    Constant dripping noise around our upstairs toilet
    What would cause a constant dripping noise in the wall or floor around our upstairs toilet? - the frequency of the drips increases when liquid is poured into the bowl and when the toilet is flushed. Have been noticing it for a couple of weeks now (have only lived here for a month).

    Appreciate some help - cheers!

    The very fiorst thing I would do is pull the toilet and replace the wax ring. If that didn't get it I'd open up the ceiling and check around for moisture. Let me know what you find. Tom
