Broken Pipes in a Bathroom Wall in a Home in Horseshoe Bay

4/19/2019 (Permalink)

This leak in the wall had been going on for so long the wall studs and sill plates rotted.

SERVPRO of Marble Falls / Lampasas received a call from a homeowner in Horseshoe Bay referred to us by a local plumber regarding a water leak in a walk in shower. The problem turned out to be a slow leak in a pipe in the bathroom. When the pipe burst, the homeowner could hear the water spraying in the walls, and he gave SERVPRO of Marble Falls / Lampasas a call. 

A moisture check was performed; elevated moisture levels in the exterior walls of the bathroom were detected. 

Our technicians removed multiple interior walls and part of the exterior stucco wall behind to the walk in, tiled shower. Upon opening up the walls, multiple leaks were found.  All three different areas had been leaking over time much to the surprise of the homeowners.
