Hi, I have just noticed a leak under my roof hatch. I had some great advice previously for some guttering issues, where just regular maintenance and removing the guards helped out a lot.
I had a look on the roof around the hatch, and looks like the leak is coming from the flashing as far as I can tell.
There looks like some previous sealant which looks real old.
I’m kindly asking for some advice on how to fix and what sealant to use.
Can I just temporarily fix it with some roof repair sealant? Or get in a roofer to replace the flashing?
Does it matter terribly in the type of sealant? Should I be using acrypol and scrim? Or liquid rubber? Or black jack sealant?
Also, do I try to sea the edges of the roof hatch or just the flashing join.
Thanks in advance for any help...
