We live in the ground floor of a split Victoria terrace (both flats leasehold). Our ceiling lights stopped working a couple days ago and finally got an electrician round to take a look. One of the light fittings in the hallway had a bit of water on it which had caused the circuit to cut out.
There aren't any widespread signs of water damage (no ceiling stains etc). Electrician said its likely from a leaky pipe opposed to a roof leak as there is so little water. I'm tending to agree with him.
Are the next steps just to get a hold of the guy from upstairs (fairly illusive bloke) and get him to open his floors to look? I'm dammed if I am going to start ripping out our ceilings (unless home insurance pays).
