Thanks for the advise. Boiler doesn't seem to be losing pressure and have put the C/H as per normal with all radiators on - no leak as of yet. Also checked around all outlets of bathroom furniture, seals, etc - no leak. This may mean it was possibly rainwater as I recall it raining on the day -...

Yes, the boiler is pressured (Baxi Megaflo 2 System Compact GA Range) - gauge shows pressure having been lost. Topped it up. Is this something I should be worried about and linked to this?

Cheers Terryplumb, will try that. Suspected what you mentioned as to pipes still full of water despite valve off but thought worth a shot. Strangely though no leak appeared, but from what you says turning the radiator valves makes no difference. Will hold back on cutting a hole until further...

Did look at the towel rail, bath pipes, sink/basin pipes - no sign of any leaks or water running. Had an idea of seeing if switching off suspect radiator (actually one of two I suspect) that I think the pipe feeding into it is causing the leak. Switched off the towel radiator by turning the...

seems like the consensus is hole in the ceiling so far. Will follow advise as to check other possibilities of the leak from shower, WC. The only radiator in the bathroom is towel radiator and I strongly suspect its the pipework under the tiles that connects to this that is the problem.

I have insurance but unsure if it covers for trace and repair, alternatively I can get my brother to look at it, though he recommends cutting a hole in the ceiling.

I'm no DIY person so unsure if the boiler is pressured. Its a Baxi. Will have to check. I suspect having the boiler fitted downstairs in the garage pumping water all the way upstairs to the bathroom may have put pressure on the pipes (micro pipe to radiator - if thats the right word)

Help! Advice needed as to a leak that is dripping from the upstairs tiled bathroom to the room below. The tiles are expensive and I do not really want to lift these up in the hope of locating the leak given the hassle/expense/likely cracking of tiles. The leak to the ceiling below is at a fairly...
