Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak

Leaks aren’t always easy to spot. Some stay hidden underground or behind walls, slowly causing damage without you even realising. Common warning signs include water stains on ceilings or walls, damp patches underfoot, musty smells, mould growth, or an unexpected jump in your water bill. You might also hear the sound of running water when no taps are on.

A quick way to check is by turning off all taps and appliances, then reading your water meter. If the numbers change after an hour without using water, chances are you’ve got a leak. If that’s the case, give Curran a call, and we’ll track it down before it causes bigger problems.
