We were called to a residential property in Birkirkara after water from an upper bathroom started affecting the bathroom level below.
The team used thermal imaging and acoustic listening to check the upper bathroom envelope without immediately opening the floor or bath area.
What the inspection checked
Each bathroom outlet was checked systematically so the team could reduce the number of likely sources. The strongest evidence pointed toward the area beneath the bath enclosure, where acoustic signals and thermal patterns suggested a pressurised leak.
The water was tracking through the floor structure and affecting the ceiling finishes below.
What the client was advised
The client was advised to isolate the water supply feeding the bath circuit and engage a contractor for targeted access and repair.
Why this matters
When a ceiling below a bathroom is affected, the leak may be under a bath, shower, vanity, toilet, drain route or pipe chase. The correct repair depends on the source.
If this is happening in your property, book a ceiling leak from upstairs inspection before opening the wrong area.
