Water Leak in Ceiling: What to Do and Who to Call
Water leak in ceiling? See the first steps to take and when to call CDS Service Co, available 24/7.
What Causes Water Leak in Ceiling?
Understanding water leak in ceiling helps homeowners in Tampa Bay make informed decisions about when to call a plumber.
Warning Signs
- A wet or discolored spot spreading across the ceiling
- Sagging or bubbling drywall
- Dripping water even when no fixtures are running
- A musty smell in the room below a bathroom or kitchen
- Peeling paint or ceiling texture
When to Call a Plumber
Call a plumber as soon as you notice the stain -- ceiling leaks usually mean an active leak in a pipe or fixture above, and delaying only lets the damage spread.
What To Do Right Now
- Place a container under the leak and protect furniture or flooring below
- Avoid touching a sagging or bulging ceiling section
- Call CDS Service Co at (813) 590-7499
- Try to identify what's directly above the stain (bathroom, kitchen, roof)

This was to be my 5 th estimate for a septic repair. The two gentlemen that arrived were on time, personable, knowledgeable and super helpful. They determined that I only needed a ‘ replacement float’!!! Estimates were much lower than other companies. Quality remained! It has been a difficult few years for everyone, I’m certain. This team was so wonderful!!! I am very grateful and thankful that I found this honest , trustworthy company. Rainbows!!! Had this company come out again as my septic field needed replacing after 30 years . Jordon, Justin, Matthew and Zay did an amazing job.. I like to watch and learn. Everything was explained to me..the job was completed in time specified. They have a guarantee for parts and labor. I needed help with my kitchen sink and Jorden even went to hardware store to find appropriate parts. I felt like I had my kids here. Smart , they know their business, caring, timely… What more could you ask for?

We’ve been working with CDS Plumbing in Tampa for a full home re-pipe and water line replacement, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. Justin has been incredibly patient and professional throughout what turned into a long, drawn-out project. The communication has been excellent — we were always informed when the team was arriving or if there were any changes to the plan. Pricing was completely transparent from the start, and any issues that came up were handled quickly and professionally. They also worked seamlessly with our other contractors, which made the whole process much smoother. It’s rare to find a contractor with this level of communication, accountability, and professionalism.

Justin and his crew. Very nice and professional. I needed my issue resolved like yesterday. He had Tyler come out. He is great and fixed my problem efficiently and effective. Which is the most important when it comes to a water leak. Nothing but positive comments about CDS Plumbing!

Josh, Jordan, and Jessie worked very effectively and efficiently on my house installing a whole new plumbing system with new water heater and well tank in one day. They communicated the whole time and were flexible knowing I was at work for much of the project.
