Roof Leak - Recommendations Please

[tpthai2]

Red tile roof leaking at what appears to be the seam of the roof and the carport.

Really need a recommendation for a local CM company or team.

Any comments in this regard much appreciated.

Do you mean where the lean to abuts a wall? difficult to interpret what your problem is; photo? If its the abutment, chances are the original mortar fillet the Thais use as a flashing is damaged or a piece has broken away.

if its accessible can you do this yourself.

If you dont have a mortar fillet then the easiest solution is to buy a roll of flashband from any major store, you can buy it in 5 or 10m rolls, simply peal off the backing and stick it on the wall and the tiles. Just check the product first, some will require a primer painting on first, others dont need.

Sappersrest,

Very kind and generous offer, thank you.

In my current state I think I will go with Dan's recommendation as

he has personal experience with the crew he recommends.

Best regards and thank you again.

If your getting older,stay off the ladder.Hire professionals.Maybe A little less money in your wallet.But if you fall when your old you might never be 100% again.spend the money

No rain, take your time.

Ask whoever inspects it to take pics and post them here so we can ensure a proper job.

Roofs are one of the worst scam/botch job areas.

You're welcome

Ask one of your neighbours. There is always somebody that knows somebody that knows somebody who could do the job.
