10 Signs You Have a Hidden Water Leak
The subtle clues that mean water is escaping somewhere inside your home.
An unexplained jump in your water bill is the biggest red flag. Check your meter with all fixtures off — if it keeps moving, you have a leak.
Musty smells, warm spots on the floor, peeling paint, and running toilets are the next most common signs.
Ignoring a small leak often leads to mold, subfloor rot and drywall damage that costs far more than the plumbing fix.
