Warning Signs Worth a Call
A leak often shows itself somewhere other than where it starts. These signs usually mean water is moving where it should not.
- Your water bill jumped without a change in household use.
- A wall, ceiling or baseboard has a spreading stain or feels soft.
- There is a damp patch on the floor or a warm spot on a slab.
- Water pressure dropped at several fixtures at once.
- The water meter keeps moving with every fixture turned off.
- You smell musty air near a cabinet, closet or crawlspace.
What to Do Right Now
- 1Shut off the nearest fixture valve or the main water supply when it is safe to do so.
- 2Keep people and pets away from sewage or contaminated water.
- 3Do not touch electrical devices, outlets or panels near standing water.
- 4If you suspect a gas leak, leave the property and contact emergency services or the gas utility.
- 5Call and explain the symptoms and the location in the home.
Do not attempt repairs you are not comfortable with. Describe what you are seeing on the call instead.
Why Plumbing Fails in Dallas–Fort Worth Homes
North Texas soil and weather put unusual stress on residential plumbing. These are possible contributing factors, not a diagnosis — the cause is confirmed on site.
- Expansive clay soil that swells and shrinks with moisture, moving whatever is buried in it.
- Foundation movement that can stress supply and drain lines running under a slab.
- Slab-leak warning signs such as a warm spot on the floor, a running meter or a jump in usage.
- Freeze and thaw damage to hose bibbs, exposed lines and unheated wall cavities.
- Extreme summer heat and heavy irrigation demand on main water lines.
- Hard-water buildup in fixtures, valves and water heaters.
