5 Symptoms of a Broken Pipe

We most likely believe that every minor problem has the potential to become a major problem. This usually occurs when problems are left unattended. In the case of plumbing system problems, such as a broken pipe, there are some indicators that your pipe is damaged. Here are some indications of a leaking pipe.

1. Smelly Smell

A clogged or broken pipeline can cause a foul odor to emanate from your bathroom or kitchen sink and drain. Blockages in pipes can also be a cause, resulting in backups. The foul odor it emits is primarily caused by wastewater that has not been transported into the sewage pipe. If left unattended, this could result in a serious health problem. Have your pipes inspected as soon as possible to avoid any health issues.

2. Damp Spots

This is most common in homes with embedded pipes and tubes in the ceiling and walls. Wet patches can be seen on the walls and ceilings, as well as on the basement floor where the pipelines are located. This is caused by a broken or cracked pipe that transports both wastewater and clean water. In areas where the damaged pipe is buried, wet spots and white patches can be seen. If the wet spots are ignored, they can grow into a bigger problem that will flood the entire house.

3. Banging and Clanking

This occurs as a result of pipes colliding with each other as the weight of the water weighs on them. This happens when the existing pipe reaches the end of its useful life or the joints become corroded. This may cause wear in some sections of the pipes. If you notice this sign in your plumbing system, you should have it repaired right away to avoid making the problem worse. This indication of a broken can lead to further complications. The best way to solve this issue is to replace the entire piping system.

4. Water Supply Issues and Expensive Water Bill

When you rarely have enough water to meet your needs but your water bill is skyrocketing, there must be a problem with your plumbing system. Call a plumbing professional as soon as possible to assist you in resolving this issue. Paying a high water bill is a waste of your hard-earned money because you are not receiving an adequate supply of water.

5. Noises of Bubbling and Gurgling

The pipes’ noises are caused by cracks and tiny holes in them. Air may enter the pipes through the holes, reducing the passageway for water volumes and making it difficult for water to pass through. If this occurs and is left untreated for an extended period of time, the accumulation of water pressure due to the restriction caused by the air can lead to a pipe burst, which could be a bigger problem. A bubbling noise will also be produced if the air from the crack cannot find its way out.
