look at my ceiling
well, look what greeted me when i got home...
turns out the radiator above the living room has been leaking for god knows how long. so, when i got back home from work the ceiling had collapsed. lovely eh?
so now i'm covered in slimy, plasterboardy smelly water.... and im working out how to turn the water off too.... lol. have gouged a big hole in the ceiling to let the water out, that's something i suppose...

Re: look at my ceiling
Glad to see that one of the first things you did was to get pictures and tell us

Re: look at my ceiling
i got pictures as evidence to give to the landlord/letting agent in case they try and accuse me of ripping down our own ceiling for no apparent reason...
still havent managed to flush all the water out yet though, damn these old houses

Re: look at my ceiling
If there is enough water and you do call the fire brigade out you will be charged a special service fee.

Re: look at my ceiling
Those pics bring back memories of dodgy student type digs.
Hopefully you can isolate the one radiator and not lose all heating.
