    Default Rain

    It's past 1-00am, it's pouring with rain, I want to go to bed, and the rain is coming in through the kitchen roof.

    I know this thread is not going to stop the rain or the leak, but a problem shared,..........

    Poor Kevin, you will just have to get your wellies on and get up there and get mrs.m to hold a brolley for you and put a plastic sheet over it or plastic bags or something.
    Seriously, it must be a great worry to you, hope you can sort it and the kitchen doesnt get wet,

    Yep, thanks all and I got it sorted, (I put two buckets under it).lol.

    It was not so much the heavy rain that was causing the problem, but the direction that the wind was blowing it at the house.

    I noticed the cement flashing's were looking a bit shabby and cracked, but it has not been a problem untill now. Best get up and have a look.

    That really depends if the person can take a joke/jest or not, I believe K/M can give and take.
