    Is the photo the right way up ? It looks like it would run off at that angle .


    But if it is building up , and draining isn't suitable , then a flashing sealed would be the logical thing , or possibly something like 30 x 30 battening ( treated and painted ) a few cm out to deflect the majority of any water .
