Yes, clogged pipes can cause leaks. But you should know that it isn’t as straight forward as it seems. Let me clarify can clogged pipes cause leaks for you with my answer. I have been there and clogged pipes in my house did damage a lot of things for us.

Can a Clogged Pipe Cause a Leak?

As I said, yes, it does. Here are a few things I have learnt from my experience. Although there is no direct impact, these are some things that transpire:

  1. When pipes are clogged, water pressure in the pipes tends to increase. This can put stress on joints, connections, and weak points in the plumbing system resulting in slow but steady development of leaks.

  2. If the pipes are clogged for too long, it can lead to pipe corrosion which can eventually

    lead to leaks.

  3. Overflow in pipes can lead to pooling around fixtures or appliances. If it is prolonged, it can damage walls pipes and floors which will result in leakage

These are a few ways in which clogged sink causing leaks is possible. If you have blockages and clogged pipes, I would recommend you get that fixed ASAP or else you’ll end up damaging a lot of stuff and of course your house structure.
