Cracked GRP

Fibreglass roofs can crack at the kerb corner where movement concentrates.

Missing trims

Without a trim or flashing to protect the top edge, water gets in behind the membrane.

Roof lanterns in Scottish Borders

Snow and ice sitting at the eaves can block a lantern's drainage and push water back under the glass as it melts. If your lantern leaks after a thaw rather than after rain, tell us — it points to the eaves and kerb.
