Fix a Leak Week 2026: Spring Into Action and Save Water at Home and in Your Lawn

March 01, 2026

What is Fix a Leak Week?

Fix a Leak Week, held annually by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and their WaterSense program, is a week dedicated to raising awareness about the significant amount of water wasted due to household and outdoor leaks. Each year, the event encourages homeowners to inspect their plumbing systems and fixtures for leaks and to take action to repair them. This is especially timely in the spring, as many homeowners begin to spend more time outdoors and prepare their homes for the warmer months ahead.
