Fittings and fixture seals can fail even when the ceiling looks sound.
Some bathroom leaks follow winter weather; others come from worn seals. The crew bases cleanup on water category and materials, not season. Many residents own their homes in the covered ZIP codes. A homeowner should photograph the upstairs source and lower ceiling before cleanup changes the scene.
