Five Plumbing Checks That Prevent Expensive Leaks

Small signs often show up long before a leak becomes visible damage. Here is what to look for.

1. Under-sink connections

Look for moisture, corrosion or staining around flexible hoses and valves.

2. Water heater condition

Rust, noise or water around the base are worth having inspected.

3. Drain speed

Slow drains can indicate a developing blockage.

4. Water meter readings

A meter moving with all outlets closed may point to a hidden leak.

5. Ceiling and wall staining

Discolouration below wet areas should be investigated early.

General guidance only. Have a qualified technician assess your specific system.
