Hi,
I've just bought a new house and during the storms of the last few days have discovered I have a leak in the garage roof. It appears to be coming in through the seal around the extractor vent. I've attached a picture.
I have extremely basic diy skills so am just looking to find out if this is something I can fix or whether I should get a roofer. A search online has brought up various options for caulk/sealant. I'm not sure if this would be enough given the size of gaps under the flashing. Also would this just be a quick fix or would it last?
Lastly, will the garage roof take my weight? The pipe is quite close to the edge so I would only be at that end.
Thanks
Ashlie
