Just for completeness. Here’s the front effort they left me - i’ve Not touch this . When I flooded the site no water went over these bits as it’s fair too say they’ll leak . Enjoy quality !!

Yeah it’s probably not possible. But ignoring astetics why can’t I just pour water proof concrete ? ( no idea how you get a fall on it - but let’s pretend that’s not an issue )

Perhaps a dumb suggestion But why can’t I just pour waterproof concrete over the entire lot ( upstands in situ and protected ‘somehow’ then perhaps have coloured tarmac or resin driveway . I was always confused on where any water goes as it’s lower ( the slab ) than the entrance . So I want no water going through . Just thinking ?

Just quickly googled it ; says a single ply system - no ply for me ?

Let’s assume I was doing this from scratch ( might happen ! ) - I’m not completely sold on the rubber . What other options might be worth exploring???

Right whilst not the issue a concern ! Looks like the metal frame can tear the rubber ( or I did it when removing it )

Yeah Any joints a potential issue ! Still ; I shall continue abound !!

Lol Wish the paving was shit and it didn’t leak ? Think it’s marshalls metro line

3 sides exposed . Nothing at this point suggests the water getting under the rubber . What worries me now is water runs over this upstand and it doesn’t leak . But runs to the front of the site - has no where to go so pools and *perhaps* goes under my rubber extension to their piss poor attempt at the edges . This upstand once done properly and entombed in water would prove it doesn’t leak ; but somewhere else is . Still ! Try and get 4 sides exposed today and that frame off ( as @PeterW said - stuck down with structural silicone it doesn’t want to move !!!

Oh I do ! I remember his “receipt “ said “ all work guaranteed “ - what ? To be shit and leak ffs ! I’ve only had 2 ‘professional ‘ trades on this project - both shit ; ?

My backs telling me to stop ?

Yep I’m certainly not doing it ! ?

Architect thinks he knows someone who does rubber . My concern is he might say he wants it stripped right back and ripped out . Then he’s starting afresh and not with a bodge .

Yeah I did think of a dam around each one and soak will keep breaking out

My other thought is the water could be getting under the nearest window and running down to the other !!! So I would need to both to be certain water proof

Can’t see a ‘vote’ option a) attempt patch b) rip up and start again ( at mercy of ‘roofer’ )

I seem to recall the issue was it’s lack of flexibility especially when concrete is poured ontop . Architect ‘s call

Rebar !

I’ll wait for Architect- but I think start from scratch will be his advice .....

Definitely did not heighten this one - can prove it ! Too the left you see my concrete block then the wooden firring - no additional height stuff . The more I dig the more disillusioned I get . Can clearly see this lap is free ffs !

I’m not sure about this ! Dead slow !! Managed on the shallowest part to get down to the rebar layer . Carefully by hand removing cement away from rubber upstand . There’s a completely unsealed bit ! . This window I didn’t add upstand height too - so this was the quality roofers ! The more I dig the more certain I’ll be taking the lot up . From the edge pavers should come up easily for re use .

Ok - you understand my concern ; assume worst - hope for best . Will break out around the worst window . Will post pics

I know I didn’t sleep last night ? Architect coming to look at 2pm I’m starting to think I need to rip everything out - literally down to the rubber ???????

Found photo of the low up stands before the pour Not sure breaking down through the concrete to this level is doable ....

It’s permanent. Steel has been exposed to the elements for some time . As the water tracks along it now ; it’s not helping
