No type of plumbing leak is welcome and pleasant, but it is fortunate that the most common type of leak is also the less damaging type that is generally a lot easier and faster to handle with the correct strategy for plumbing leak repair. Markham homeowners sometimes think leaking fixtures such as a leaky faucet or constantly-running toilet aren't that big of a deal—the sound of moving water can be annoying, but at least it's safely contained and not causing water damage. The problem with these types of leaks is that all that leaking water is costing you money on your water bill, and it can add up a lot faster than you may think.
Leaking Couplings
Leaky couplings are another common problem. Couplings are the points where two pipes, or a fixture and a pipe, are joined together and sometimes they become loose or are damaged and spring a leak. Under a sink is a typical place for this to happen, so it's a good idea to check your under-sink kitchen or bathroom cabinet now and then to make sure everything is dry in there. Our professional plumbers have fixed numerous leaky fixtures and couplings, and it typically doesn't take long to get everything functioning normally again.
Leaky Pipes
Leaking pipes are a much more serious problem, and unfortunately, they can be really difficult to notice. Your plumbing pipes are usually tucked away out of sight behind walls and floors and even buried underground, so they can cause a lot of damage before they're eventually discovered. If you need plumbing leak repair for an underground pipe, you may be worried that your lawn is about to be ripped apart by a big trench, but that's not always necessary. Our experienced team of plumbers may be able to take care of plumbing leak repair or pipe replacement using trenchless methods such as pipe relining or hydraulic bursting and avoid the need to dig a destructive trench to reach the broken pipe.
