The Orlando, Florida and Atlanta, Georgia areas have chronic problems with hidden plumbing leaks, usually foundation or slab leaks. The water in the southern United States is filled with lime rock scale and deposits. This is very abrasive to pipes over time and cause plumbing pipes to fail.
Many times this type of leak takes years to develop, starting out as small pinhole leaks invisible to eye. In a couple of weeks or even months, it grows larger and starts causing severe damage to the home and business they are under, all without anyone noticing. These undetected leaks lead to water and mold damage to floors, behind cabinets and interior wall cavities. Mold thrives in damp dark places; it only takes 24 hours for mold to start to grow after the water damage ensues. These leaks can also lead to to structural issues; the foundation can shift from the water moving the fill dirt causing walls, floors and ceiling to crack.
Usually the home or business owner will notice damp spots on the floor, visible mold growth, base trim separating from the wall or a high water bill, either way they end up contacting their insurance company. Repairing any leak can be very messy and get expensive, especially a slab or foundation leak.
