Can I fix a water leak myself or should I hire a professional?

You can fix small, visible leaks like a dripping faucet or loose P-trap if you can safely shut off the water. Hire a professional for leaks in walls or ceilings, slab, sewer or water lines, or a leaking water heater. A pro can locate hidden leaks with diagnostic tools and repair or replace pipes, lines, and fixtures. Prompt service helps reduce water damage. Tri-State provides drain cleaning, pipe repairs, sewer and water line solutions, and water heater installation.

Quick checks:

• Shut off the fixture or main valve.
• Take photos and note when it leaks.
• Avoid opening walls or touching water heaters.
