When you see a drip and it is continuous and does not stop, then you need to shut off the main water valve to the house right away to prevent major water damage to your floors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">Once it has been determined that it is a damaged waterline (the leak will stop after you\u2019ve turned off the water), you will need to open ceilings or walls to determine which area the leak is exactly coming from. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">If you notice the leak to be sporadic, then it\u2019s important to determine if it is happening when you bathe, shower, or flush the toilet. We have found over the years of leak detection experience and diagnostic work, that running a few simple, but important water tests will inform you of the cause of the leak. You can always reach out to Red Cap Plumbing to handle your ceiling leak for you.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Drains<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Run water ONLY through the drains, one at a time. If there is a crack somewhere you will determine that pretty quickly. Cracked sewer lines can have cracks as thin as a hair, so it\u2019s important to have an understanding how aggressive the leak is, depending on how much water is leaking. This will determine on how much water to run. You do not want to flood your own house by running a water test. It\u2019s best to start with a little water and increase from there as needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\"><strong>Shower arm<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.redcapplumbing.com\/tampa_plumber\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/ceiling-leak1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-297 alignright\" alt=\"ceiling leak\" src=\"http:\/\/www.redcapplumbing.com\/tampa_plumber\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/ceiling-leak1-300x224.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">The shower arm is the pipe that your shower head screws onto, sometimes the threads inside the wall get loose and cause leaks inside the wall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\"><strong>Tile and Grout<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Make sure that the tile is in overall good shape, this can fail along with caulking around the tub or shower. We have seen it over and over again here at Red Cap, where a simple grout job would have taken care of the leak. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">It\u2019s really important to maintain and be aware of all your plumbing fixtures, especially upstairs.
