Edge of sloping roof dripping

Graham81 · 19 Feb 2011

Dear All

Can anyone suggest how I can prevent this small section of the roofing from dripping when it rains. It is too tight to get even small guttering in; maybe a pieve of shaped flashing?

Thanks

elbow joint

Thanks for the reply. Will an elbow work as the water seems to cling to & run down the black fascia?

Thanks

Yes it will. You'll prob find it's coming off the tile and onto the timber. A little bead of clear silicone to the edge of the tile to create a 'drip' for the water to fall off it should help. Or you can go the whole hog and put a discreet strip of flashband off the top of the gutter onto the timber.
