How can I tell if I have a water leak in my house?

FAQ
Most of the time, water leaks are caused by leaky toilets. Place a few drops of blue food coloring in the tank of the toilet, wait a few minutes and then check the bowl. If the water is blue in the bowl, you have a leak. A leaky toilet can waste hundreds of gallons of water per month. This can raise both your water and sewer bills, since sewer bills are based on water usage. For very large water leaks, the culprit may be the water pipes in your yard. See similar questions...
