Figuring out if my eaves felt needs replacing
How can I safely tell if my eaves felt needs to be replaced without getting on to the roof?
Neighbours new roof
My neighbours have just had their English tile roof replaced. All the builds around here are metal framed houses, tiled roofs and then the inside sprayed with insulation. The neighbours have had theirs completely over hauled. Their roof now sits slightly higher than mine and a bonding gutter has been added between the properties, the roofers removed some of my tiles and the foam to tie the roofs in, i can now see daylight in my loft, does this matter or is it ok as long as the tiles have correct cover?

Any advice on how to install the flashing that will works with the window and materials needed is much apreciated. Thanks
Timber for roof shingles
How long does the timber below roof shingles tend to last? Does it depend on the type of wood? And if so, could you give me an idea of what applies to each option? What are the pros and cons of each type of underlaying timber for roof shingles? Thanks for your time!
Cement instead of lead flashing around chimney
There's no lead flashing around my chimney, just cement. Is this OK? I haven't noticed any problems, but I thought all joins/edges had lead flashing.
Semi detached roof
I live in a semi detached house. My neighbour recently got their half of the roof retiled. Their roofer has tiled their half up to the boundary of our property, leaving a couple inch gap and a partition strip fully on my side. Surely this can't be right. What is the correct way for the joint between the semis to be done? I'm assuming it was done this way as it was easier to remove full tiles but that's not my problem.
Changing a flat roof
Is it possible to change a flat roof to a pitch roof on a single storey extension?
Roof insulation boards
