There are several different factors that can contribute to plumbing leaks in your home, the most common causes include:
- Old Pipes - Old pipes are especially problematic because they may have become brittle or corroded over time, leading to small cracks or holes in the pipe itself.
- Faulty Connections - Faulty connections are another common culprit; when joints between pipes become loose due to wear and tear or improper installation, they may start leaking water into the surrounding area.
- Damaged Valves - Damaged valves or pipe joints could be caused by freezing temperatures, tree roots growing through pipes, clogs from debris buildup in the line, or simply age-related deterioration of pipe materials.
