Signs Your Monterey County Home Has Sprung A Leak

Water leaks are tricky because they can be hard to detect and thus can go on for a long time before any apparent signs are visible. However, there are a few signs to look out for that will make it easier to know there is a problem. Knowledge is important, and we strive to provide our customers with the most reliable, up-to-date, information possible. Here are six signs that you may have a water leak.

Increased water bills: Generally, water bills remain fairly consistent month to month, usually only varying in small increments. Seeing an unusual spike in your water bill can be one of the first and most obvious signs that your home’s plumbing system has a leak.
Odd grass growth on your lawn: A patch of abnormally vibrant grass can be indicative of a sub-surface leak providing it extra water.
Bad smells and odor: Unexplained odors such as mildew can indicate an unseen leak.
Inspect the walls and ceilings: Wall/ceiling discoloration or bubbling paint can be a sign of water damage.
Wet spots on carpet/warped floor boards: Water damage in the middle of the floor can indicate a slightly more serious leak known as a “slab leak”, which is a leak that occurs underneath your home’s foundation.

Common Water Leak Locations in Monterey

Luckily, because most home plumbing systems are fairly similar in function, that makes it easy to predict the most common areas for possible leaks. Leaks rarely come from a crack in a piece of straight pipe. Most often, leaks occur in the points of least resistance created by fittings, valves, and other areas where water is contained or several components are attached together. With this in mind, the most common areas for leaks in the home are:

Faucets and sinks
Toilet Flappers
Shower head/hose
Supply lines
Hot water tanks

As you can see, most leaks occur at points where there are many connections and moving parts. This makes most leaks fairly easy to locate and identify. If you feel like any of these problem areas are leaking water, don’t hesitate to get it inspected by one of our professionals today!

While most water leaks might go unseen, it’s possible to look out for their symptoms. Every plumbing system is bound to face problems eventually, so it’s our goal to keep our customers informed and ready so they know when to call our hard-working professionals here at After Hour Plumbing & Drain.
