Neighbours roof is leaking into my bedroom
Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.27 PM
I had a new roof done about 6/7yrs ago it's fine, about 5/6weeks ago my neighbours had their roof done and now I've noticed I've got a big damp patch going down the joining wall in my bedroom when I looked outside water is pouring down the wall, I have had no previous problems with my roof before this can you help me as what to do next as it's happened since they got their roof done
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

It could be where your roof and next doors roofs joins together possibly could be leaking through there as it’s not been bonded properly and that could be where rain is coming through and running down your walls

Depending on what next doors new roof is meanin if there’s is slate and yours is tile or vice versu and they haven’t matched the two roofs correctly with a hidden valley that keeps the water flow water tite between the two roofs, that my opinion with expierience.

Please ask your neighbour to contact the roofing company who installed the new system to attend first, the roof should be under guarantee? Second please send photos if possible as this would really help in providing a answer to your ingress issues. Regards Wayne Benson, Benson roofing services

Hi it could be the bonding but also i would take a look at the guttering if the water is pouring down the external wall area.
