[QUOTE="hendrebc, post: 8023637, member: 70166"] Did some bodging of my own tonight as well doing something I know nothing about up a ladder with a torch in true bodger style. Big damp patch on the rendering of the house and water running down the window under here where whoever had the house before us quite a long time ago had done some bodging and it failed. I knew there were some lead offcuts on the floor of an outbuilding on the farm so I gathered them up, found some ancient tin snips and had a go. Its solid and there are no holes there now managed to shove the bits under the lead and copper sheet that qas already there. I'm guessing that the copper sheet you can just about see should come down another inch or so but it doesn't someone had just covered the hole with plaster that fell off... Looks a f**king mess i know but I see no way water could get in now hopefully it will do until I can do a better job with a bigger piece of lead that would do it in one go or even better get someone who knows what they are doing 🙈 [ATTACH type="full"]1020770[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
