If you have to pick just one category never to delay, it’s anything involving water leaks. A small leak under a sink, behind a toilet, near a geyser, on the roof, or around a window might look harmless, but water quietly destroys things over time. It rots wood, swells furniture, ruins paint, creates mould, and can even damage electrical points.
People often think, “Chhota sa leak hai, baad me dekh lenge.” But that drip can become a bigger problem that costs ten times more. A damp patch on the wall, a musty smell, a slightly soft area on the floor – these are early warnings. Fixing them early usually means small repairs. Ignoring them can mean replacing portions of wall, flooring, or roofing later.So yes, cleaning, painting, servicing are important, but water entry is the real villain. If you see signs of moisture where it shouldn’t be, treat it as urgent, not optional.
