Why You Should Repair Plumbing Leaks Immediately

A plumbing repair is always a pain and may end up being expensive, but it’s crucial to make sure all plumbing leaks are repaired immediately. Some homeowners in the U.S. might think, “Oh, it’s just a little water spot, it’s no big deal.” But truthfully water damage you can see 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 wet spots or feel there’s a leak, call Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing right away to evaluate the situation and we can perform your plumbing repair to avoid any additional damage.

Fixture Damage

Although you may think of plumbing issues as being just in your drains and pipes, leaks and water quality issues may actually damage your fixtures, including faucets and showerheads. A rotted gasket could become lodged in the plumbing pipes or decrease your water pressure. If not resolved quickly and correctly, you might end up needing to invest in a new fixture, which may cost between $150 and $550 or more.

Flooring Damage

Just like the walls, a plumbing issue can also cause destruction to your floors. Gravity drives water to run downhill which can create leaks under your floors. Distorted and discolored floorboards and loose tiles are signs that you may be in need of plumbing repair. The earlier you call an expert plumber, the better possibility you have of not having to repair 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 could cause mold growth, so if you see any indications that you could 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 company to remove mold and sections of your wall or floors. Mold can cause significant health issues so don’t wait around with a moisture issue.

Cost of Wasting Water

In addition to the damage leaks can cause in your home, it can 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 higher than usual, be sure to call your the U.S. Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing in case you need a plumbing repair.

Don’t disregard leaks thinking they will disappear; they don’t fix themselves. Even something that seems like a small plumbing repair issue can turn into a major problem if not taken care of right away. Call Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing today for emergency plumbing repair or routine plumbing maintenance.
