Thank you for your kindness in responding to my earlier request.  My computer system fizzed out soon after, and its taken me this long to get it going again with the help of Microsoft Support.  While waiting to get my system fixed, I returned to the task and eventually solved it by persistence.

This type of pelmet can be removed by pulling at it out as it is held together by four 1 inch sticky pads ???   So problem solved.

 

The bigger problem now it seems is where the patio interfaces with the roof.  Got a roof repair man to come on Thursday to see what can be done to  'stop' rain from running under the interface color bond patio roof as the Spanline people placed small plastic stoppers where color bond sheet meets the tiled roof. The placed plastic stoppers in the gaps, and these deteriorated and crumbled to show that Patio World/Spanline did not provide a good solution to this patio installation. 

Any thoughts on a solution?  Anyhow, thanks a million for your interest and support.  Lets see what the roof repair fellow suggests.  Keep safe and in good health.

Great, glad to see that you have got the pelmet off @anthony (and got your computer running again, too!)

 

Good luck with the roof doctor. Let us know how you go and do feel free to share some photos if you want a second opinion.
