Ignoring minor leaks
Ignoring a minor leak can lead to major problems. “One of the biggest mistakes people make is ignoring a minor leak,” says Monell. “Whether it’s a leaking toilet, a cracked pipe, or a dripping faucet, small leaks can turn into big problems by damaging floors and ceilings, rotting drywall, and promoting dangerous mold growth—not to mention the damage costs a lot of money to repair.”
