Hi All

 

I have vaulted ceilings in 2 of our bedrooms. The rafters are 175mm, I have 100mm PIR between rafters and then 100mm PIR under the rafters, 25mm battens and then PB.

 

we are having some heavy ish rain tonight and when I went to check on my daughter I could what sounded like water dripping on top of PIR insulation. My only thoughts were that this could be condensation? I have never noticed this at all before 

 

I haven’t got any soffit vents, would these be worth installing?

 

I have attached a couple of photos of my roof. The red arrow is where the dripping sound is coming from and the light blue light denotes the room inside. As you can see I have mushroom vents on my flat roof but no soffit vents  
 

Is there anything else this noise could possibly be? Why has it only just started now?

 

any comments would be greatly appreciated as I am a little worried about this. 
 

Many Thanks 

The chimney flashing detail maybe?

dripping off the chimney coping onto the back gutter. Ours do it too...

Now I feel stupid…but relieved haha 

 

This makes complete sense 

 

Many Thanks for the replies!

Same here... Dripping into metal gutters drove me mad. Enjoy it now 😃 

Dripping off the chimney!

 

It's amazing how 'loud' it can sound on a roof. We have it from our stove pipe onto the lounge flat roof (bungalow).
