Common Causes of Water Leaks
Your plumbing system experiences a lot of daily wear and tear, and with all that usage, failures may be inevitable. These issues often take the form of clogs and leaks within your pipes, which can lead to bigger, more expensive problems, such as complete repiping.
Common causes of leaks include:
- Aging pipes. Rust and corrosion can deteriorate your pipes, weakening their structural integrity. This weakening often leads to cracks and holes, which eventually cause water leaks.
- Poor installation. Improper installation of plumbing components can result in unsealed joints and connections. These flaws may not be immediately apparent but can lead to significant leaks.
- High water pressure. Excessively high water pressure puts undue stress on your pipes and joints, potentially causing them to burst. This pressure can exacerbate weak spots in plumbing, leading to leaks.
- Environmental factors. Ground movement can disrupt plumbing systems, leading to cracks.
- Tree root intrusion. Roots naturally seek out moisture and can invade and damage underground pipes. As roots grow, they can exert pressure on pipes, causing them to crack and leak.
- Chemical drain cleaners. Frequent use of harsh chemical drain cleaners can corrode your pipes, particularly older metal ones. This corrosion weakens pipes, increasing the risk of leaks. Opting for mechanical cleaning methods, like a plumbing snake, may help avoid damage.

Signs of Underground Water Leaks
The most common sign that you may have a hidden leak is an unexplained increase in your water bills. A sudden spike in your water costs without a change in your usage habits might indicate that water is being wasted elsewhere. This waste can also lead to mold and mildew growth, especially in the foundation. A persistent musty smell can suggest a water leak contributing to damp conditions. These odors are a consequence of mold or mildew growth.
A noticeable drop in water pressure can be another sign of a leak in the water supply line. Leaks reduce the amount of water reaching your faucets, causing lower pressure.
The Consequences of Water Leaks
Once you notice the signs of a hidden, it’s important that you call our team as soon as possible to avoid bigger problems, including:
- Structural damage. Underground water leaks can cause significant structural damage to a home, compromising the integrity of your foundation.
- Health risks. Mold and mildew can damage indoor air quality and cause serious respiratory issues and other health problems for vulnerable people, such as those with allergies or asthma.
- Decline in property value. Ongoing water damage can make your property less attractive to potential buyers. Visible signs of leaks, such as water stains and mold, can deter interested parties and affect negotiations.
- Electrical hazards. Water leaks near your electrical systems pose a serious risk of electrical shorts, fires, and injury.
- Aesthetic damage. Leaks can cause unsightly damage, such as warped flooring and ruined landscaping, which detract from your home’s curb appeal.
- Pest infestations. The moist environments created by leaks can attract pests like termites, ants, and rodents, leading to infestations. These pests can cause additional damage to a home, further exacerbating the issues caused by leaks.
