Take Care of Plumbing Leaks Before They Start

MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Plumbing leaks can occur at any time and quickly cause hundreds of dollars in damage. Although things like a dripping faucet or running toilet may be easy to find and relatively quick to fix, it's the problems you may not see that can affect your home the most.

To help homeowners prevent plumbing leaks – or catch them before they become major problems – ARS/Rescue Rooter®, a privately held, nationwide provider of plumbing, drain cleaning, air conditioning and heating, recommends monthly inspections of water-using appliances, including:

• Dishwashers. Examine the connection to sink. Look for warping/fading of baseboards and flooring
• Refrigerators. Leaks can be detected by checking hose connections to the icemaker and inspecting the line
• Washing machines. Check hoses for cracks or excessive wear
• Sinks. Feel pipes for wear and loose connections
• Hot water heaters. Look below the tank for wet spots and check the tank exterior for rust or soft areas
• Bathtubs & toilets. Look for soft spots in the floor, check caulking and seals, listen for "running toilet" sounds when the toilet is not in use

Increases in water bills and dank odors coming from their floors or walls can also be signs of hidden leaks that should be inspected by a professional plumber.
