Had the permeant fix today, cost was 450, but that included the initial emergency call out charge so i am happy since i have had 2 call outs for the price. The emergency fix was apparently flashband, but he said that is not a good long term fix.
He essentially took out the felt by the wall, put fresh underlay down, put down a fresh '4mm top cap' felt and chased it into the wall then repointed
He said it was wet under the flashing and that he thinks it was tracking across.
Obviously the real test is when we have rain but i think its fairly common to use felt chased into the brick work as flat roof flashing as opposed to lead?.
