For a few months I had heard a drip in my family room, then i just ignored it and then my pal and I started noticing moisture detriment in my custom made family room cupboards, then now that was starting to be a problem, however the cupboards were going to get wrecked and there was a faint musty odor that just lingered.
I realized the drip was leading to a lot of detriment and becoming more than an irritant.
I am not a plumber by any means. I didn’t want to try fixing a pipe on my own. I also didn’t even know where the leak was coming from. So I looked around and asked around. I then found a licensed plumber that was willing to do leak detection and repair for a acceptable rate. The guy got underneath my sink and found the problem was a loose attachion. He tightened that up, replaced some worn piping and got me back in business. I paid the bill and he left. I did some research and realized that if I would have left the leak longer I could have experienced serious wood rot and structural detriment. I could have experienced mold and mildew growth… Bugs, insects, and roaches would have wanted to come into my house. I also would have ruined my cottageets, tile, and even the support that the sink was on. Isn’t that crazy? A small leak also leads to gallons of water waste as well. That is a lot of money and water wasted simply because I am too lazy to get on the PC right away.
