The roof question

Hello all.

Can roofers advice name of material used on parapet wall, the one highlighted in red. I have spoken to some roofing suppliers, they have never heard about it. It seems to me kind of DPC made from fiberglass or something else. not sure.

Would have thought grp would be seamless, appears to be several in pic, looks like epdm.
There is a roofing section here better to ask those doing it for a living.

In order to get a better answer and more out of the forum it would probably be advantageous to explain more about what the issue is. And as foxy mentioned better off in roofing. I'll ask the mods to move the thread. If they were awake they'd have done it already!

That does not fill me with confidence, it is a strip of grp.

Is that lead flashing right??

Oh my good God! What a mess, I have never seen anything like this before in my life!
Anyway, get a roofer (please, not a bulder) to go up, remove the coping stones, throw away the GRP, check that lead is no longer than 1.5 metres (if it is, throw that away too). Install soakers and then put a lead flashing over the top, then finally re-install the coping stones.
