2. You hear some continuous dripping noises.

If your sinks, showers, or bath taps echo dripping noises, there may be a problem with your water pressure. There also could be drainage issues or broken assets on the utility. Whatever the case, best have a plumber come to look at it - significant issues could be in store if the problem is not fixed!

3. There's the low water pressure in your home's utilities.
