Home Water Leak Solutions

Home Water Leak Solutions can be extremely stressful for homeowners and lead to costly clean-ups, repairs and loss of belongings. Whether it is from a burst pipe, an overflowing toilet or dripping taps, the problem can be difficult to identify and fix quickly, especially when the source of the leak is located underground and not immediately visible.

It is often possible to identify a water leak before it causes much damage, but how? The first step is to check that no one else has water running in their home. Turn off any faucets and appliances that are not being used, then check your water meter. If the numbers on the meter have increased after about an hour, this is a strong indication that there is a leak somewhere in your home or garden and a plumber needs to be called.

If a major leak is occurring, it’s essential to shut off the water supply at the main valve in your home, or the stopcock in your bathroom or kitchen. You can also find individual isolation valves under your sinks or in the bathrooms, which can be turned clockwise to stop the flow of water to that fixture or appliance.

You may also wish to use towels or buckets to catch any leaking water. This will limit the amount of damage that occurs and allow you to locate the source of the leak and communicate it clearly to a plumber.
