MancWanderer Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Spoke to my mum tonight. She's got a leaking bedroom window House is a classic semi with bay windows and it appears that her bedroom bay window has a flat "roof" on it covered in lead - despite her living there for the last 32 years I can't say that I've ever taken a good look other than all the bays appear to be flat on top Nephew's mate has been round and temporarily sealed it but said that it needs the lead replacing as it's cracked She's panicking thinking about the cost. I've no clue at all. Any experts on here know what I'm talking about and have advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Steejay Posted December 13, 2018 Site Supporter Share Posted December 13, 2018 Hmmm, sounds like a general wear and tear deterioration so home insurance won’t cover it. I suggest you ask around for a reputable roofer who will give you a guarantee - if they don’t give a guarantee then he’s not reputable.
