How Can I Find a Water Leak Inside a Wall or Ceiling?

Look for damp spots, bubbling paint, musty odors, or ceiling stains, then confirm a hidden leak by checking your water meter with all fixtures off. If usage rises, you likely have a wall or ceiling leak.

Quick checks:

  • Inspect ceilings under bathrooms and around showers, tubs, and toilets.
  • Run one fixture at a time and watch for fresh drips below.
  • Listen for hissing or dripping at night.
  • Turn off the main valve if water is spreading.
