Our house has been hammered by the recent storms but the worst appears to be roof damage and rain water is pouring in, down the walls and has taken the kitchen ceiling off.
Would the best plan of action be to remove all the plaster from the bedroom (above the kitchen) walls and ceiling? Half the ceiling fell down anyway and it is heavy old stuff from the 1930s.
How to dry the place out? There is no electricity but there is a tiny fire in the bedroom (which has never been lit for years).
I want to lie on the floor and howl but that won't get things done. Please could you help me work to a plan. The good news is that I have two Hippo bag skips.
I don't want to drip feed but we are not living in our home because of the damage but are spending time during the day trying to fix it/ dry it out.
Thank you.
