Leaky Chimney in the Van Gogh Room
Back in September, there was a burst of really heavy rain in a pretty intense storm, and it's one of those occasions where the wind blew just right and the amount of precipitation was sufficient, and it exposed a pretty healthy leak around the chimney flashing on the north side of the house.
That left quite a trail of water coming down from the ceiling above and in front of the fireplace in that guest room. I had previously noticed a good bit of daylight around the chimney on the south side of the house, and it's on my list for the general contractor, who seems to have forgotten that he left a number of things undone.
