    Are you aware that water leaks in-home waste approximately 1 trillion gallons of water every year? There are many homeowners who take care of their plumbing system like their children, as they don’t want to spend their hard-earned money on plumbing. But many take their plumbing system for granted, and due to carelessness, the system leads to hazardous issues that need water leak inspection by Professionals.

    However, if you ignore plumbing system issues, it will lead to catastrophic results like cracks in the walls, excess water damage, and many more, which is unexpected. In short, if left unattended, water leaks can become a nightmare and take a hefty amount of money to repair.

    Causes of water damage

    • The plumbing system of the home has metal pipes or some parts that get corroded with time. It is true that these metals have anticorrosive treatments, but with time they lose their effect, and finally, the metal corrodes. When pipes get corroded, they develop cracks, pinholes, and many other issues that lead to a water leak.
    • The problem of water leaks is very common in older homes as, over time, the material used in the plumbing system gets old. In this case, they become susceptible to damage and leaks.
    • The issue of water leak is also very common in winter. That means water will expand when it freezes and due to which the pipes crack.

    So, in order to offer you a deeper understanding, let’s discuss some of the water leak results so that you can attend them as soon as possible: –

    1. The value of the property decreases

    Water damage or water leak in the property is a very serious issue that needs immediate attention; otherwise, it can cause severe damage to the home or the property. Here if you are planning to sell your home and there is a water leak, it will indeed drive down the value of the house. The reason is that it is true that you will fix the issues, but the lingering effects will remain there.

    This position can compromise your bargaining ability and affect the final selling price. So, take care of your plumbing system by inspecting it regularly so that you can prevent serious water leak issues from maintaining the value of the home.

    • Welcome fungal growth

    You know that mold and mildew can grow in a moist environment, and once they start breeding, they find their way inside the home. However, when these organisms start generating spores, it will cause indoor air pollution, due to which the health of the family members will start deteriorating in the form of sneezing, coughing, nasal congestion, etc.

    Moreover, along with the health of the family members, the growth of mold can also damage the home structure and lead to stains.

     In addition to that, due to moisture, the walls easily absorb moisture and start swelling. According to water leak inspection by Professionals,if the mold is there around the support beams, it can compromise the integrity of the home. So, if you want to prevent such problems, ensure that you take care of water leaks in your home, and if you find any leak call the professional as soon as possible to fix it.

    • Structural damage

    Apart from health hazards due to mold and mildew in your home, water leaks can also damage the overall structure of the property. If by chance the water leak is left unattended, repairing this issue is quite an expensive affair that can take your hefty hard-earned money.

    Some of the most common effects of excess water leaks in the home are staining, streaks along the walls, discoloration, etc. With time, if you don’t repair the water leak, the drywalls of your home will start absorbing water and swelling. In short, an unattended water leak will weaken the structural integrity of the house and will also lead to an outbreak.

    • Damage electrical system of the home

    When water comes in contact with different wiring, outlets, and electrical boxes of your home, it will make the system unsafe and compromised. However, if you don’t fix the water leak issue as soon as possible along with the plumbing system, you have to put your money into electrical inspection by calling a professional.

    So, inspect your home regularly for any type of leaks in order to avoid severe water damage situations. Apart from that, when both water and electricity mix, there is a risk of short circuits, and shortened wire can result in fire and, finally, severe damage.

    • Household water contamination

    Suppose the leak is from burst or broken pipes of your home from which you get drinking water, then that water is risky to drink. The reason is due to broken pipes, and various contamination can enter the pipes and make the water not suitable for drinking.

    Now, if you ask how contaminated water can enter through a small leak? The answer is when there is a sudden change or a drop in the water pressure and velocity in the pipe.

    • Water bill skyrockets

    If the water in your home continues to leak for some time, it will indeed offer you a high utility bill. The reason is due to a water leak, the water is getting wasted, and your energy bill is high because your air conditioner system has to work hard to cool the home due to high humidity. So, ensure to inspect your home regularly for various leaks.

    • The bottom line

    The above points are some of the issues you can face in unattended water leaks. So, if you want to prevent costly water leak repairs, inspecting your home regularly and taking care of your plumbing system is the best option. However, if you notice any small leaks, ensure to attend to them immediately by calling a water leak inspection by Professionals.

    But make sure you only call the best and reputed company for the work so that there will be no further damage and your dream home is safe.
