WARNING SIGNS
Your home’s plumbing is one of its most important functions. Without your plumbing functioning properly, perhaps due to a burst pipe, everyone in your household’s day-to-day life could be dramatically affected. An obvious sign of a burst pipe is a huge water leak, but there are some other, more subtle signs that your home’s plumbing may have a burst pipe:
Discolored water coming out of your home’s spigots and faucets can be a sign of a burst pipe. If you have a burst pipe it will rust over time and get dirt in the line as well, which will result in discolored water throughout your plumbing system.
As we all know, mold often develops in a home thanks to unwanted moisture. Therefore, a mold infestation in your home may be a sign of a burst pipe dispersing moisture where it shouldn’t be.
A strong odor disseminating from your home’s plumbing system can be a sign of a burst pipe. In the event your home plumbing is smelly throughout your home, you should contact the professionals at Hero Home Services.
If your consumption habits are unchanged and your water bill is continually rising, it may be due to your plumbing system overworking itself to make up for a burst pipe. Hero Home Services technicians have the capability and expertise to locate the inefficiency, whether it’s a burst pipe or not, and repair it so that your plumbing is working at optimum efficiency.
A telltale sign of a burst pipe is water marks on walls in your home. Oftentimes pipes run behind the walls of your home and if there is a burst pipe in your system causing a leak, water marks will likely be left on your wall.
