flashing

Hi, My Hotpoint integrated dishwasher has started beeping and flashing all it's lights whilst running. As far as I can tell it's still running during a cycle but has a pattern of beeping and flashing the lights. I've had a google to see what it could be but results only talk about 3 lights...

Hi - woodburner - stainless pipe through roof via lead flashing - has storm collar - ok for several years now (after some external sealing with grey lead sealant) though now leaking a bit in intense rain between the double wall pipe and the lead tube. (suspect through rain bouncing off roof...

My Mums house has a little lean-to with a Poly-carbonate roof which had a Flashing Tape seal. We hired a roofer to fit Lead flashing, this is the result, it's obviously messy, but I'm not sure it's even chased into the wall properly, the pitched part isn't stepped in, and there's a hole at one...

Hi All, Recently added a new single storey extension with a gable style roof that abuts the existing house wall. I took a gamble, and decided to have a stab at doing the step and cover flashing myself. I knew it was a risk. Now hlat the point of boarding it out, however I decided to do one...

I'm looking to replace the plastic roof on a large lean-to shed. The shed is against the garage and the roof is tucked in just below the slates on the garage roof. Doesn't look like enough room to get any flashing in there. The existing roof has somehow been bent up, but not sure how that was...

I had a new lean-to garage built two and a half years ago. It seemed to be a good job and I was very happy with it. (Only minor glitch I was aware of was that the roof has always ponded at the back, which is visible on the photo below but not related to the main problem). However, earlier...

I'm no expert of roofing, far from it infact, so can somebody please advise if this is correct as looks so amateurish! Thanks in advance :)

Hi Wonder if someone can give me some advice. We had a new flat roof installed last year and it looks a good job by a reputable company. We discovered a leak recently and they come to look at it and added some sealent over the existing seal. I'm a bit concerned this isn't the best remedy if the...

I'm planning on building a simple lean to that will stick out of the back of my shed. The plan is for it to be a wooden frame with a corrugated bitumen roof. Its just for keeping the rain off various things that I dont have space for in the shed. What I was wondering is how to do the flashing...

Ive had a quote to replace lead which is between the house and a flat fibreglass roof (which is also a fairly large balcony area). The original lead, I am told, was installed wrong, as it wasnt split in to sections to allow thermal expansion and contraction, so it has split. It also seems to...

Hi I am using Marley modern concrete tiles and my extension roof abuts the existing house wall so i'll need to install a flashing. Can a hidden soaker be used with a stepped flashing or does the flashing need to go on top of the tiles? I would prefer to use a hidden soaker although if that's...

I’m about to start work on converting and extending an old stone barn. Ground floor extension is due to be flashed into a round stone wall (external of turret style room) for a short section above the door (see picture). Surface of stonework is irregular and curved (see picture) which makes...

Hi, Recently discovered mould on the south facing wall of my house close to the party wall. It was hidden behind a cupboard so we didn't notice it developing. I'm not sure if this is from condensation or a leak. Can't see any obvious places for water to get in on the back wall. There is...

hi. Yesterday the builder finished the roof on our extension. I was slightly concerned to see these gaps at the nose of each tile as the flashing steps down the pitch. Potential for water ingress with rain/wind and insect entry?? Any advice would be greatly received. Many thanks.

Hey Folks! I am about to fit a new fibreglass roof and i've got the whole sequence down except this one piece. I've fitted lead flashings before and understand how they go in, but I'm looking at these fibreglass replacements and i'm filled with trepidation. I'm hoping someone can put me out...

Need galvanised flashing for bottom of garage door. Top picture shows what's needed. Bottom picture shows what was there and has been taken off. Taken off is 'Dexian 140' x 2200mm, but it's rotted. I've phoned every local supplier I can think of looking for this. I was helpfully told by one that...

Hi, Can't seem to find details of the soakers/flashing required for uPVC window in stud partition with vertical plain tile cladding. Do I need a sill tray/pan Do I need to get heavy with the lead tools and boss out my own Do I need to put soakers in the ends of the tiles as I think I can see on...

Dear all, I currently have a 5 bulb chandelier (image attached) that holds 5 240v 42w Bayonet bulbs; these are controlled by a 1 way dimmer switch. We have had this set-up for a while without issue. We thought we would start moving to LED bulbs so bought some LED Filament dimmable candles...

About to wrap my timber framed garden office with the breathable membrane and battens but am unsure how the edge detail is finished with an EPDM roof. The cold roof rafters end flush with the stud wall rather than any overhang. If I go by the limited diagrams seen so far (see attached), then...

Just wondering what would have caused the following. I moved my NAS box from my kitchen to above my hallway data cabinet, and when I plugged the USB cable in between my NAS and the UPS, it shorted out all the 5v USB ports on my NAS. Unplug and re-plug the USB cable on the UPS end, same thing...
