In most cases your plumbing problems will occur at or near your fixtures such as sinks, toilets and tubs and often the pipes themselves are the root of the problem. They can be temperamental - they can leak, sweat, freeze and make load noises. When it comes to plumbing leaks there are all kinds. Some can cause horrific damage while others are not as damaging. Stopping a leak depends on the type of leak, if it's at a joint, tighten the joint. If the leak is in a pipe remove the section that is leaking and replace it with a new section. However, sweating on a pipe can be mistaken as a leak. Sweating occurs when the water inside the pipe is colder than the surrounding humid air. A helpful way to control the moisture problem of a sweating pipe is to insulate the pipe. You can use several types of self-adhesive thick drip tape to easily stick on to the sweaty pipes.
