Signs You May Need A Leak Detection Company

If you have experience dealing with leaks, you know that they can be tricky to spot. Some leaks are small and develop slowly over time, leaving you wondering where in the maze of plumbing that leak is. On the other hand, some leaks are obvious, which can be equally as stressful. That’s why it’s important to keep a close eye on your faucets, showers, appliances, and more. The sooner you spot a leak and get it repaired, the better off things will be. After all, leaks left untreated for too long will cause even more damage in the future.

So whether you have experience dealing with leaks or not, it’s important to know what to look for if you suspect you have a leak. Here are a few signs you may need Glendale leak detection for your home or pool.
 

Signs of a Leak in Your Home

 

• Dripping faucets or showerheads. This is one of the clearest signs of a leak. If you notice your faucets or showerheads dripping even after you’ve turned them off, you’ve got a leak on your hands. In most cases, tightening the fixture should do the trick. If that doesn’t work, you can try replacing the fixture altogether. And if you still find water dripping, the leak might be occurring deeper within your plumbing. That’s when you need to call a professional for Glendale leak detection.
   
• Standing water. Check your home appliances (including your toilet and bathtub) for standing water. Even if you don’t see any water directly below the appliance, be sure to check behind it as well. Sometimes, these leaks can be fixed by tightening the pipes and hoses that connect your appliances. But if the water continues pooling, you might need the help of a professional.
   
• Growth of mold and mildew. Don’t be too concerned right away if you see mold or mildew in your bathroom. Mold and mildew prefer warm, humid environments, which is why you often see them growing in the bathroom. Try cleaning out your bathroom and making sure the room has proper ventilation first. If mold continues to grow even after that, it may be a sign that you have a leak in your plumbing system.
   
• Water damage on the floor. Check the floors around your shower and bathtub. Are the cauk seals damaged? Is your floor wet or warping? If so, this may be a sign of a leak.
   
• Stains on walls and ceilings. Water stains on walls and ceilings are a surefire indicator of a leak. These stains take a long time to develop, so this likely means your leak has been around for a while. If you see water stains on walls or ceilings, call a Glendale leak detection company right away.
   
• Low or inconsistent water pressure. There are a couple of reasons why you might have low or inconsistent water pressure. Sometimes this is simply the result of a clog in your shower or bathtub. But other times, it may have to do with a leak in your water heater or plumbing system. If unclogging the showerheads and faucets doesn’t work, you may have a leak on your hands.

 

Signs of a Leak in Your Pool

 

• Cracks in the pool. Cracks in your pool may not always be an immediate cause for concern. Some cracks, especially those that are small, are usually just cosmetic in nature. However, it’s a good idea to patch up cracks soon after spotting them. If left untreated, these cracks will grow in size and may lead to troublesome leaks.
   
• Low water levels. It is normal to lose some water due to evaporation. However, if your pool is losing more than 2 inches of water on a regular basis, you may have a leak on your hands. There are a couple of ways you can check to see if you have a water leak, including the bucket test and the dye test.
   
• Growth of algae. Algae grow when the chemical levels in your pool are unbalanced. Your chemical levels are more likely to fluctuate if you find yourself constantly adding water to the pool. Try adjusting the chemicals in your pool and giving the inside a good scrub first. If algae continue growing, you might be losing too much water.
   
• Cracks in the pool lights. Yes, even your pool lights can spring leaks! Pay close attention to your pool lights. Cracks in the lights may lead to leaks down the road.
   
• Wet spots in the yard. Wet, mushy spots in the backyard can be problematic if left alone for too long. Wet spots can be a sign that your water lines are leaking or that there is an issue with your pool plumbing. Either way, be sure to address this issue right away.
   
• Standing water. Check to make sure there is no standing water underneath your pool pump. This is a sure sign that you have a leak! Sometimes the repairs might be simple, but it’s best to call a professional to help fix the problem so you don’t accidentally make it worse.
