Atlanta Plumbing Leaks; How to Find & Fix Them! - Leak Detection Blog | Orlando, Florida | Leak Doctor - 1A recent study by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety, “Prevent Water Damage from Plumbing Systems and Drains,” reveals just how much damage a small water leak can cost. “It only takes a small amount of water soaking into floors, walls or cabinets from a faulty pipe, or bubbling up from a backed-up sewer drain to cause thousands of dollars in damage to your home or business. An IBHS study of closed water damage insurance claims identified plumbing pipes and drain systems as leading causes of interior water damage.”

 “This type of failure costs homeowners time and money more often than any other source of water loss. The average cost of an incident was more than $5,000 after the insurance deductible was paid. The majority of insurance claims were caused by corroded, rusty, or frozen pipes, which can be prevented by proper maintenance.”

According to the IBHS here are a few signs to look for
