What causes ceiling to leak?

Ceilings can leak due to several factors, with the most common being water damage from above, such as roof leaks, Plumbing issues, or condensation. Damaged or missing shingles, clogged gutters, or faulty flashing can allow rainwater to seep in. Additionally, leaking pipes or appliances in upper floors can lead to water pooling and ultimately cause ceiling leaks. Over time, these leaks can weaken the ceiling structure and lead to mold growth if not addressed promptly.
