Hi,

I have a rip in some of the roofing membrane iruns down the edge he loft that runs down the edge of the rafter, it's leading to some condensation dripping down the torn bit. I am just trying to find the best solution to repair the rip and recreate the seal.

Can anyone recommend the best product or method to repair this? I'll send a picture when I get up the loft again soon?

Thank you

Oliver

I've had success with flashband, using a heat gun and metal seam roller to apply.
However, might be more difficult if the rip is right up against a rafter.

If it's a very minor drip you might be OK just putting a tray underneath.
If it ends up being a more significant leak and you can't patch it, you'll have to get it repaired from the outside.

You could also try to add more ventilation (e.g. felt lap vents) to reduce the condensation.
