What Causes A Leak?
Leaks seem to spring up overnight. Some are noticeable immediately while others only make their appearance once the water damage is serious enough. Once you see or suspect a leak, it is important to inspect these areas right away.
Leaks occur when pipes and plumbing parts become worn, damaged, cracked, and eroded. Our Massachusetts cold winters can also increase the likelihood of
burst pipes.
Common leak sources include:
- Sprinkler Systems
- Faucets
- Toilets
- Water Supply Lines
- Pools and Fountains
- Evaporative coolers/humidifiers
- Burst Pipes
A Leak Within The Sprinkler System
Your business can suffer from a leak within the sprinkler system. These systems are complex and interconnect, requiring the expertise of a professional local plumber.
Plumbing Appliance Leaks
Plumbing appliances such as water heaters, dish-washers, and clothes washers can spring a leak. If you notice stains under these appliances, puddles of water and moisture you may need a line replaced or parts tightened. Our professional can accurately diagnose the problem, so you don’t have to spend money on solutions that don’t work.
Indoor and Outdoor Faucets
Faucet parts get worn over time and may spring a leak when the washers and gaskets need to be repaired. Faucets and pipes can also burst when our cold winter months cause
frozen water within the pipes to expand, leading to cracks and leaks.
Toilets
Toilets are common culprits, and silent, wasting up to 100 gallons a week. These gallons quickly add up and become costly. There is a nifty trick you can use to see if your toilet tank is leaking. Lift the lid of the tank and drop some food coloring into the water.
Wait a couple of hours without using the toilet and then check to see any of the food coloring has made it into the toilet bowl. If you do see some food coloring in the bowl, you have a toilet leak on your hands. Give us a call and quickly resolve this problem.
Water Supply Lines, Fountains, and Pools
Water supply lines leaks are complex, requiring the skill of a trained professional to test and diagnose. Leaks can also come from your humidifiers, pools and water fountains. A crack in the foundation of your pool can cause the water to leak.
If you notice that your pool’s water level drops more than what can be accounted for from evaporation it is time to call in your
local Boston plumber. You want to ensure that these leaks are repaired correctly.
Can’t I DIY: Does it Really Take A Boston MA Plumbing Professional To Find These Leaks?
