HELP - Leaking Roof
On Tuesday, July 4, 2000 8:00:00 AM UTC+1, wrote:
My roof has been leaking for a short while and have finally got around to locating the source. Having run a few "hosepipe tests", it looks as though it is leaking where 2 pieces of lead flashing meet. In summary, we have an extension onto the back of the house such that the roof runs perpendicular to the house roof. Therefore, the slope of the roof runs the other way - if you see what I mean! The lead flasshing valley that runs along the joint of the 2 roofs and the one that runs down the main roof along the gable end are both fine. The trouble where the 2 meet. What is the best way of sealing it? Also, whilst I am sealing this, I thought I might as well add some sealant where the lead flashing meets the roof tiles. Is this a good idea. Any help, product knowledge etc. will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for you help Lee. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy. |
