Water leak are one of the most common and costly problems for homeowners in Cyprus. Due to high water pressure, older plumbing systems, and warm weather, even a small hidden leak can quickly turn into serious damage

Some leaks are obvious, but many remain hidden behind walls or under floors. Watch out for:

• Unexplained increase in your water bill
• Damp or discolored walls and ceiling
• Mold or musty smells
• Low water pressure
• sounds of running water when taps are off
• Water pump working no stop

• Aging pipe systems
• High summer temperatures causing pipe expansion
• Hard water that wears pipes faster

These factors increase the risk of hidden water leaks

Before calling a professional, you can:

• Turn off all tap and check if the water meter is still moving
• Inspect visible pipes under skins
• Check outdoor areas for wet spots

DIY methods help, but they cannot locate hidden leaks accurately

Modern leak detection uses:

• Acoustic sensors
• Thermal cameras
• Pressure testing
• CCTV pipe inspections

These methods locate leaks without breaking tiles or walls, saving time and money.

Call a specialist if:

• The leak location is unknown
• Water damage is spreading
• Your water bill keeps increasing

Early professional detection prevents structural damage and expensive repairs.
