Why You Should Repair Plumbing Leaks Immediately

A plumbing repair is never wanted and can end up being expensive, but it’s critical to make sure all plumbing leaks are repaired immediately. Some homeowners in the U.S. might think, “Oh, it’s just a minor water spot, it’s nothing.” But honestly water damage that you notice is normally just the tip of the iceberg.

Wall Damage

The lines for your plumbing system are installed behind your walls so any leaks, or worse, a total pipe burst, can moisten the drywall or destroy it altogether. If you see any moist spots or feel there’s a leak, call Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing as soon as possible to analyze the situation and we can conduct your plumbing repair to avoid any further damage.

Fixture Damage

Although you may consider plumbing issues as being only in your drains and pipes, leaks and water quality problems may actually ruin your fixtures, including faucets and showerheads. A deteriorated gasket could become stuck in the plumbing pipes or decrease your water pressure. If not taken care of quickly and correctly, you might end up needing to replace your fixture, which may cost between $100 and $550 or more.

Flooring Damage

Similar to the walls, a plumbing complication can also cause harm to your floors. Gravity drives water to flow downhill which can create leaks under your floors. Distorted and discolored floorboards and unsecured tiles are signs that you may need a plumbing repair. The earlier you call an expert plumber, the better likelihood you have of not having to replace all the flooring, so call Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing as soon as you see any evidence of damage.

Mold Issues

Under particular circumstances, moisture in the walls and floors can lead to mold growth, so if you see any marks that you might need plumbing repair, call immediately because you may need someone else besides a plumbing expert – you may also require the service of a mold remediation business to remove mold and segments of your wall or floors. Mold can cause severe health issues so don’t put off dealing with a moisture issue.

Cost of Wasting Water

In addition to the destruction leaks can cause in your home, it will also end up costing you more on your water bill. Leaks are just what they sound like – leaking water – so they up your water usage and may rack up a large bill. If your water bill is costing more than usual, be sure to call your the U.S. Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing in case you require a plumbing repair.
