Why You Shouldn’t Ignore a Leaky Faucet

Leaky Faucet Needs Aedile Plumbing

A leaky faucet might seem like a minor annoyance, but it can lead to major problems if left unchecked. At Aedile Plumbing, we’ve seen firsthand how a simple drip can escalate into higher water bills, mold growth, and even pipe damage. If you’ve been putting off that repair, here’s why now is the time to act.

Wasted Water Adds Up Fast

One drip per second wastes over 3,000 gallons of water per year. That’s not just bad for the environment—it also hits your wallet. If your water bill is creeping up, a leaky faucet could be the cause.

Mold and Mildew Love Moisture

That steady drip can create the perfect environment for mold and mildew. This not only damages cabinets and counters, but it also poses health risks, especially for those with allergies or asthma. A quick fix can prevent expensive remediation later.

What Causes Faucet Leaks?

Most leaks happen due to worn-out washers, gaskets, or O-rings. Over time, these parts degrade and allow water to escape. In some cases, corrosion or poor installation is to blame. No matter the cause, our licensed technicians at Aedile Plumbing can fix it quickly and affordably.

Protect Your Plumbing System

A leaky faucet puts extra pressure on your entire plumbing system. Over time, that strain can lead to pipe wear and hidden leaks elsewhere. Early repairs help avoid major plumbing failures down the road.
