Water leak in any property can have a have a long lasting effect and some unforeseen consequences. In this particulate case a substantial mould contamination to the part of the property was triggered by relatively small water leak to a modern boiler situated in the loft of a small bungalow. The leak has caused saturation of ceiling plasterboard with water and progressed through the block walls below. The occupants become gradually aware that something is wrong when patches of mould started to appear on previously non-problem surfaces and generally indoor air quality started to degrade.
