Hi,
Had a single storey extension built last year. The roof is pitched, quite low but acceptable for the 4 velux’s apparently.
A couple of months ago, randomly, about a cup full of water just fell out from around one of the ceiling spot lights. I’m not talking a drip, about a cup full of water just fell out of it all at once and then it stopped. (It was raining heavily at the time).
I had it all out and the area around the spot didn’t feel soaking wet.
Anyway, builders came back and replaced a cracked tile at the top of the velux next to this spot. Everything has been fine since.
Again today, we’ve had consistent rain all day and the exact same thing has happened from the same light. Also, there is signs that water is running down from that velux area but nothing directly around the window itself.
I’m getting a roofer in but just wanted to know if this is a typical problem? The roof looks in decent condition, can’t see any cracked tiles looking from above.
Thanks for the help.
