The costs of ignoring a leak

Water leaks are often out of sight, but the damage they cause is anything but invisible. When leaks go undetected, they can cause:

• Structural damage to wood framing, drywall, and concrete foundations
• Mold and mildew growth, posing health risks
• Higher utility bills
• Flooding, which can quickly damage flooring, furniture, and belongings
• Foundation issues, from cracks to shifting and settling

Common signs of plumbing leaks

Not sure if you're dealing with a hidden leak? Here are some common warning signs to look out for:

• A sudden or unexplained increase in your water bill
• Damp or warped flooring without an obvious source
• Musty or moldy odors inside your home or business
• The sound of running water when all fixtures are off
• Water stains on ceilings, baseboards, or drywall
• Cracks in the foundation or unexplained settling

If you notice any of these issues, it's time to schedule professional leak detection before the problem gets worse. Call (530) 303-0285 any time of day to request an appointment. Where the signs point under the foundation, see our slab leak detection page.
