A leaking pipe under the bathroom sink is one of the most common areas for leaks to occur. Left untamed and unmanaged, these leaks can easily get out of hand and begin to start causing damage to your home and possibly to your health. To ensure you don't fall victim to one of these leaks, we've created a guide to help you spot them before they develop.
Signs You Have a Leaking Pipe Under The Bathroom Sink
Low Water Pressure
If you experience low water pressure when using the bathroom, you may have a leaking pipe under the bathroom sink. If low pressure persists, no matter the setting of the tap, it's a sure-fire sign that you need to have repair work completed. Firstly, you can try and discover whether the tap is clogged. If that bears no fruit, it's likely there is a leak somewhere in the system.
No Hot Temperature
If there is little or no hot water in your system, it's worth checking out. If the tap turns cold almost as soon as you turn it on, your water heater may have leaked or there could be an issue elsewhere in the system.
Mould
Developing mould is an indicator that water is escaping somewhere in the system. If there are signs of mould around the piping near your bathroom sink, this is a sign that the leak is somewhere in that area. It's important to have this seen to as soon as possible as mould can cause health and structural complications.
