Heard of internal pipe corrosion?

Pipe corrosion can cause water damage.

Internal pipe corrosion can be an underlying cause of water damage. Once the metal pipes erode over time, their capacity to hold water may lessen. Depending on whether the loss of strength is general or at a certain area, this can eventually cause the pipes to burst, rupture, or leak and lead to a water damage. 

Ensure that you are regularly maintaining the structure's pipes and that your company is following state regulations, which includes inspection compliance, so that you will be notified of any potential pipe corrosion.
