Do you think you have a water leak in your home? If you suspect a water leak, the time to take action is right now. Because the smallest of leaks can quickly become the biggest of problems, like extensive – and costly – damage to your property.
How to Detect a Water Leak at Home
The first sign of a water leak is something you can’t see, not until you open your water bill, that is.
A sudden or unexplained increase in your water bill is often the first sign of a water leak.
If you’ve noticed that your water bill has gone up for no reason, it’s a good indicator that you have a water leak. It could be a plumbing leak, irrigation leak, or even a leak in your pool or spa. Either way, when you see your water bill go up, pick up the phone and call a leak detection service specialist immediately.
Because the next signs of a water leak mean the damage to your property has already begun.
