Two of the most common causes that our plumbing professionals see are leaking or burst pipes from your plumbing or heating system, or a leak that has developed from an issue with the condensate drainage from an attic-based air conditioning system. Pipes can malfunction or break due to corrosion, cracking or blockages, and when the leak is located in your ceiling or behind a wall, time is of the essence in getting the problem repaired correctly.<\/p>\n<h3>Kinds of Problems from Ceiling Leaks<\/h3>\n<p>Why is it urgent to get plumbing help right away when you have a ceiling leak? Here are some reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More damage to your system \u2013 if the leak is coming from your plumbing or heating piping, allowing the leak to continue can cause more damage to develop with your system, including corrosion.<\/li>\n<li>Damage to your home \u2013 one of the biggest problems when dealing with a ceiling leak is the water: it affects everything. Drywall or plaster will have to be replaced, and possibly any wood beams that have been affected by the water. Water damage becomes pervasive, so it\u2019s important to stop it as soon as you can.<\/li>\n<li>Mold and mildew growth \u2013 mold and mildew thrive in dark, moist places, which is exactly what the area above your ceiling is. Even a small leak that only drips can cause an outbreak of mold and mildew.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The plumbing experts at Carney Plumbing Heating &amp; Cooling are available around the clock, so if you have a plumbing emergency, call us today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leaks are never a good thing, but it\u2019s the leaks behind your walls that can be some of the most problematic.
