  1. Could work .
  2. Here was my plan to turn a dog into a unicorn ...
  3. It is siliconed ontop . If I pour water all over the glass I.e running off it - no leak .
  4. That better than ct1 for this ? Remember I need to get it up and under that tiny lip at the front . Old photo - before concrete pour then water proof layer then asphalt. Window on the right - you can see it’s a real shallow upstand after all that goes on .
  5. I forget that this all began years ago so you lot may have forgotten ? Here’s a professional drawing
  6. Nope . I’ve had many years of leaks to know the difference ?? . As I said hope pipe at it makes it leak.
  7. Guys ! Ffs ! Been round this loop a zillion times ! This is the best roof type . It has never leaked . It’s all of 2 yrs old . The asphalt on top is *just* a protective layer - it is not part of the waterproofing. Rain is getting under that glazing frame . Upstands are meant to be 90mm min ? . But because of the balls up with the original roofer and the architect bit understanding I had to raise the upstands . But I can’t have the front higher than my front door . So the front ones are very shallow . This one the worse - maybe only 20mm . Walk on glazing metal frame has structural silicone under it - presumably there’s the slightest of holes there .
  8. Not sure that will be particularly helpful but I’ll keep it in mind ?
  9. Ct1 on a spatula and simply keep pushing it up under that lip until I can’t get anymore in . Still awkward - not sure I can guarantee a good seal .... Otherwise it’s some form of deflection so water simply can’t go up under there ...
  10. Typically stopped raining ! Did this with the hose to reproduce the leak . Can only assume water and wind pushes it up under the metal glazing frame . So what / how can I get under that awkward to access lip ?? . Expanding foam ?? ?
  11. I will do . I don’t mean caused the leak just the discolouration. Wonder if I could just silicone or ct1 the base of the glazing frame straight to the asphalt? I am now assuming it’s water pooling at that point and perhaps rain bouncing up under the frame . I’ll cover the edge to prove my theory . This is the shallowest upstand of all . Remember the original roofer completely screwed my roof up and I had to work around his bodge
  12. Didn’t wait until Spring stuck hose pipe pouring over it . Couldn’t make it substantially worse . As I said I can see it coming in right at the top - so it’s nothing to do with the slab edges like the other leak . Also notice dark patches in the glazing coating . Assume my screws in the upstand have caused that ....?
  13. So today for the first time I have a leak from the walk on glazing directly . I can’t see how it’s coming in . Can see it’s from right at the top near the glass . Silicone outside seems fine . Hard to imagine rain hitting the roof and bouncing up underneath the glazing frame . Assume I’ll have to wait until spring when it’s dry then hose over the glass . Bummer . Apart from the known leak outside the site could of done without this ...?
  14. Finally got round to finishing the ensuite grouting
  15. You can tell it’s nearly the weekend - people getting frisky ?
  16. Veronica elvis Costello . Didn’t use google honest ! You owe me a tenner as I am just about to open a dogs home .
  17. One by Harry styles ?
  18. Now that is a taxing question. Who would 'play' my inner thoughts??????........ ?
  19. As if I’d make up just stuff . Certainly seems very real in my head ...
  20. It’s true . I met “ the bean “ as I use to call her at a Kylie concert . Split up with Kylie because of her .
  21. Silly Sarah , use to be the hot Beeny babe . Now she has more grout stuffed in her face than my bathroom
  22. Was the slab dried out by the time you started tiling ?
  23. Running brothels is a good earner . Always demand ....
