Bow window leaking: drip line/gutters?
Because there is some water coming into my bow window, someone went on my roof to try to determine the problem. When I asked him what I should google he said "gutters and drip line issues". The first thing he was going to try was to put a new drip stick on. If this didn't work he didn't know what the next course of action would be. He is not a carpenter by trade, but is better than many carpenters! Unfortunately he alleges he is now too busy to help me. I haven't had much luck with hiring contractors. Two questions-1. Should I hire a roofer or a carpenter; and 2. Any thoughts on what needs to be done. Thanks!

Where is the water coming in ?
Pictures of the inside of the window and outside would be really helpful.

Most roofers can only fix shingles. They are usually pretty poor carpenters. There is not enough information here to reply, so a better description and pictures would help.
