How do I know if my new roof needs replacing
How can I know with certainty that a new roof ought to be replaced?
Adhoc Torch on Felt
I had a roofer inspect a flat roof a couple of months ago, who then made some patch repairs using torch on felt. Another roofer cam to quote for a replacement roof today and said the felt hadn't been torched on properly and water had got underneath the add on section. The felt could be lifted up without much effort and some of the edges on the felt underneath seemed to be peeling away. He then recommended I remove all of the add on felt as this was far worse than just having the felt below it. First of all, how bad of a job is this and secondly, is this likely to have caused any major damage in two months given we've been having a lot of rain? I appreciate any answers and you taking the time to respond.

How much weight can a garage roof hold?
I'd rather not start the year off by falling through a roof, so Is it safe to walk on a garage roof without damaging it? It is a flat felt roof and I need to get up there for a quick job, but I’m worried about it sagging or giving way under my weight.
