How to Detect A Burst/Leaking pipe
Signs that You Might Have a Plumbing Leak
Some plumbing leaks are obvious. "Gusher leaks," stemming from a burst or separated pipe, spew out a major amount of water. However, other types are harder to detect. Stay alert and use your eyes, ears, and sense of smell to tell you when your plumbing is leaking. Here are some possible signs:
● Strange noises from your plumbing system like hissings, gurglings, or the sound of endlessly running water.
● Discolored, bubbling, peeling, or damp patches on ceilings, walls, or floors.
● A "hot spot" on your floor which may indicate a hot water leak below.
● Water anywhere it shouldn't be: on the bathroom floor after a shower (even though you had the shower door or curtain closed), around the base of your toilet, inside an under sink cabinet, or beneath your water heater.
● Cracking, buckling, or loose flooring material.
● A musty odor which could indicate mold.
● A water meter that registers usage even when no water source is turned on.
● An inexplicably muddy section of your yard, with greener grass than on the rest of your lawn.
How to Hire a Quality Plumber
Before hiring a plumber, determine exactly what you need: that's going to be an important factor when it comes to deciding which plumber is best for you.
Once you're satisfied that a plumber is qualified and operating above board, you can call around to get some quotes. Be sure to describe the job completely, and be aware that the plumber may need to conduct a home visit to go over the situation and determine if there are any special factors that might affect the price. When you talk to the plumber, ask if she is bonded and insured in case a problem with the job develops, and ask her about her plan for addressing the given plumbing issue you are experiencing.
A good plumber will provide sound, reasonable advice, even if it means not making as much on an individual job.
Does Insurance Cover Plumbers?
It really depends on the scope and urgency of the plumbing issue. If you're dealing with a burst pipe - an emergent, potentially costly situation, call your homeowner's insurance emergency number and find out how to have one of their authorized plumbing contractors repair the damage ASAP. Attempting a DIY plumbing repair in this instance might void your insurance coverage.
For most other plumbing issues, there's usually no need to involve your insurance company.
