- Bathroom leaks into ceilings — see ceiling water damage.

Where leaks hide in Maghull homes
| Property type | Where leaks tend to hide | What helps |
|---|---|---|
| Post-war semi or detached | Heating pipes under floors; bathroom above kitchen | Thermal imaging; dye testing |
| Bungalow | Loft pipework and tanks | Winter checks and lagging |
| New estate home | Push-fit joints, en-suite trays, appliances | Pressure testing; moisture mapping |
A dishwasher or washing machine leak can run under the kitchen units for days before you notice it. If your kitchen smells musty or the plinths look swollen at the bottom, pull the appliance out and check the hoses and the floor beneath.
