No one wants to see sewage backing up into their sinks, bathtubs or toilets, but an overly-full septic tank causes this to happen.Home :: Ceiling Water Leak Repair & Detection A burst plumbing pipe or a leak in the u-trap under your sink will often make themselves known right away, but a plumbing leak hidden above your ceiling can be trickier to detect. Most of the plumbing in your house is hidden from view, concealed behind the walls or above the ceilings. When these pipes begin to leak, you might not notice right away, even while dripping water is slowly damaging your ceiling and jacking up your water bill. The longer your ceiling leaks, the more damage you?ll have to deal with. Timely repairs are important, and you can save money and time by calling a plumbing repair company as soon as you begin to suspect that you might have a leaking pipe. Ceiling Water Leak Detection Professional plumbers are experts at accurate leak detection, but in some cases, you may be able to find the approximate location of the leak yourself. Some of the main clues as to the water leak?s location can include: - Water dripping from your ceiling. This one is fairly obvious, although if it?s on the top floor, you may also want to rule out the possibility that your roof might be leaking. If the leak doesn?t seem to correlate with the weather outside, it?s probably coming from your pipes. - Visible discoloration. When your ceiling is exposed to water from a leaking pipe, it will gradually begin to appear discolored and dull. If you notice a rounded, irregular area of dark, musty discoloration, it?s probably a sign of a plumbing pipe leak. - Sagging areas of the ceiling. Waterlogged areas of your ceiling will often begin to sag and buckle downward, indicating ongoing water damage. - Mold growth that won?t go away. Moistened ceilings create an ideal habitat for unwanted mold and mildew growth. Even when you scrub and sanitize the area, the mold will eventually grow back. This means the area has a continual supply of moisture, probably from a plumbing leak. Fungal spores can irritate your nose, eyes, lungs, and throat, so pipe leak repair is important to protect your health. One option for keeping watch for plumbing leaks is to install an automatic leak detection system in your home. There are a couple of different kinds of leak detection systems available, including: - Passive leak detection systems, which are independent battery-powered devices that sound an alarm when they detect moisture nearby. - Appliance leak detection systems. These systems are attached to a particular appliance, like a water heater or washing machine. The both sound an alarm to alert homeonwers, and also act to actively inhibit water flow to prevent further leakage until you can get it fixed. - Whole house leak detection systems. These systems both detect and stop water leakage, and include multiple sensors that communicate wirelessly. Plumbing Repair for Ceiling Water Leaks If you suspect that you probably have a water leak in your home, it?s a good idea to call a professional plumber. Plumbing leak repair will prevent any further water damage in your home, as well as spotting other problems with nearby pipes that could lead to more leaks in the future.
