I am planning to fix sunshade at my home to stop dampness. The problem is the sunshade is steep towards the wall, instead of being steep at the end[the end of the sunshade will look like --|. During rain water starts to get collected at the wall leading to dampness inside home…Could you please suggest a way to fix this issue. The building is 46 years old.
