The flashing between my flat roof and the side wall of the house,
which is pebble das, has started to leak. I was thinking of using
flashing tape, how does this adhere to the pebble dash?
Any advice or comments appreciated.

Not terribly well I'd have thought: have you considered chiselling flat the
pebbledash in the area directly under the flashing? Thereis a primer
available for flashing tape, it may be necessary on a dusty surface.
Finally, it might be worth heating up the tape a little to get it to stick
better - bitumen is not very tacky at low temperature.

Flashing tape is only any good on smooth brickwork and even then not
that good. You should use a grinder to cut a channel in the mortar
betweek brick layers and let some decent flashing into said gap (you
can get an L-shaped profile PVC panel that's good for fixing split
flashings). It's then supposed to be pointed up with fresh mortar but I
think bitumen sealant does a better job.

Thank-you for your post. You've answered several questions that have
been running around my brain for a while. :)
