Flippin guttering

If you can get the surface clean, a good daubing of sealant should reduce it. Alternatively, trim a foot of spare gutter to drop into the joint, and slather the underneath with silicone before placing it (with some cunning technique or other).

IME gutter only ever leaks in one of two places 1) immediately over a door 2) somewhere utterly inaccessible.

Only 2 ways, crawl along roof, being grateful its a bungalow or remove a corrugated panel.

Both an embuggerance.

Now there's an idea. :thumbs:

If I tried the crawl idea i'd be in A&E pdq (I remember the Beano/nibbits/brick s*it houses).

I can't remove a panel cos they're all screwed f****** down, unless I started from panel 1 and sequentially demolished the friggin car-port :D

Does it look to have pulled apart? Check the ends that you can get at and see if they are pushed tight into their joints, there should be about 1/2" between the end of the gutter and the stop in the fitting. If that is all pushed up tight you might be able to jiggle/push the section of gutter back into the leaky joint.

This will only be a temporary fix as thermal effects will make the gutter walk out of the joint again.

It's possible that I disturbed it whilst raking out the crud, I'll have a look. The gutter used to overflow in a few places (due to crud) and seeped into the carport so it's far better than it was. Cheers.

Used a ladder laid flat on the plastic sheet with a scaffold board on the rungs

Brother had tried without a couple of years earlier, fractured pelvis and several new roofing sheets, but access was much easier with the gap in the sheeting

A couple of pieces of wood dropped in the corrugations so that they are supported by the wood underneath and a plank on top?

I'll remember that for next time :)
