So, turns out both the little roof ledge AND the windows are leaking. While the roof ledge is a bigger problem, because it’s leaking like a madman, and ruining the drywall, it’s actually much easier to fix, because it’s pretty clear where the leak is coming from. At least, I think it is. The bigger problem is actually that the windows which were leaking last year are leaking again. This is potentially a HUGE problem, because it would mean essentially that the whole front of the house is leaking, and that the windows are going to be impossible to seal, and that the whole front of the house will have to be torn off and rebuilt. Again. You want to talk pain in the ass, there you have it. So, the problem is that though the contractor for the roof issue is a major flake, and getting him to do anything is going to be a royal pain, the friendlier contractors are going to have a hell of a job sealing the house up, which they guaranteed they’d do (though that should have been done by pain-in-the-ass contractor properly in the first place.

*sigh*

I can’t say I’m not pretty worried. I am pretty worried. This has the potential to be a pretty serious mess.
