Southern Utah Puddle in Bathroom

Have you ever discovered a mystery puddle in the middle of your bathroom floor in your southern Utah home yet can’t find a leaky toilet or sink where it might’ve come from? If so then it may be time to bring in the professionals. Mystery puddles in bathrooms or any other room that have piping going to it or around/under it are at risk of water leakage. This water can come from simple broken valves and rings on sinks and toilets or from more severe broken pipes in surrounding walls or flooring. It may be hard to decide where the source of the leaking water is. The best way to determine where the puddle is coming from is to remove all evidence of water then lay newspaper on the entire bathroom floor. Although when you return, the newspaper may be dry in most spots, if there was a stream of water at some point, it will be have evidence of being wet such as running ink or wrinkly pages and this can show you the trail of water that leads to those mystery puddles. If the puddle comes from a wall without a sink or toilet, or forms completely on its own in the middle of the bathroom floor then piping may be your problem.
