What are the common causes of water leaks?
There are many common causes of water leaks, which 90% of the population of Saudi Arabia are exposed to, as follows:
Buying poor quality plumbing fixtures, faucets and water pipes that do not withstand water pressure, are affected by time and are subject to rust and holes.
Establishing the plumbing incorrectly from the beginning. Choosing a specialized technician to establish home plumbing is important to prevent leakage in the future.
Leave the water taps in bathrooms and kitchens open for long periods, especially if you are outside the house for a long time.
Failure to secure the building with insulation from the beginning of construction makes the building more vulnerable to the effects of external erosion factors leading to water leaks.
Neglecting to contract with the periodic inspection company that intervenes quickly in the event of a leakage from the beginning and to verify the safety of the water extensions first hand.
Failure to take care of the cleanliness of the tank and not to isolate it leads, over time, to eroding the structure of the tank, cracking and cracking the walls, and thus smuggling water.

Damage caused by water leaks in installations
Water leaks cause many damages. They are not a simple problem, as they cause dangers to the concrete structure, and ignoring the intervention at the beginning and repairing it causes a complete collapse of the building.
Leaked water affects the concrete of the building, causing erosion of walls, ceilings, and foundation bases, and the building losing its strength and rigidity.
Water leaks make insects more attracted to settle in this building and homes because they are attracted to places of moisture.
There is no doubt that the most important factor that occurs immediately after water leaks is moisture in the building both internally and externally, and this leads to the spread of unpleasant odors and putridity, and this matter is more dangerous for individuals with chest allergies and asthma.
Also, increasing the water bill is one of the most prominent damages resulting from water leaks, as this will cost you huge money paid monthly without consuming a large amount of water for daily needs.
