Leaking Pipes: A Hidden Threat Beneath Your Home
Texas weather is responsible for the second largest threat to a home’s plumbing. Extended drought and that occasional freeze can shift and crack a home’s foundation.
While most homeowners focus on what’s visible, the real danger often lies beneath the surface. Underground pipes, especially in Texas, are susceptible to leaks due to:
- Shifting Foundations: As soil expands and contracts with temperature changes, it can cause movement in foundations, putting stress on underground pipes and leading to leaks.
- Aging Pipes: Older pipes are more vulnerable to corrosion, cracks, and leaks.
Tree Root Intrusion: Aggressive tree roots can penetrate pipes, causing leaks and blockages.
Consequences of Leaky Pipes:
- Water Damage: Leaks can lead to significant water damage, affecting your foundation, walls, and flooring.
- Mold and Mildew: Water damage can create ideal conditions for mold and mildew growth, posing health risks.
- Increased Utility Bills: Leaky pipes can waste water, leading to higher utility bills.
- Structural Issues: Severe leaks can weaken the structural integrity of your home.
