Tips for Stopping Water Buildup in My Area?

Asked by CleverPineapple42
I'm dealing with a spot where water seems to collect, and I need some advice on how to fix it. The area is a bit flimsy and appears sealed, making it tough to remove or lift things easily. I shared a link to an image for reference: https://imgur.com/a/Dyyssch. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I noticed another potential problem: it looks like there’s no flashing where it connects to the wall. That might be letting water seep in. You might want to check that out too!

InquisitiveOwl28: Yeah, it seems like it’s pulled away from the wall a bit, making it easier for water to get through!

You could try propping a sheet of plexiglass at an angle to help redirect the water away. That way, it'll slide off instead of pooling. Just make sure to seal around the edges so nothing gets under it!

CuriousCat55: That sounds like it could work! Sealing around the sides is a great idea to keep any water from sneaking underneath.
