6 Signs You Could Have a Plumbing Leak

Finding and fixing leaks are the most popular calls we receive for plumbing services. Finding a leak immediately can help you avoid expensive water damage. Some leaks might be harder to find than others, but there are a couple telltale signs that you need to get in touch with a plumber in Tempe. Here are the top six:

  4. Floors or walls seem wet or soft.
  5. You see water stains on the ceiling or walls.
  6. There’s wet soil or erosion near your house’s foundation.

How to Figure Out if You Have a Leak

If you think you have a leak but can’t see the evidence, check your water meter:

  • Ensure no water is being used inside or outside your home.
  • Look at the leak indicator on your water meter. The indicator is typically a triangular dial or tiny silver disc. If the dial is spinning, you may have a leak.

We can find the source of the leak and get it repaired before you spend more money or by chance damage your home.
