Answer 1

It apparently isn't a bad leak or you would be flooded.  Check around the bath fixtures and under the sink and commode.

Answer 2

Your toilet or bath tub could be leaking and running down the wall and dripping from the ceiling..

Answer 3

There could be a leak somewhere in the piping system of the bathroom. If you have another bathroom to use, temporarily  do not use that bathroom to check the leaks. The pipes of water leading to the bathroom may have a gate valve to be shut off. In this way you prevent the leak from continuing. When the leaking at the ceiling stops and have  dried up, do an experimentation. Pour two pails of full water at the bathroom's flooring, if it leaks the problem is on the drainage of the bathroom, there could be a leak. If there is none, let it dry again and without using the bathroom, open the gate valve, if the leak starts, its in the water piping leading to the bathroom, you will have to trace the leaking pipe and replace it.

Answer 4

you need to call a plumber to fix the leak....they will find where it is coming from. It is possible to turn the water off in you bathroom so it will stop leaking until you are able to get a plumber there.

Answer 5
