Leaks above ceilings

Ceiling Water Damage: What to Do Next

A water stain can be minor, but a wet, bulging, or sagging ceiling can indicate a larger amount of water above the visible surface. Keep people away from an unstable ceiling and address the leak source before cosmetic repairs.

Possible sources

Ceiling water damage can come from plumbing lines, bathrooms, HVAC-related drainage, roof leaks, appliances on an upper floor, or other sources. If the source is roofing, see roof-leak water damage. If it is a plumbing failure, see burst pipe water damage.

Do not repair too early

Painting over a stain does not address trapped moisture. Wet ceiling materials and adjacent framing may need drying or removal before repair. See structural drying.
