Who do I get to fix this?

Found out on Tues night that the Velux window in the loft is leaking, but it's not coming from the window itself its coming from where the window and roof meet. Do I get a glazer of a roofer to look at this?

I've no idea how old the window is, it was in before we moved in (5yrs) and this is the first we've noticed any water coming in. Nobody has been on the roof since we got the ridge tiles fixed a couple of years ago.

Any help would be appreciated!

I'd call a roofer first and explain the situation on the phone, most of the time they'll come over and see what it is, and if it's something they can fix they'll give you an estimate.
They may however find other faults whilst up there, so try and use one you've used before or a family member trusts.

Every Velux window has a unique number on it ( inside the frame where it opens on ours) you can email velux customer service and they can tell you when it was manufactured so you have some idea how long it's been in, useful if the roofer needs to know etc
