leaking roof - panicking

MaggieD · 2009-11-29 10:49:51

Last night I heard a loud dripping in my bedroom and noticed that the architrave leading from the bedroom to the bathroom was dripping in about 4 areas. I'm a single mum with no idea of what to do, it's Sunday so I am assuming I won't be able to call any roofers out (it's my own house, not council). Any advise?

A Home Insurance will not normally cover repairing flashing if it has simply failed due to age / lack of maintainence. It will normally cover the damage the water has done to your home if you have accidental damage cover
