Causes of water Leakage

Rusty pipes - In the days of all-copper and galvanized steel piping, rust was a significant concern. Even small amounts of rust could spread quickly, compromising pipe integrity and causing tiny leaks. Over time, that excess moisture could cause mold and attract bugs, such as carpenter ants.

After so many years of use, pipes naturally begin to rust and deteriorate, eventually leading to cracks and crevices that release various amounts of water. Also, natural shifting of your house frame or foundation can cause the joints in your plumbing to loosen or separate, which causes water leaks.

Uneven water pressure - If you live in the city, chances are your home is supplied by public water lines, while homeowners in the country are likely using septic systems. In both cases, blockage or cracking may cause pressure problems; the same can occur if you have any improperly installed plumbing. Consistent pressure is important because most fixtures  showerheads, faucets and even appliances like dishwashers  are rated to withstand only a certain amount of pressure. If too much water comes through the pipes too quickly, these fixtures can crack and leak.

Temperature changes - Large temperature changes also can cause your pipes to crack and leak. This is common in extremely cold climates, but it can also happen in warmer areas if there’s a sudden cold spell and pipes aren’t properly insulated. And homeowners can make things worse by continually using the hottest setting on the water heater, thus encouraging cracks to widen and eventually burst metal pipes.

Tree roots - Tree roots cause problems when water and sewage pipes connected to your home crack, releasing small amounts of water vapor into the surrounding soil. This attracts tree roots, which burrow their way into pipes and eventually cause blockages but it’s a leak all the same, and can cost you a lot of money in water bills and repairs. What happens is that the plumbing and sewage pipes coming out of your home deteriorate over time, springing small leaks of vapor, which attracts roots to grow towards them.

Deterioration/Shifting of Pipes - This cause of leaking can be much harder to detect. After so many years of use, pipes naturally begin to rust and deteriorate, eventually leading to cracks and crevices that release various amounts of water. Also, natural shifting of your house frame or foundation can cause the joints in your plumbing to loosen or separate, which causes water leaks.

Sometimes it’s only a drop or two per minute, other times it’s a steady stream of water that leaks. All of this water has to go somewhere and can cause a damages if the leak is not detected and repaired in a timely manner.
