Hi,

After all the rain yesterday it appears as though some water has made it's way in to the attic of my mums house - she arrived home from work today and the a portion ceiling in the box room is heavily laden down with water.

Not too sure whether there may be burst pipe in the attic or this is simply down to the rain and maybe there is a entry point from the roof - maybe a borken tile or something.

Has anybody else ever experienced this and if so what could be the possible causes.

At the moment what she needs is for somebody to take a look but is unsure of who exactly to call - anybody got any ideas?

She lives in the Blanchardstown area.

Please help !

Thanks.

Sounds like it's the result of rain, First thing I would do is punch a small hole in the ceiling to take the pressure off. Left alone for a short while the ceiling may collapse.
