Could work .

It is siliconed ontop . If I pour water all over the glass I.e running off it - no leak .

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 .

I forget that this all began years ago so you lot may have forgotten ? Here’s a professional drawing

Nope . I’ve had many years of leaks to know the difference ?? . As I said hope pipe at it makes it leak.

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 .
-
Not sure that will be particularly helpful but I’ll keep it in mind ?

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 ...
-
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 ?? ?
-
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
-
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 ....?

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 ...?

Now that is a taxing question. Who would 'play' my inner thoughts??????........ ?

As if I’d make up just stuff . Certainly seems very real in my head ...

It’s true . I met “ the bean “ as I use to call her at a Kylie concert . Split up with Kylie because of her .

Was the slab dried out by the time you started tiling ? -
