Upstairs Sink Leak Ceiling Cleanup Questions in Central

Yes. A drip can wet the cabinet and pass through the floor around plumbing penetrations. Repeated wetting may spread beyond the first ceiling mark. The crew measures that path instead of judging it by the puddle size.

A hidden recess may keep draining after the visible cabinet floor is wiped. The plumber also checks whether the fixture still leaks. The extraction specialist reaches remaining pooled water before drying begins.
