Water is the most powerful force on earth, and even a small, steady drip can eventually break through rock. While the installation of indoor plumbing has dramatically increased the quality of life in the modern era, it has also brought the most powerful force on the planet into our homes.
If left unchecked or ignored, water leaks in your plumbing system can cause severe damage to your home. They can cause cosmetic damage like water stains, health risks like mold growth, and safety risks like structural damage. Early detection of leaks and prompt repair can minimize water damage.
Whether dealing with a small drip or a hidden slab leak beneath your home, Evolve Plumbing has the expertise and equipment to locate and fix the problem quickly and efficiently.
Leaks aren’t always immediately obvious, especially when they occur behind walls, under floors, or beneath your home’s foundation. Here are some of the most common signs that you may have a leak in your plumbing system:
If you notice a sudden spike in your water bill without any change in your usage, it could be a sign of a hidden leak.
Discoloration or damp spots on walls, ceilings, or floors are often indicators of a leak in your plumbing system. The wall may also feel soft, or an area of the ceiling may droop down from the weight of the water.
Excess moisture from a leak can create the perfect environment for mold and mildew growth, leading to unpleasant odors and health concerns.
If your water pressure suddenly drops, it could be due to a leak in your plumbing lines that’s reducing the water flow.
Hearing the sound of running or dripping water when all taps are off is a strong indication of a hidden leak.
Slab leaks often cause warm or damp spots on your flooring, especially in areas where pipes run beneath your home’s foundation

Pipe Relining: For certain types of leaks, we can use a trenchless method called pipe relining. This involves inserting a new lining into the damaged pipe, sealing the leak from the inside without the need to dig up your foundation.
