Question:

why is my bay window roof leaking?

Flat roof bay window, water leaking in through to the lounge. There is what looks like a drain hole in the lead on the roof...and water has collected on the roof before now. It seems there might be a blockage with this hole..Just wondering how big a job it is and if my insurance will cover it????

Answer:

Sonds like the scuptor (drainhole is clogged. Try a garden hose with a strait nozzle aatached. Chek your flashing where the roof meets the adjoining roof, Most roof leaks are flasing around vents, chimneys ect. Flat roofs are trouble from the get go. The insurance will mot likely cover it- but you have a 500 or 1000 dollar deductable and they will possibly raise your rate or worse. job sholdn't cost that much so think twice. Best Rj
