We take a look at a Sedgley pensioners bungalow complete with bags on the ceiling to catch the water leaking in. She says its been months and the problem is still not fixed. <br />Dudley Council said: Councillor Ian Bevan, cabinet member for housing and communities, said: “A leak in the roof of this property was first brought to our attention in March this year. Since then, a number of attempts to locate and rectify the leak have failed. <br />“Two weeks ago our workmen found the source of the leak, and a repair was undertaken. <br />“This repair is a temporary measure, and we are continuing to monitor it while we put together a more permanent solution which will work in conjunction with the current roof covering at the property. <br />“The tenant has been kept updated throughout, and we had officers at the property last week assessing the current situation. We are working hard on a permanent solution which will bring this matter to a close for the tenant.” <br />
