There’s nothing quite like discovering water where it shouldn’t be.

Maybe it’s a damp cabinet under the kitchen sink. Maybe it’s a faint stain spreading across the ceiling. Whatever it is, that small moment quickly turns into a bigger question: How bad is this going to be?

Homeowners in Tarrytown and throughout Westchester know that plumbing problems rarely announce themselves loudly at first. Most leaks start small and quiet. The key is catching them early—before they disrupt your home and your peace of mind.

Here are the most common places leaks begin:

1. Under the Sink
   Supply lines and drain fittings naturally loosen over time. Open those cabinet doors once a month and look for moisture, warping, or a musty smell.

2. Around Toilets
   If you notice water pooling at the base or slight rocking when seated, the wax seal may be failing. Left alone, that small leak can damage flooring beneath.

3. Dripping Faucets
   A slow drip feels harmless—but over time it wastes water and signals worn internal parts.

4. Behind Walls
   Unexplained increases in your water bill, reduced pressure, or wall discoloration can point to hidden pipe leaks.

Your home should feel steady and secure—not unpredictable. A quick inspection now can prevent expensive repairs later.

If something doesn’t look right, schedule your service and get a clear, straightforward solution before a small leak becomes a major problem.
