Here are some examples of new technology that will make your life much safer and easier.
Less invasive pipe repairs
Replacing pipes has customarily been difficult and very expensive. If the leakage was found behind a wall or a foundation slab, the only answer would be to remove the old pipes and replace them with new once. Today plumbers solve most of these problems with modern technology; the pipes are repaired in place. In a process with multiple steps, they use abrasive blasting to clean the inside of the pipes. After that they use epoxy resin to coat the interior of the pipes this seals and stops the leak.
Another modern technology lets you actually replace the pipes beneath the concrete in a house without having to dig up the floor. A well trained and experience plumber uses entrenched technology and gears to produce a tunnel at the exact position where the pipes have to go. This method is cheaper and it is much convenient and safer than the older methods.

Today for rapid detection of water damage, an electronic flooding detector system can be put in these peculiar locations. If there were to be a malfunction of one equipment and water goes on the floor this device will detect it, it stops the supply of water to that particular area.
It is not necessary that you install these devices all over the house. If you can identify the areas of the house with very high risk and install there then that will be fine.
