Do I Need Professional Pipe Repair in My Gaithersburg Home?
The following are a few signs that you should contact us immediately for pipe repair. Remember, even the smallest problem is worth a Gaithersburg plumbing inspection in case there’s a worse situation behind the curtain.
- The loss of water pressure – Your water supply system is pressurized, which means that it needs to be kept at a certain pressure in order for your plumbing appliances and fixtures to work properly. If the water pressure in your faucets or shower heads is low, then there’s probably something wrong. Odds are, the drop in water pressure is caused by a leak in your pipes. In worst-case scenarios, it could even be caused by damage to your main water line. Not only can leaks grow worse if they aren’t repaired quickly, but they can also cause water damage within your home.
- An increase in your water bills– Always keep an eye out on your water bills. If you notice your water bills spike dramatically from one month to the next – and there hasn’t been a drastic change in the use of water within your household – then there’s a pretty good chance that there’s a leak in your pipes.
- Wet areas in your yard– If you notice any wet spots in your yard during a dry day, then there could be an underwater leak. If it doesn’t smell, it’s probably the water line – but if it does, then it could be your sewer line.
- Stains on the walls– A leak that occurs in pipes that are hidden behind your walls will eventually result in moisture building up that will eat through your drywall. You’ll be able to notice if this is happening if reddish to brownish stains begin to appear on your walls. These stains signify that not only do you have a leak, but it is damaging your home as well.
