Sunroom roof leaking in both corners

    Hi I wonder could someone give some advice. We have a sunroom that is roughly 3 - 4 years old and it has a leak on both corners. It's from the wall of the house that connects the sunroom to it. I went up and had a look at it but I couldn't see anything that stood out immediately. The flashing seems a little raised but I am unsure as to what the problem may be.

    We are not in a position to pay for a repair from a professional so I am hoping to rectify the problem myself.

    Anyone any experiences or advice on this?

    Thanks

    Could you put up pics of the outside where the flashings are?

    It's possible the leaks are coming from the elsewhere and are finding an area in the corner to get in water gets in anywhere as you can imagine
    Seal up the corners with all weather sealant ie silicon
    this should stop the water getting in
