Water leaks you can’t see, whether they are behind walls, under concrete slabs or in the ceiling, are easy to ignore. Unfortunately, these types of water leaks tend to do the most damage and waste the most water.

As a pinhole water leak continues to drip, the drywall absorbs the water, causing decay. Fungl and mold start to grow. Eventually polluting the air of your home or business with mold spores.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, water leaks lead to mold problems which cause allergic reactions, including coughing, sneezing, rash and itchy eyes. But prolonged exposure can result in serious harm such as severe headaches, reduced sense of smell, infections and breathing problems.
