Vacation-Proof Your Home: How to Prevent Water Leaks While You're Away

You’ve packed your bags, set the out-of-office reply, and hit the road — but is your home truly ready for you to be away? The truth is, vacations are prime time for plumbing disasters. Leaks don’t stop just because you're on a beach.

The Hidden Risks of Unattended Homes

  • Frozen Pipes (in winter) can burst in cold climates.
  • Hot Water Heater Failures can spill hundreds of gallons.
  • Appliance Leaks (dishwashers, laundry machines) can cause mold and floor damage.
  • Outdoor Irrigation Failures can leak thousands of gallons without detection.

Your Vacation Plumbing Checklist

  • Shut off water to your washing machine and outdoor hose bibs
