Moldy drip edge, staining on interior roof...help!

[Surely Yurts - Steve]

Hi,

I'm in Vermont and can come and help if you are interested.

Last time I looked at one, the Two Girls yurt has sewn seams on the roof cover as opposed to heat seamed panels... I mentioned that to Ken and he says that they have never had any issues with that. I believe him but the industry standard is heat sealed panels...

So, You may just have a leak in the exterior roof cover at the seams or around where the crown piece meets the roof cover.

Jafo is absolutely correct, most yurt moisture problems are from improper ventilation. It is possible to install a screened roof vent and even add a small 12 volt fan which would help with moisture caused by condensation. Though, the amount of water you are talking about is likely from a leak.

Give me a call if you want to talk more. 802-SevenThreeZero-4519
