Hi there, in desperation I'm wondering if you can give me a steer on this. I've got rain getting into my roof void. Could this be the culprit - is it missing a cover? Thx for your advice.
It certainly looks to be missing a cover - but I don`t know what make it is . More experienced roofers may be able to identify it and know if you can retro fit the cover . I would , personally just make a sheet lead cover and slide it into place under the slates - but I could make one to fit with a grille in the front etc.
Thanks everyone for your replies. The roof has been in place for several years so I think the vent tile must have always been like this. We've only recently started getting a substantial amount of water infiltrating so maybe this isn't the problem after all.
The tile pictured is at the foot of the front aspect of a dormer fitted into a pitched roof. You can see the flashing just above the vent. The flat roof of the dormer above is in fairly poor condition and water pools up there.
