I am getting my house ready for sale and thinking that it's all done but suddenly a bathroom room light starts dripping. Who should I call first? Roofer? Plumber? Electrician? Handyman? Contractor?
If there is no plumbing and a roof is more or less directly above: roofer. If there is a bathroom above that has been used recently and may be the causelumber. Don't turn the light on if it is wet.
u probly got a pipe leaking above the ceiling. turn off electric and get a electriction and inspector. a plumber might not fix it if its not a pipe issue and turns out to be a roofing problem. that sucks though.
Water will travel. I once had a leaking fixture and tracked it to a leak twenty feet away where the water simply traveled down a wire to the fixture.
This. Been there, done that, hated it.
Found a leak on one side of my wall was traced to faulty flashing on an exhaust pipe on the other side of the house (same side of the roof).
If you have access above start tracing the water. And tracing..and tracing..
