember to always patch a leak as soon as you can, and to call a certified plumber to permanently and professionally stop the leak.
