hi all, my kitchen ceiling is stained yellow from the leaks in the bathrom, there is a big wet patch which looks like it is directly under the bath, then another directly under the toilet and the again with the sink. i have re siliconed the outlines and still is happening i had a plumber in to look at it and he just said get your husband totake up the floorboads and find the leak, i have had the bath panel off but everthing is bone dry. any advice please, many thanks jules09
Do the waste pipes go under the floorboards ? leak from waste ?
Also worth check for cracks in the bottom of the toilet bowl.
The plumber is right though - either lift floor boards or cut out a section of plasterboard from the kitchen ceiling to find the leak. There's no other way.
