Doneand.... relax.
Fwiw a relative of mine had an intermittent leak a some years ago that sounds very similar. In his case I figured out that the air brick on the outside wall backed onto a clay duct to cross the cavity, however that duct had been fitted sloping slightly downwards to the inside. So (only) when the rain was driven at that elevation the damp patch would appear on the wall beneath.duke63 wrote:Just been in the loft in the middle of a humongous storm to se where our very minor water leak is.
It appears to be getting in either through or around an air vent. It's the must inaccessible part of the space for it to be. But a large towel is sufficient to soak up the drips for now.
Could be wind direction and volume of water in a downpour - not uncommon.duke63 wrote:It's an air vent on a pitched roof at the front of the house.
I can't get close enough without some more boards at the moment but I needed to see in a downpour as it doesn't leak on just a wet day and their is no apparent misplaced tiles on the roof. I could do with a drone really but in any case there is no way I am climbing on any roof.
It maybe that when I can see from directly underneath that I can what the problem is.
Its quite possible. The water was only dripping through even thiough it was the mother of all downpours so i might just put a drip tray there and leave it.C00kiemonster wrote:Could be wind direction and volume of water in a downpour - not uncommon.duke63 wrote:It's an air vent on a pitched roof at the front of the house.
