Who do I call for a leak in my ceiling?

I have two large patches of damp appeared on my bedroom ceiling on opposite sides of the room. One is on the side of the end wall (end of terrace) and the other is on the side of the neighbour's house, where the two roofs adjoin. Both are high up at the edge of the ceiling. There is a loft room above but I can find no sign of the boiler leaking or any damp. I can't see any loose or missing tiles on the roof above the room, so I'm a bit at a loss. Should I call a plumber or should I call a roofer? Doe anyone have any recommendations? I'd be very grateful! Thanks, Lise

If the wet patches have suddenly appeared because of the bad weather (heavy rain ) then I would call a roofer , you could have a problem with the lead on the roof ,or the lead soakers could be faulty , if the ceiling is dripping constantly then you need a plumber ,hope this helps , I could have a look for you , but I'm more a plasterer/ damp proofer ,

Regards

Dave

    • I must say Dulwich is the worse borough I’ve seen for dog mess. Literally everywhere I step it’s dog poo! There is a lot of children/kids in this area god forbid they fell in it. Fix up dog owners!! 
    • I can’t recommend Niko highly enough. Not only did he solve a problem that was puzzling others, but he started with the least disruptive and least expensive option which worked. He is also a delight to have in the house. 07818607583
    • I have been training with the brilliant personal trainer Fox (yes, that is his real name) for over 3 months now. I can't speak highly enough about Fox, Gok and their team. I was desperately unfit and now I am in danger of turning into a gym junkie! If you are considering joining a gym/class or getting a personal trainer then I would 100% recommend Gokay Fitness.
