TWTMC,

When I have the bathtub running,water drips down through the kitchen ceiling.
I have removed the sheetrock to uncover the wood planking. What do I
Do now to detect where the leaks coming from and remedy it. I had also
Flushed the toilet and ran the sink vanity a no of times and their
Was no evidence of the leak originating from those fixtures. Would
Appreciate your help. Thanks so much.

The first thing you must do is pin-point the source of the leak. Is it a drainage leak? Is the trap or drain line wet? Is the water coming through the tile grout and running down the wall? You can't do anything until you find the source. Good luck Tom
