As homeowners we tend to ignore those little minor leaks that appear- thinking and assuming that they’re probably harmless and won’t cause us any issues. Maybe you even have signs of a leak in your home at the moment, and you’re playing ignorant and think that it might not turn into a more serious issue. However, water leaks should never be ignored no matter how small they are. Small leaks can quickly turn into huge, major problems that can cause bigger problems in our homes, costing thousands to repair, and even causing health problems. 

Here at Specialist Leak Detection we want to outline why its vital to detect leaks in your home early on. We are a leading provider of leak detection services across the south of England, providing a wide variety of leak detection services for homes and businesses.

Save Costs

One of the most important reasons to detect leaks in your home is to save costs, as small minor leaks can quickly escalate. A small leak will be a lot more affordable to repair, but if you leave the leak undetected then it can get a lot bigger which will be a lot more costly to repair. If you leave your leak undetected then it can cause serious issues and damage to your property which can cost you thousands of pounds to repair. Leaks can also cause our water bills to go up, meaning that we will be spending more money due to the pesky leak hidden in our property. So to save yourself money in the long run, its best to get your leaks checked out promptly.

Prevent Damage to your Property

Detecting leaks in your home early on, can also minimise damage. Although the small leak might not be causing you any issues at the moment, as it gets worse it can cause your home serious damage that can be unrepairable and also affect its value. Leaks can lead to damp, rot, and mould and affect the structure of our homes. It can cause cracks in our walls, odours, our walls warping and bubbling, and damage our ceilings and floors. If you leave your leak undetected, it can begin to damage your home which will be extremely costly not to mention stressful and time consuming to repair.

Ensure your Family’s Health Isn’t Affected

As well as being expensive to repair, and damaging your home, they can affect the health of you and anyone else living in your home. Water leaks can cause contamination to get into our water, which can affect the safety of this water and make it unsuitable to drink and potentially harmful. Leaks can also lead to mould and rot forming, which can cause respiratory problems, infections, allergies, asthma and also affect our immune system. Our health and the health of our families should be the most important thing to us, so to avoid any potential health issues its essential to address any potential leaks.
