Your property uses perhaps miles of piping to carry water from one point to another, and even more to carry away waste water to the sewer system. If a leak develops in that vast, complex network, it can be very difficult to ascertain the location of the leak, much less to repair it.
One problem with pipe leak repair is that water often does not drip directly down from the leak. It may run along the pipe for a distance, before dripping off, possibly onto another pipe, where it may run for another distance before dripping again. It makes it difficult for those without training and experience to locate the leak.
It should also be noted that even a minor leak can lead to much larger problems. Water leaking onto metal surfaces can cause rust and corrosion, leading to further damage and the need to replace equipment or gas lines.
There is also the possibility of mold growth, damage to drywall or other construction materials, and more. Wood can rot, plaster can degrade, and even cement can be damaged given enough time and exposure to moisture.
