What should I do about a recurring leak?

The answer

Have the underlying cause assessed by a qualified professional rather than repeatedly treating the visible symptom. Document when it happens, related conditions, and previous work. Consider further-damage prevention and guest readiness through the appropriate response process.

Repeated repair invoices without a resolved cause are a warning that the maintenance plan needs review. Verify the result after relevant conditions recur.

This answer is general education. Apply it to the property's actual location, agreements, and circumstances. Where a decision requires professional advice, use a qualified adviser.
