    What does it mean when upstairs tub and toilet leak from light fixture downstairs
    One day when the upstairs bath tub was running, water came leaking from a downstairs ceiling light. Two days later when both the sink and toilet were used, water started dripping from the same ceiling light. What can possibly cause this type of problem?

    A leak in the plumbing, either supply or drain, I would guess drain.
