Leak!

Almost a shame you can't "back post", because that would be useful - I need to keep a diary for insurance puposes, but anyway, the sooner I get started the sooner all the info is down "on paper" for me to refer back on.

Back on the 1st May this year we had a pretty major leak in our roof above the kitchen (kitchen extension), this was a bank holiday weekend and it poured down on the Sunday if I recall rightly. Kat came into the kitchen and you could hear the water dripping down somewhere. We quickly realised it was coming from the kitchen unit near the window, as it was dripping into a fruit bowl. The whole worktop was covered and as we opened the wall cupboard door, the whole cupboard was just covered in water (still dripping).

It didn't take long to realise that the ceiling was bowing, so I climbed up on the worktop and punched some holes in the ceiling. At this point, the water just gushed out.

Over the next few weeks, every time is rained it filled out bowl strategically placed under the ceiling (atop the wall unit).
