Oh dear . . . it's never simple, is it? I had one plumber looking at my house from the outside, who listed a catalogue of problems: the 'soil' pipe has come loose (I know about this), the second-floor toilet overflow has a periodic (like, one drop every 30 seconds) leak with some plant matter growing around it, the guttering's a bit dodgy and . . . oh, I think that was it. The plumber can only fix one of these, naturally enough. Then another plumber came around, observed the damp wall and gave his prognosis: probably not a pipe leaking (owing to the tiny amount of water coming in), but more likely to be either the tiles over the bay window or else a dodgy plastic fitting between a pipe and the brickwork. Either way, I need various roofing (as oppose to plumbing) issues to be resolved first. Hmmmmm.
