Posted on by JimLouis
Here’s why smart homeowners call Cass Plumbing—before hard water starts costing real money. Tampa is a water city. We live by the Bay, we water lawns, we wash cars, we shower twice a day in the heat—and we expect our plumbing to quietly keep up.

Tampa’s Sneakiest Plumbing Problem: Hidden Leaks That Quietly Wreck Homes

Posted on by JimLouis
In the Tampa Bay area, plumbing problems don’t always announce themselves with a dramatic burst pipe. More often, the damage starts quietly—behind a wall, under a slab, or inside a ceiling—while your home keeps running like everything’s fine. Hidden leaks are one of the most expensive “slow-motion” plumbing issues in Florida. They can trigger mold growth in our humid climate, warp flooring, weaken drywall, inflate your water bill, and even cause foundation problems if the leak is under the slab. If you suspect a leak (or you’re not sure, but something feels off), this is exactly the kind...
