Bay Window Flashing Question

My building inspector commented on the flashing between the roof of this bay window and the wall of the house. There is no known interior leaking, but the house is only 1.5 years ago. My questions to the experts..

1. Is this a reasonable flashing for this area?
2. If not, what would a proper repair entail?

Thank you for your insights

Hi welcome to the forum.

It looks to me as though the flashing is missing.

The images seem to show the flat roof membrane being returned up the house wall, but no lead flashing cut into the house wall and dressed down over.

Im guessing the house has cavity walls, in which case there would usually be a lintel and or cavity tray and the flashing would be just below the weep holes

But bear in mind, Im from the UK so building practices maybe totally different.

Lovely house by the way, I wish new houses in the UK were as attractive.

Hi Notch7,

Thank you for the welcome and the kind words about the house. Your response was very helpful.

The house is indeed on the other side of the Atlantic but you are correct in that it has cavity walls (at least I believe I am using the term appropriately - it has frame walls with a stone exterior).

In terms of retrofitting this already built wall, is it safe to say most would recommend making a cut into the stone or joint between stones to install a lintel/flashing vs. installing a cavity tray (which I assume would be too difficult at this juncture?)

Thank you

Yeah all I'd be doing is chasing in and putting cover flashing on. In all 4 pics there is what looks like a mortar defect but might be the weep vents mentioned (so trays may already be in). The block joints aren't doing you many favours- pics 9 and 11 (think they're the same defect) the joint looks about the right height to chase, in pics 10 and 12 the joint looks a bit low (you want about 100mm drop from the chase to the roof)

9 and 10 look bad..... even without a cover apron
