Signs of a Burst Pipe
- Decreased water pressure.
- Flooded, wet or soaked floors (this includes your front lawns/back lawns)
- Dark patches or stains in the structure of your home (ceilings or walls)
- Mould patches around the property
- Loud, rattling or unusual sounds.
- Abnormal peeling of paint or lifting of tiles
What Causes a Water Pipe to Burst?
Tree Roots
Tree roots will wreak havoc on your plumbing system, growing rapidly and silently around your pipes. Eventually, the pressure will be far beyond your pipe’s threshold, causing them to burst.
Damaged or Weak Pipes
Nothing (unfortunately) lasts forever. Hence over time, your pipes may corrode, become weakened or become structurally compromised. The walls of the pipes may not be able to handle the pressure of the water and cracks may begin to form. From here, water will begin seeping through the cracks, causing a burst pipe.
What Damage Can Be Caused by Burst Pipes?
Flooding
If you are experiencing dark or wet patches in your ceilings or walls, this is a tell-tale sign that water is seeping through. Eventually, the structural integrity of your home will be unable to withstand large amounts of water, causing the structures to give way and flood your home. Once your home floods, it’s a quick race to move your electricals and furniture away from the affected areas before your goods are damaged permanently.
Mould Growth
A silent killer in any residential or commercial property. Damp areas are a breeding ground for mould and bacteria. Besides the unpleasant sight of mould inside of your property, it can pose severe respiratory concerns for you, your family and/or staff members.
