There are many symptoms to look out for regarding the occurrence of a slab leak. Some symptoms of a slab leak to keep an eye on are cracks in the walls and flooring. Another symptom of a slab leak occurring is when you have low water pressure or a short supply of hot water. One symptom that really stands out is the constant hearing of running water when all water has been turned off. Slab leak symptoms also occur when you come across a hot spot and moisture which could lead to the buildup of mildew. Rodgers Plumbing also suggest taking a look at your water bills, if your bill has increased over time that usually indicates a slab leak behind your walls.
A Slab Leak is a water leak under the concrete foundation of a home or property. They are also known as foundation and concrete slab leaks. When these leaks occur above the floor they are known as pinhole leaks.
Rodgers Leak Detection Services include under the concrete Slab, behind or inside of walls, line tracing, irrigation systems, landscaping leaks, water main leaks, under foundation leaks, etc.
A running toilet is a big concern. Not only is it a nuisance to listen to but it is a waste of water and money. Toilets that leak can add almost $100 a year to your water bills.
This is caused when cold water fills the tank while there is humid air in the bathroom. The condensation on the exterior of your toilet can last for days. If this is the case your toilet can lead to water damage including mold, corrosion of metal parts, and the rotting of flooring, the sub-floor and floor framing.
Low water pressure can be caused by malfunctioning shut off valve, and a crimped waterline. If your neighbor has strong water pressure the problem may exist in your water meter.
The stems in your faucet may be deteriorating. This occurs when washers, rings or cartridges become worn out or broken. A Rodgers Plumbing expert will be able to fix or replace the leaky faucet.
Water appears to be discolored because of a rusty iron pipe. This occurs when rust dissolves into the water turning it a shade of brown, orange, and sometimes yellow. The cause of the issue can either be a problem with a pipe in your home or the city’s water main system. At Rodgers Plumbing we notice this problem can also occur when the local fire departments flush the hydrants which sometimes can cause temporary discoloration in your water.
