Do I book a roofer; general builder or individual tradesmen?
Hi We are self-building a two storey extension on our semi-detached house. We are nearly up to the wall-plate of 1st floor and looking at arranging quotes for roof-work. Our planning permission is for changing the roof from a gable to hipped roof with 2 veluxes added; a new gable roof to the 1st floor extension. Plus a dormer. Any original roof remaining, may need to be replaced (ridge tiles definitely)? I've emailed a few roofers but not getting much response back. Should I be contacting general builders instead or arranging individual tradesmen? I expect lead in times will be long so prepared for any wait. Structural engineer plans also completed.

How can I keep moss off my roof?
There's a lot of trees near my house (not on my property) and I think it's because of this I get lots of moss on my tiles. I've had it removed once but obviously it's become mossy again. Is there anything I can do to keep the moss off? My tiles are Welsh slate.
