Iv done this but it’s hard to tell as I don’t get much play on the lead, but I can see the felt that’s slightly lapped up the wall underneath the lead is dry, but as you can see in the photos the wall in the attic space from the inside has water drops running down it.. or is the water coming in...

It’s hard to see, it’s very tight. But iv cut a hole in the ceiling which is below the lead line and the wall has drips? Iv also just been on the roof and there’s a hairline crack going from the window cil down to the lead, do you think this could be the issue? And also could it lead to that...

This is what is confusing me, upstairs as you can see from the photos it looks like a cavity wall because I can see the inner and out leafy brick work. But when I come downstairs I can’t see the cavity because there’s bricks over the lintel? Regarding the wall, do you mean the wall in the roof...

Hi mate, iv attached several photos. The cleared cavity downstairs is where the leak is. And iv also taken photos of the upstairs box room window, as you can see there’s an old damp patch on the floor from around 10 days ago. This started drying out, but now we’ve have more heavy rain today the...

Thanks for this! I will take more photos and attach them in around 15 minutes. I hope you can see something I can’t

It’s stone, I think the photo makes it look worse as the old paint is coming off. The edges of the sil are naturally chipped for effect.. do you think water could be coming in from somewhere on the cil?

As in the sealant looks crumbled or chipped? Or the window sil? You previous asked if the window sil was wooden or wooden. Thanks!

It’s a stone window sil, but can’t see any cracks of gaps anywhere?

This is what I thought, but eveything under the lead seems dry. To me, it looks like it’s soaking thru the render and the internal lintel is only wet because the bricks running a cross it are acting like a bridge for the water. I’m Really confused at where it’s coming from.

Above there’s just a box room. We’ve recently done it all out with no issues. But 10 days ago the left side of the window was soaking wet, I took the skirting board off to reveal a dripping internal wall. But I went outside and resealed the window, this has no dried out. But the door which is...

Ok, so what would you recommend? Where would it be coming from exactly? Thanks!

Iv had the lead flashing re done tho? 12inch lead and the roof is only a year old. This all got checked last week. And if it was the main roof wouldn’t the walls upstairs be wet?

Iv also had the lead work re done last week. Iv cut a small hole in the ceiling too and the ‘loft’ area seems dry?

Well I’m not sure? Only the right side of the lintel is wet which is the furthest side of the Downpipe. this is why I’m confused lol.

hi John. Yes the door is underneath the Downpipe! If this is the case, What do you think the cause is? ..

Hi guys. We’ve had about 3 weeks of rain more of less, but only over the last week our lintel has been dripping wet for days during heavy rain. The lintel is above an internal door going into a small extension with a lean to roof above. Iv removed the plasterboards on the head of the reveal to...
