Leak in pipes

[sunset-summer]

Argh!! Removed a radiator for decorating and now have a leak somewhere along the pipe under the floorboard

I have turned off all the water and shut off the boiler. As far as I can see it's a small run ( can see where it's wet in the ceiling below) what can I be expected to pay for repair and I have ensured the right thing to stop further leaking?

Are you sure it’s not dribbling out of one of the valves and running down the pipe?

What sort of system do you have, is it gravity (with a header tank in the loft) or pressurised?

Tank in the loft... however the F&E tank is empty, bit of an odd one to me, Cold water gravity, Hot water tank in airing cupboard with a Ideal System boiler

Yes have checked, definitely under the floor

You might want to shut off both ends of all the upstairs rads in case it empties them.

Incase what empties them.. sorry not focused too worried.

Edited to add I can hear the dripping.. wondering if I should make a hole in the ceiling so the water doesn't spread
