Thanks for that, yes carpet is eventually getting laid.

Short wider shot vid here, sorry about the quality but it gives you the idea. https://vid.me/O9Fu

Hi, thanks for the reply. That did cross my mind funnily enough. I also thought maybe I could take a bit off the floor boards possibly easier than the scribing the bottom off.

Help please. Looking to replace all the skirting in a bedroom but come across this issue. I was going to scribe it using a coping saw but it will look awful against the adjoining wall due to the floor being out. [/IMG] Any ideas?

Ok, thanks again big all.

I just had a brain wave or maybe not! thoughts. In order to raise the floor level to the same as the dpc in the walls could I use a layer of bricks instead of concrete? Or is that such a stupid idea!

Thanks big all. It did cross my mind that this could be the problem as the brickwork above the dpm is dry where below the bricks it is wet (as in colour change in pics) I'll look into tanking it but not sure about laying a concrete layer as the Garage spans over 5m by 2.5, probably beyond my...

Hi Crystalclear, I honestly don't know! Garage backs on to someones back Garden and the Garage next to mine on one side has no Roof whatsoever so all manner of things are growing in there!

Hi guys I am looking to get to the bottom as why my Garage is getting flooded - well an inch of water or so everytime it rains. Garage is brick with a recently put on steel box profile Roof which I am certain is watertight. Does anyone know If it can come through the floor/wall section where...

I am not sure, will take some getting used to.

Yep, got ya Ken. I'll make sure I go onto her side stopping short off re roofing hers!!

Cheers Ken. Neighbour as I say is not one bit interested in her Garage - she hasn't set foot in it since god knows when, it has rotting junk in there like a sofa etc. I am going to go down the board with felt route I think making sure it covers the wall.

Cheers honda, that did flash through my mind too although not sure how I'd attach it to my steel Roof - maybe lift it a little and slide it under perhaps. I just want the easiest most cost effective way to stop my Garage getting wet really.

Update. It looks like it is indeed leaking from where I thought it was - adjoining Garage wall where I placed bricks in first pic. I just took these whilst it's raining pretty heavy and this is the result Question now is, how do I best sort this short of re-roofing my...

Anyone have any other thoughts on this? trying to track down where the water is coming in from.

Hi Ken, thanks for replying. I live in Manchester so plenty of rain! Neighbour is not the slightest bit interested their Roof or lack of has been like that for 4 years or more. I have recently replaced mine but I now need to sort the join out due to my roof stopping short of neighbours roof.

C'mon someone must be able to help us on here!

Hi guys, thoughts please Got around an inch of water currently sat on my Garage floor after some persistent rain. Garage is in a block and the neighbours to the right has no Roof whatsover so I am thinking water is coming in through the join ( where the bricks are ) Any advice much...
