Leak coming through ceiling where extension meets house

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.43 PM

We moved into our house 2 1/2 years ago and about a year ago noticed a leak coming through the kitchen ceiling. The kitchen has been extended (before we moved in) and the leak appeared where the new extension meets the old part of the house. The leak seemed to clear up for several months but has started up again in the last month - and has now extended to above the patio doors in the adjoining room (but which is still part of the same wall where the leak is). In the last hour the leak has progressed to coming through the light fitting in the extension! Is this a problem with the original building work done when the extension was built? Is it easy to resolve? And who would be best to contact to fix this? How desperate/serious is this? Thanks!
