A small hose can cause a big problem.

This image shows the difference between a damaged braided flexi hose and a new one. Flexi hoses are commonly found under sinks, vanities, toilets, dishwashers, and washing machines. When they split or burst, water can quickly flood cupboards, flooring, cabinetry, and surrounding areas - especially if it happens while no one is home.



We recommend checking flexi hoses every 6 to 12 months for signs of rust, fraying, kinks, bulging, or leaks. As a general guide, they should also be replaced every 3 to 5 years, depending on their condition and location.

A quick inspection now can help prevent costly water damage later.
