How can I check for a hidden leak?

Turn off every faucet and water-using appliance, then watch your water meter. If the dial or leak indicator keeps moving, water is likely escaping somewhere.

Can a small drip wait?

A slow drip may not be urgent, but it can damage cabinets and flooring over time. Leaks inside walls or ceilings should be checked sooner.

Will a plumber need to open my wall?

Sometimes. Leak-detection tools help narrow the location so any opening is as small as possible.

Does homeowners insurance cover leaks?

Coverage varies by policy. Check with your insurer — documenting the damage with photos is helpful either way.

What if the leak is outside in the yard?

It may be on the service line between the meter and the house. Leaks on the city side of the meter are typically reported to your water utility.

Houston-specific considerations

Houston's humidity means damp areas can grow mold quickly, so it pays to address leaks early. Shifting clay soils can also crack pipes under slabs and in yards.
