It is always during the big game, at 2 a.m. on a Tuesday, or five minutes before your in-laws arrive for a weekend visit. You know that sinking feeling you get when you spot a puddle on the floor and realize it is not because someone spilled their water bottle.

In the average American home, it's the second largest energy user, accounting for nearly 18% of your utility bill.

But because it's often tucked away in a basement or utility closet, it's easy to ignore until it stops working or your energy bills start climbing inexplicably. - [Water Damage Assessment: How Professionals Evaluate Your Columbia Property](https://brianwearplumbing.com/water-damage-assessment-how-pros-evaluate-your-home/): When water invades your home, the immediate visible damage is often just the tip of the iceberg.
