Keep reading for what you need to look for, and remember that you can count on Dailey Company, Inc. for pipe leak inspections in College Station at any time.

You may be dealing with a water leak and need leak detection if:

  • Your floorboards are warped - Wood and water don't mix well so if your wooden floorboards are a little warped it could be because they've been exposed to water.
  • Your wallpaper is stained or curling - Also look out for cracks in your wall paper, as not all leaks are going to be strong enough to produce a stain.
  • There are raised spots/bubbles in your wall paint - If you have wall paint that's changing or misshapen in any way it could be because of a leak on the other side of the wall.
  • There is persistent mold and mildew throughout your house - If you have a leak in a part of the home that doesn't have proper ventilation then you could get mold or mildew growth as a result.
  • There are musty smells around your house - Mold and mildew come with a pungent smell that's fairly noticeable and you should call in our College Station leak detection experts.
  • There is water pooling on your floors - Water on your carpets or floor is another indication that you could use our leak detection services so give us a call.
  • There is water seeping up through your yard - If it seems like there's water coming from under your yard, it's coming from your sewer. Look out for an uptick in bugs and animals that like your yard more than normal.
  • You have noticed your water bill steadily rising - If you want to test if you have a leak, turn off all your water and head to your water meter. If it's not at 0 then you have a leak.

  • Can leaks happen outside my home, like in the yard?

    Yes. Underground leaks in your sewer or water main lines can cause:

    • Soggy spots in your yard
    • Puddles with no rain
    • An increase in insects or rodents
    • Low water pressure indoors

    This is extremely common at the water meter in the Brazos Valley due to local soil conditions. Dailey Company, Inc. provides a lasting solution: we replace all plastic threaded fittings with metal and install a section of flexible type A PEX piping. This allows the water line to adapt to soil movement, preventing future leaks.

  • Does homeowners insurance cover leak detection and repair?

    It depends. Many policies cover water damage caused by sudden, accidental pipe leaks, but may not cover:

    • Gradual or long-term leaks
    • Cost of leak detection services
    Always check with your insurance provider to understand your specific policy coverage.
  • Why is my water bill so high all of a sudden?

    A sudden spike in your water bill is a key sign of a hidden leak. If your water usage habits haven’t changed, a leak is likely the cause.

    Other hidden leak issues – it is common for us to find that fixtures such as toilets have internal defects that cause water to leak into the sewer. This results in a high water bill without visible signs of leakage. The same can happen with broken hose bibs, R.O. systems, and commercial ice makers.

    It’s important to maintain these fixtures regularly. Dailey Company, Inc. offers a Fixture Service Plan (FSP) to help keep your system in top shape.

    Monitor your water meter and call a professional if the problem persists.

  • How much water is wasted from household leaks?

    According to the EPA, household leaks waste more than 1 trillion gallons of water annually in the U.S. alone. Common culprits include:

    • Dripping faucets
    • Leaky toilet flappers
    • Cracked pipes
    • Undetected underground leaks

    Stopping leaks saves water, money, and the environment.

  • Can water leaks cause mold or mildew?

    Absolutely. Moisture from hidden leaks creates the perfect environment for mold and mildew growth, especially in poorly ventilated areas like behind walls or under flooring. This can trigger:

    • Allergies
    • Respiratory problems
    • Structural damage

    If you smell must or see mold spots, it’s time to call for leak detection.

  • What should I do if I think I have a leak?

    Follow these steps:

    1. Turn off all appliances and water fixtures.
    2. Check your water meter. If it continues to run, you likely have a leak.
    3. Look for visible signs like damp walls, warped floors, or musty odors.
    4. Call Dailey Company, Inc. at (979) 260-2020 for expert leak detection and repair.

  • Is a small water leak really a big deal?

    Yes! Even small leaks waste thousands of gallons of water over time and can lead to expensive damage to floors, walls, and foundations. Left unchecked, they can cause:

    • Mold growth
    • Wood rot
    • Structural issues
    • Increased utility bills
