  • Recourse on a leaking roof job?

    I had a leak coming from my roof, down behind the fascia and leaking into my house I had a roofer come out and he says that it might be a few slates and some repointing. He came out and suggested that repointing the ridge tiles would cost £180 including broken slates. I asked if it would fix the leak He said he couldnt guarentee it as the slates are in bad condition. I phoned someone for a second opinion, he didnt get back to coming around which left me with the first guy who came out He told me to call him if the leak still came through The roof the following two days was still leaking down the same area He said he will come and repoint ''some bricks'' Have i any recourse here?

    Matching bricks for an extension

    Is it possible to use bricks in an extension that match your house? Or will they always look a bit different? My house was built in the 1990s, so I'm hoping it's possible to make the extension look seamless.
