Leak Repair & Detection

Leak Repair & Detection Services in Lexington

Leaks and holes in pipes can be both dangerous and very expensive. The average cost of a home water damage insurance claim is $6,965 in the United States.

While flooding and major leaks are the obvious problems, small drips and leaks often go unnoticed and unattended, and can be just as costly. In fact, the EPA estimates that the average household’s leaks can account for more than 10,000 gallons of wasted water each year. However, fixing these leak issues can save homeowners over 10 percent of their monthly water bills.

How to Prevent Flooded Basements in Kentucky

Basement flooding is not uncommon in Central Kentucky. The area’s severe seasonal weather can often mean excessive rainfall, which can quickly lead to flooded basements and water damage. Plumbing systems and common household appliances can also cause flooding if left unchecked. Here are three excellent ways to keep your basement free of water:

1. Pipe Monitoring System

Flo by Moen is a comprehensive water monitoring and shutoff system that will detect leaks in your system and then shut off your water to prevent water damage. It measures the PSI of your pipes and is triggered when it detects a leak. The system will then shut off your main water supply if it gets triggered to protect your home. It can also connect and report to your smartphone.

2. Sump Pumps

Sump pumps are essential to keeping your basement from flooding during Kentucky’s torrential rainfall. They pump out rising groundwater away from your house before it can rise above your basement level and flood your basement. With our rainstorms, sump pumps are crucial to protecting your basement, home, and foundation.

3. Plumbing System Inspection

Fayette’s complete Plumbing System Check and Safety Inspection includes a total system leak inspection, as well as water quality tests and overall plumbing efficiency. Annual plumbing inspections will help prepare your home for unexpected leaks or plumbing emergencies. We’ll find leaks or failing pipes and get those fixed or replaced before they become serious problems. Contact us to learn more about our Plumbing System Check.
