we have had steady rain all day. I went this afternoon to move in a new stove, found a puddle behind the stove. the water problem at the walls is even worse than I thought. every leak in the J channel corresponds to a damaged floor or window in the MH! guy at home depot showed me some nice 3/4 inch J channel that is used for siding. it comes in 12 foot strips. think it would work at a small substitute gutter for the MH? waiting for the sun to shine and the sound of running water to stop.....

Hi, I have a 90 degree section of roof -- where 2 roof sections come together - i am sure there is a name for this -- and it creates a long channel from the rooftop to the edge. in the summer water runs down the channel and into the gutters and down the downspout. in the winter there seems to be a build-up of ice right at the bottom of the channel - the inside corner of the 90 degree roofline and creates huge icicles filling the gutters with ice and dripping down onto my front steps... is this due to lack of insulation in the attic -- allowing the snow to melt or do i need to change the gutters or roofing? house in Ottawa Canada -- standard shingled roof thanks!
