Burst Pipes
Leaking and burst pipes are sometimes hard to detect as they can occur in hidden pipework, under the house or in wall cavities. You may suspect a burst or leaking pipe if you are receiving higher than normal water bills or if your water pressure seems lighter than normal. Water staining on ceilings is another give away. An easy way to ascertain whether you are in fact dealing with leaking pipes is to turn off all your taps and to watch your water meter - if it still moves it is time to call the plumber.
