Repairing Leaky Pipes

Another reason you need a professional plumber for Lafayette jobs is the possibility of sneaky leaks! You may think you've located the leak and have it fixed, only to realize that's not the only one. Professional leak detection can identify the source of any and all existing leaks. For older plumbing, it may be time to consider pipe replacement. 
Some of the most common causes of leaky pipes: 

• Intruding tree roots 
• Older pipe corrosion 
• Clogged lines and built-up pressure 
• Underground movement and ground shifting 
• High water pressure 
• Incorrect pipe laying 
• Compromised pipe joints 

Whatever the cause may be, you need experts to locate the leaks and address each one. 

What Happens To Undetected Leaks 

At Master Drain Services, we've seen all too often the devastation that can occur when a homeowner fails to hire a professional plumber to detect possible leaks. The problem is much worse when a homeowner goes away for an extended period of time. If you're planning to be away from your home for a week or more, leak detection is a wise preventative maintenance task to schedule. 
Undetected leaks can cause severe water damage to your home and furnishings, enough so that sometimes the damage is beyond repair. Aside from water damage, there's the concern for mold growth, which can ruin walls and pose a health threat. It's time to call us in Lafayette and get proactive about scheduling your leak detection.
