If you discover leaking pipes, schedule a visit with your local plumber. This is especially true if you do not know how extensive the problem is, or how long it has been occurring. This will help prevent additional damages and repair minor leaks quickly. Many times these problems take place in hard to access areas, such as, under the sink, between the floors and in the basement. A continuous leak damages walls, floors and foundations. Constant exposure to this moisture increases the likelihood of problems later.

No matter what the size of your leaking pipes, they have the potential to cause severe damages to your home and property. Large leaks cause immediate harm while small leaks often fly beneath the radar and soak into rugs, paneling and foundations. These are the areas where mold and mildew thrive. Leaking pipes require experienced professionals who understand the importance of mold remediation and removal. Keep your pipes in good condition will protect you and your property.

A qualified plumber, with the right tools and equipment, can assess your situation and offer an accurate, reliable solution to your problem. Whether you need a new shutoff valve, the trap cleaned out or the seals replaced on the faucet, it is important to repair these problems when they first occur. This not only saves money on future repairs, it also protects your home’s property value.
