Okay - you people have always given me good advice (not necessarily advice I want to hear but good all the same) so try this one
3 years ago we had an extension built. A single storey extension which lean to the front of the house and has a normal /\ type roof at the side of the house. When the weather is damp/humid there's a smell of damp in the house particularly in the new bits. What could be causing this?To give more information. The flashing on the extension looks okay but what do I know... On the front it goes into the wall as normal between bricks. On the side of the house though the builder used a power tool to cut a line in the bricks and then put the flashing in there. I wasn't worried about this at the time as I'd seen it in lots of other houses around here. However now I'm not so sure. Where the extension joins on the side there is definitely a leak as small marks have appeared on the beam separating the house from the new part. However there is no sign of water damage at the front of the house although it still smells and a dehumidifier on for a few hours gets rid of the smell.
Any ideas folks?
Thanks
