Experience
Unexplained increases in water bills
A sudden spike in your water bill with no obvious cause is one of the most common signs of a hidden leak.
Water stains on walls or ceilings
These often point to a leak somewhere in the plumbing running through that wall or the floor above.
A constantly running water meter
If your water meter keeps moving even when every fixture in the house is off, there's likely a leak somewhere in your system.
Warm spots on the floor
This can be a sign of a slab leak in the hot water line running beneath your foundation.
Musty smells or mold
Persistent moisture from a hidden leak often leads to mold growth and a musty odor, even if you can't see standing water.
