HOW TO STOP A WATER LEAK BEFORE TOO MUCH DAMAGE IS DONE

Water leaks can cause extensive damage to property and equipment as well as generating disruption and inconvenience. The following pictures show how a long term small undetected water leak resulted in extensive damage to walls, floor and facilities in a care home leading to the closure of six bedrooms and the temporary relocation of six elderly and frail people whilst repairs were carried out. The source of all the damage and disruption to the care home was a small leak from one on the many water pipe joints hidden behind the panelling in one of the bathroom service cupboards. The water had been leaking onto the screed floor over a long period of time and had travelled the length of the corridor affecting all six rooms.
