If you find yourself noticing a sudden change in water pressure, there is likely to be an underlying reason behind this. In some cases, you may find that bad water pressure can be caused by minor issues such as too much demand for water within the household or an open water valve which can be resolved quickly and easily. However, unexpectedly bad water pressure can also be a key indicator that you are facing a leak and may require professional leak detection.
Spotting a sudden change in water pressure should be immediately obvious, especially if you have lived in your property for some time. Unusually low water pressure could be an indicator of a leak coming from your water mains pipe, effecting the flow of water that can reach your faucets. If the water pressure is particularly poor, it can imply a more severe leak so should be addressed immediately.
If there is some damage on the pipework supplying water to your home, it will be your responsibility to source an expert who is able to locate the problem and repair the site of the leak. In some cases, faults can become a frequent occurrence if the quality of the water mains pipe has deteriorated. More commonly noticed in older houses, the pipework can be prone to issues and will end up being more cost-effective to undergo complete water pipe replacement.
