Bathroom Ceiling Stains Below Upstairs Tub
A stain on the ceiling under an upstairs tub is a strong sign that water is getting past the floor.

The area is cleaned, and photos and readings are organized for your insurance claim.
What Causes Bathtub Overflows in Baldwin
Faulty or Over-Pressurized Plumbing
High water pressure or a failing valve can make faucets run harder or fail to shut off fully.
Failed Bathtub or Shower Sealant
Worn caulk between the tub and wall lets water run behind the tub surround.
Accidental Filling With Drain Closed
Filling the tub with the drain closed and stepping away is one of the most common overflow causes.
Malfunctioning Overflow Drain Cover
A blocked or leaking overflow drain lets water escape behind the tub instead of draining away.
