leaking bay window canopy

[Rybka]

Hi All,

I am looking for some advice.

I have a bay window ( covered with lead externally) that is leaking inside (only along the window line).
I have been out in the rain and I can't find the source...

Do you have any ideas what the possible reasons might be for the leak?

In addition, do I contact a roofer or a window chap to check it professionally?

Will be thankful for any advice/suggestions.

is it leaking down the sides of the window or above? any pics?

Thank you for your replay s60tsy.

The leak is above the window...the water comes via the thin crack above the window ... Hopefully (the crack) can be seen on the three pics.

Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Nothing obvious from the pics.
There are some gaps in the sealant to the right that could do with resealing but most likely not causing the problem you describe.

Can you show some pics of the roof?

I have checked the bay window canopy and it looks fine (no cracks ect.).
I was outside in the rain last night checking the bay window canopy.

So I am thinking maybe it is to do with the bigger roof (when it connects with the bay window canopy).. but I can't see anything wrong... So I am puzzled about the leak.

I have to say that it leaks when the rain is very heavy.

Again, any comments/suggestions would be welcome.
