Water leaks are not uncommon. Most homeowners have experienced this. And before you go ahead and call the experts for professional leak detection Brisbane, we suggest that you try out these DIY ways to be sure whether there is a water leak in your home or not:
 

Look Out for Discoloured Patches in Your Floor Walls and Ceilings: If you find discoloured patches in your ceilings or floor walls, there is a high chance that you have water leak issues in your home. These patches will not appear suddenly. They will make their presence felt when the leak is happening for few months now.

You Find Wet Patches in the Garden Even When the Weather is Dry: Is the grass wet in your garden even when the weather is dry and you have not watered it yet? Why do you think this is happening? In most cases when you have issues with the plumbing system, the water tends to leak from every possible place.

You are Experiencing Low Water Pressure Every Time You Use ...
... the Shower: When you use the shower, you find that the water pressure has gone down. You have not regulated the shower in the recent times and yet the water pressure is not that great. This is indicative that there are leak issues in your home.

There are Weird Noises Whenever You Use the Flush and Other Plumbing Systems: Is the flush making a weird noise every time you use it? There may be weird sounds when you use the kitchen sink or the laundry room as well. Pay attention to these sounds, they are saying something.

There is A Sudden Growth of Mould and Mildew in Your Home: Moulds and mildews are a sure shot sign of water leak in the house; otherwise they will not be seen. The moment you notice them, you should inspect the house to find out the leak. The sooner you do it the better it will be.

The Musty Smell is Getting Stronger by the Day: You will have a musty smell in the house if the property is closed for some time and is not well ventilated. Another time when you will have this musty smell is when there is a water leak in the house and it is undetected for quite some time.

 
If you notice any one or more of these signs, you should immediately get in touch with the experts for a detailed professional leak detection Brisbane.
