Occasionally, plumbing problems aren’t so definitive. There are many telltale signs that you might need some work done. Luckily, Lutz Plumbing, Inc. is always ready to send out a plumber in Olathe, KS to help with all your plumbing needs.
A huge sign that you might be having a persistent plumbing leak is an abnormal cracking in your foundation. Homeowners may not be quick to recognize cracks in their foundation as a red flag because this can often be a sign of a house simply settling. However, if there are lots of large cracks, this may not be normal wear and tear to your home. It’s more likely that your home’s pipes that reach down to the foundation are leaking and pooling water in this area. Your foundation cracks when water seeps into preexisting cracks or the porous concrete.
If you feel like you’re not doing anything to warrant a spike in your water bill, but the price keeps creeping up each month it’s probably due to a plumbing problem. Before you assume that someone is taking too long of a shower or leaving the faucet on, consider doing some research. Try comparing water bills from the past few months and from this same period the previous year. Water bills should remain relatively constant, and if they’re too varied you should call a professional to check your plumbing for leaks.
Wet spots are a big sign that your plumbing might be leaking. Although this may seem obvious to some, many individuals might not recognize the wet spots around their home for what they are. If spots around your home are wet or discolored and there isn’t a clear spill or leak causing them, take note of this. It should be a red flag when these spots occur near pipelines, sinks, showers, or tubs. Wet spots are not something that you should put off calling a professional about. Not only are wet spots an eyesore, they can lead to mold. If there are wet spots popping up and an unpleasant smell in the air that you can’t seem to get rid of no matter how often you clean it is probably mold or mildew. These things can be potentially dangerous to your health and your household.
Obvious plumbing issues and covert plumbing issues both need to be addressed as soon as possible. If any of the signs listed above are evident in your home address them with our team before they become an emergency plumbing situation.
