Few slates skipped on roof with foam underneath..,how should I go shout sorting this out. Shall I reattach the slates ad they flip?
Hello - we are considering buying a house where the wisteria has been left to run riot and now covers three sides of the roof. It is an old three storey high building so very difficult to access. Roofer or tree surgeons ? Any ideas of what this will cost ?
Our semi detached neighbour had a leak in bathroom which adjoins our landing wall. Roofers came recommended by letting agents and fixed their side and we asked to inspect ours whilst up there and said ours was fine. A couple of days after they finished, we found that this landing wall had damp patches (just been newly decorated) and now it is lifting the lining paper off the wall and a fine crack has now appeared. We have reported to letting agents and roofer (roofer has not responded to countless emails and voice messages). Where do we stand as we now have to get this big damp patch fixed and roof repaired before it gets worse
There's water leaking from my guttering and it's spilling down onto the surface below. How can I quickly identify where the leak is coming from exactly? And is this a job that I can safety perform by myself?
We have a tile shifted/moved/broken on the front and back of our 3 story town house, which has also got solar panels on. Is it possible to repair the roof without removing the solar panels completely. Or is the a company who are both solar installers and roof repairers. Or can it be repaired from the inside?
Firstly how watertight are roof skylights is it wise to have them installed. And secondly dry ridge system, compared to old school cement ridge! (which is better for the customer!).
In terms of planning permission, does replacing the tiles count as a new roof? Or is it when the whole thing is redone?
My neighbour has a new roof, they have not said how they were joining the 2 roofs, or asked any permission to move our tiles, when I looked up and asked why they had a divider installed wonky / top bowing towards our roof, if I could add a pic I could show you, they argued my roof tiles aren't straight, but before they removed them roof was fine, it will be the only roof I have seen without a straight line down, can they do this?
We have replaced our roof and the roofer has used a dry bonding gutter between ours and the adjoining roof. The neighbour does not like the appearance of the up-stand between the properties. We have tried to explain that this is the recommended method as mortar can cause other problems. I’m not sure how far this will go, but I was wondering whether the gutter could be moved on to our side of the divide without causing more issues.
I've got a largish terrace which has an asphalt roof, asphalt type boiled up from blocks in tar boiler. Presently part covered in GRP tiles. Tiles and asphalt have moved with heat and it looks very untidy. Terrace is laid over solid beam and block first floor so area needds to be water tight. Can tiles be removed and asphalt replced or is it better to remove both and relay with something else.
