Burst pipes are costly fixtures causing damage and a lot of inconveniences. This happens to your water pipes and your gas pipes, which could be more dangerous.
You can prevent burst pipe Sydney from happening or lessen its occurrences. Know why your pipes break in the first place and the indications before you encounter a burst water pipe or request for a burst pipe repair Sydney.
What Causes Burst Pipes
1. The expansion of water inside the pipes when it’s freezing can be too much, causing the water pipe to burst.
2. High pressure from the utility company or improper adjustment of pressure valves can cause high water pressure, which can overwhelm and cause water pipe bursts.
3. A weakened pipe due to corrosion can lower the maximum pressure it can withstand. Corrosion can also cause clogging, bursts or leaking pipes, increasing the water pressure.
4. Ground movement can ruin underground plumbing lines, causing them to burst. While you can’t do anything about the earth’s activities, you can prevent damage to your drainage and pipe leaks and avoid flooding and bursting. You can also check for hidden leaks before pipes burst and cause serious damage or other plumbing problems.
5. The wear and tear of one’s property are natural. And so does your plumbing system. But you can double the lifespan of your pipes, drainage, fixtures and appliances with proper installation, periodic maintenance and prompt emergency response.
When To Call A Professional To Deal With Your Burst Pipes
The most common sign of a damaged pipe is finding puddles of water around the worn-out part. It can have disastrous results if you don’t fix it immediately.
If the water pressure in your faucet is lower or you’ve got a low water supply, it can indicate that you may have a burst pipe. As a result, the water doesn’t reach the faucet easily; instead, most of it escapes through the leak.
Another sign of a worn-out pipe is high water bills. You may find a water leakage from the damaged portion leads to wastage and affects the water pressure. Hence, people use more water than they should, increasing costs.
Apart from this, large stains on the walls are also a giveaway that water is leaking from some part of the pipeline. It’s essential to identify the location of the stain as it could help pinpoint the source of the problem.
