Signs of Leaking Household Faucets
Do you suspect your faucet has a leak? Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Empire lists common signs of a leaky faucet in your home:
Faucet Drips
Can you see or hear signs of drips in your home? You might not notice dripping noises or spots in rooms you don’t occupy as much, letting the issue worsen. We strongly recommend listening closely in rooms you use frequently and routinely checking rooms you’re in less often.
Rust or Water Puddles
Are water or rust puddles showing up at your faucets’ bases, around your sink, tub, or shower drains, or on the floor beneath one of your faucets? Call Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Empire’s service professionals if any rust-colored puddles start collecting in your bathroom, kitchen, or anywhere else.
Higher Water Bill
Do you notice you’re paying higher-than-normal water bills? A water bill increase is one of the standard indicators of a water leak. If you think you have a water leak in your home, we urge you to call our service professionals to look at your pipes.
Squeaky Faucets
Squeaky faucets you have trouble turning on and off completely are sometimes a red flag that you may have a more severe household plumbing issue. It’s vital to have an experienced service provider check and resolve your home’s problematic squeaky faucets.
Mold or Rotten Food Smell
If you notice a moldy, rotten food smell in your home, this problem could be due to a leaking pipe. It’s essential to let a trained professional check out this issue immediately, and Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Empire is ready to respond to your service request.
Is My Toilet Leaking?
Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Empire has ample experience resolving a wide array of plumbing issues, from tankless water heaters to sewer lines. Sometimes, your toilet needs the same attention and care as the rest of your plumbing system. Do you suspect you have a leaky toilet? The following are common signs of a leaky toilet:
Faucet Noises
If bubbling noises or groaning sounds come from the pipes behind or below a toilet, a plumbing leak may be the cause.
Mysterious Water on the Bathroom Floor
Have you spotted mysterious water puddles collecting on your bathroom floor? Sometimes, this problem is an early plumbing issue indicator.
Uneven Floor or Tile
It’s more common than you might think for homeowners to spot one or more bumps on their bathroom floors or tiles pushing up around their toilets. They may soon find out they’ve had a slow leak for a while.
Moldy or Sewer Gas Smells
Strong, unpleasant smells like sewer gas or a moldy, rotten stench may tell you your toilet has a plumbing issue.
Signs Your Water Heater Has a Leak
Do you have concerns about whether your water heater might have a plumbing issue? We recommend reviewing the following signs that your water heater has a leak:
- Excess moisture or small puddles forming near the tank
- Raised floor tiles or uneven flooring close to your water heater’s base
- Dripping water or other unusual sounds and noises coming from your water heater
- Lack of hot water or a restricted supply
Signs of a Leaking Washing Machine
Even washing machines need professional attention sometimes, such as when a possible leak occurs. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Empire will gladly respond to your call and assess your appliance’s condition to identify leaks and other issues. A leaking washing machine hose’s common signs include the following:
- Cracked or bulging hoses
- Rusted or loose hose connections
- Small water puddles collecting near or behind your washing machine
- A musty or moldy odor in your laundry room
Signs of Other Household Leaks
Beyond major appliances, Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Inland Valley can diagnose and resolve several other potential leaks in various areas around your home, such as the following:
Natural Gas Line Leak
The natural gas heating your boiler’s water supply can be very harmful. The most common issue is carbon monoxide gas, and natural gas is incredibly flammable and fatal if a person is exposed to large quantities of this gas. The most common sign of natural gas leaks that people should know is the telltale rotten egg odor. If you have a natural gas line running into your home, you must keep fully charged carbon monoxide monitors near any appliance using natural gas for fuel or energy.
Broken Water Lines
A broken water line can lead to significant damage to your residence and surrounding property, and it can cause your water bill to rise suddenly. Builders and plumbers place water lines in a home’s walls or under a structure, so homeowners often don’t detect leaks until they see signs of resulting property damage. Regularly scheduled plumbing maintenance services by our highly trained service professionals are the surest way to avoid dealing with a broken water line.
