Catching a Leaking Pipe Early is Crucial

Catching a leak in the early stages allows you to avoid any costly mistakes that can escalate exponentially. Water damage can wreak havoc on your property as it can quickly lead to mold growth, wood damage, and structural issues. In Portland, moisture and damp conditions are common. This creates the perfect condition for mold to thrive in and can quickly become detrimental to your health. Leaks will also grow your water bill without your knowledge.

How to Spot a Leaky Pipe

Keep an eye out for these common signs that your pipes may be leaking:

• Water Stains: Discoloration on walls, ceilings, or floors may indicate a hidden leak.
• Damp or Moldy Areas: Persistent dampness or mold growth suggests that water is seeping into your property.
• Unexplained High Water Bills: A sudden increase in your water bill could be due to an undetected leak.
• Dripping Sounds: Unexplained dripping or running water sounds may indicate a hidden leak.
• Reduced Water Pressure: A noticeable drop in water pressure can be a sign of a leak somewhere in the plumbing system.
