Rain causing damp through gap between glass and brickwork
Posted: Sun Jan 14, 2024 3:37 pm
The paint in one of the top corners of my kitchen keeps peeling away (usually after bouts of rain). The wall sits beneath a glass-roofed side return, so I'm wondering if rain is somehow getting through a gap between the glass and the brick-work. I'm not sure if I'll have to pull up all the flashing in order to determine the cause of the problem - It would be quite a lot of work to do so, so I'm just curious if here are any other obvious causes/If there are any easy fixes to resolve the issue? (I.e. Would it suffice to apply a lot of filler/sealant in any gaps between the flashing and the glass/brickwork?). Thanks
