[QUOTE="edd_tv, post: 321420, member: 8098"] i would def check that out.if you dont feel comfortable doing it yourself have a home inspector or contractor take a look. with a bathroom being a high humidity enviroment there may be mold of other funky stuff going down.also you may have a problem farther away. ive seen rafters, pipes, joists have a funny way of channeling water away from the original source. my apt i had in college was like that. the bathtub leaked around the sides. every time i showered my downstairs neighbor got water in her closet(no pun) turns out it had been doing that for some time with the previous tenant. when the landlord had it fixed, rot and mold had set in on almost every part of that bathroom. it was amazing to see how the water had followed the studs and pipes and joists. my "water closet" was prolly 10 feet to the left of where her actual closet was. the water had followed a drainpipe on the outside then seaped into the studs and flooring. it was a mess. lots of damage. so long story short and not to scare you i would def check into it at least. you know the ole addage, an ounce of prevention.... Good Luck!!!!! let us know what happens [/QUOTE]
