Conservatory Roof Leaking

[sgreenwood1]

Hello.

Can anyone help with a leaky roof on our conservatory.

It always leaks around the 'semi circular' area highlighted in the photos. Always out of the area circled.

I've managed to re-affix the fallen internal item but its still leaking.

It's been like this since we moved into the house. I'm guessing it's been 'sealed' by the previous tennants (somewhat badly)...

Any ideas whether this is an easy DIY fix (if so, how) and of not any companies in the Northampton area that'd be able to help?

Hi Steve
I've fixed a few in my time.
The main reason for leaking generally is the panels start to slide out! If you look in the gutter can you see any evidence of that happening?

You need to fix the leak from the outside.

Are you also renting?

I've attached some photos of the outside.

I can get closer up - to check if there's any obvious signs of the panels slipping - by climbing onto the tiled roof of our extension but as it's windy today I'll postpone.

I'm reluctant to climb onto the conservatory itself, naturally, as I doubt it's safe.

We own the house and I suspect the conservatory is 20 years old so may need a little more than patching up.

I have 2/3 companies coming to take a look over the next week. I suspect each will state we need at least a new roof.

You can see in the first pic that that panel at least has dropped.

Ok thanks. So is it as simple as pushing this toward the peak from near the gutter or is it more involved?
