An ounce of prevention is truly worth a pound of cure in this case. It is an extremely good practice to employ a routine inspection of the most common bathroom trouble spots. This will allow you to nip a potential problem in the bud before it has a chance to manifest and turn into real disaster that will be costly to have repaired and cleaned up.<br />
<br />
Be especially vigilant when you are inspecting the toilet area. Contaminated sewage water from leak can not only do physical damage to the surroundings, but can also prevent a very serious health concern. For this reason you need to be extra observant and be sure everything is sealed up tight.<br />
<br />
Check the seals and the tank. Look for any signs of moisture that shouldn't be there. Also feel the floor around the toilet. If the floor feels soft or spongy it may be a sign that water has got beneath the flooring and has weakened it.<br />
<br />
Inspect the bathtub and shower. This area takes in a great amount of water so it needs to be in tip top shape. If water is getting out of the contained area then a disaster is just waiting to happen.<br />
<br />
Check the caulking around the tub for spots where it has come away and water could get into. Fix these. Next inspect the tiles and replace any that are missing or cracked. Repair any imperfections in the grout between the tiles too.<br />
<br />
Finish it off with a detail inspection of your sink. Look under the counter where the plumbing is often hidden for signs of moisture or stains in the cabinet. Don't let this area suffer from "out of site out of mind" neglect.<br />
<br />
You will thank yourself later if you take the time to maintain this routine inspection. Repair bills from water damage in the bathroom can be extreme. You don't want to wait until things are out of hand when you could have prevented them to begin with.</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />
