When you enter your bedroom and see a bubble under the paint on your wall you might scratch your head and think to yourself, "hmm." When your curiosity gets the best of you and you ever so tenderly take your fingernail and poke at the bubble only to have it burst and leak freezing cold water in streams down the wall, it's a bit startling.

| Oh dear. |
I assumed we had a leaky pipe somewhere but as it turned out, we have a crappy builder. Or maybe this is commonplace, but I doubt it. Hadn't I mentioned before that we don't do commonplace in this house?
As it turns out, in our attic crawlspace, we have piles of snow. It could only have come in from under the roof ridge vent.

| Not what you want to see in your attic. |
As it melted, it ran down the walls and pooled under the paint, effectively ruining the entire wall and part of the ceiling and hopefully didn't cause too much interior damage.

| Corner of the ceiling |
Sigh...
time to dig out the roof warranty papers and hope this will be covered.
