Talking of roofs and chimneys, this spell of rain has caused damp patches to appear on the chimney breast in my kitchen.
My first guess was that the chimney hasn't been capped properly and rain is getting in. Does this sound like a realistic possibility? If so, how to fix it?
Definitely a possibility. Not the only one though. It could be that the pointing is shot if it's a brick chimney, or the flashing has deteriorated and is leaking.
