Leaky Bathroom Roof

Posted on | July 28, 2008 | Comments Off

We got to Marblehead late Thursday night. As we turn down the corner to the house I think both of expected that the house could have burned down. “Someone would have called us, right?” The house was standing to our relief. I ran inside to the second floor bathroom and tried to turn on the overhead light. I pulled the cord once. Nothing. And then a second and third time and I got small sparks. I shouted to Greg to come and check it out. Greg came upstairs and tried and he yelled, “We’ve got sparks!” I screamed back “No shit, I told you that already.” (You can feel the love?)

After a little investigating we realized the light was full of water. Thanks god we didn’t get electrocuted! Seems the floor above the bathroom was filled with water because of leaky roof and the water slowly leaked down into the light. Aah the fun! The image above is our leaky bathroom. The image below is a view from outside the house. The second smaller bump out on the back of the house is where all the bathrooms are. The roof at the top is our demon.
