Pateco Plumbing can detect any leak you may have and repair it so your place of business or home is back to its full potential as soon as possible without breaking the bank.
How You Can Find Water Leaks
If you suspect you might have a leak, you can take the following actions before calling Pateco Plumbing to confirm the presence of a leak.
- Check your water meter - You can do this by turning off all the water in your home, including taps, faucets, washing machines and showers or baths, then monitor your water meter. If you notice your water meter changing within a few minutes, you may have a fast-moving leak. If there is no change, leave the water off for two hours and check again. If after two hours there is a change, you may have a slow-moving leak.
- Notice any mold or bad smells - If you notice any foul odors or mildew or mold deposits near a pipe or place with running water, that may be indicative of a leak.
- Keep an eye on your water bill - If you notice your water bill has increased but your habits have not changed, that may be a signifying a leak. If you can not find an above-ground leak, this growth in your bill may be caused by an underground pipe leaking, which can be remedied by the professionals at Pateco Plumbing.
- Run a test - If you believe your toilet basin is leaking, grab some food coloring and put it in the water in the basin. Wait about 10 minutes then check the toilet bowl. If there is any color in the water in your toilet bowl, that may show that you have a leak in your basin that allows water to flow into the bowl when unnecessary.
- Think about the age of your property - If your home or place of business is more than 25 years of age it may be time to check the integrity of your pipes. An old or outdated plumbing system can cause leaks and even further damage which will end up costing you more money in the long run.
