Dripping overflow on Block of flats
Is it normal for a block of flats to have just one overflow ? Affinity water have been called out because the overflow is dripping and by the mess of the wall it’s been leaking for some time. Water company have said it’s my flat that’s leaking due to my excessively high water usage. I live alone and in Oct I was usually 477 litres a day which is very high considering I’m out all day. However since Oct I’m now usually approximately 1200 litres a day which is crazy. Hence water company saying the leak is mine. I’m struggling to understand how it’s possible to use this much water and why there is only one overflow for a block flats. Any advise /help would be greatly appreciated.

Loft Header Tank
Hi, My small loft header tank in the loft is overflowing when the hot water/heating is switched on. It’s fine when the heating/water are off, but starts up again when it comes on again. It started with a few drips a few weeks ago to a slow flow now, which lasts for about 10-15 minutes when the heating/water initially comes on and then stops dripping again. Any ideas?
