Why You Should Never Ignore a Slow Drip

A slow drip may seem minor, but even small leaks create long-term problems. From wasted water to hidden structural damage, reacting early is always the best approach.

Hidden Damage Adds Up

Water that slowly drips from faucets, valves, or pipes often soaks into cabinets, drywall, and flooring before being noticed.

Hard Water Makes Drips Worse

Minerals in Northern Indiana water can corrode seals and valves, turning a small drip into a larger leak over time.

Leaks Rarely Fix Themselves

Once water finds a path, it continues to follow it. A tiny drip usually becomes a steady leak if ignored.
