How do I detect and fix leaks in my plumbing?

To detect leaks, regularly check your water meter and look for wet spots or water stains around your home. If you find a leak, it’s best to fix it as soon as possible to save water and avoid costly damage. You can try to patch small leaks yourself, but be extremely careful. A fitting that doesn’t hold on a pressurized water line can lead to a flood in minutes. Calling a plumber is a good idea because they have the tools and experience to fix your problem efficiently without causing damage to your home.
