  • Roofer Question

    I live in a semi detached Bungalow and I am planning to have a new roof. My neighbours roof is antic brown and I will be having dark grey tiles. My roofer has suggested that I have brown ridge tiles between myside and theirs, as to have dark grey ones on the ridge might cause issues with the neighbour. I don't really know what this would look like as I can't visualize things very well. Is there anywhere I could see a picture of this type of thing?

    Is there something wrong with the roof?

    We went to view a terraced house we're interested in buying and noticed a brown stain in the ceiling of the second bedroom. The condition of the roof from the outside looked suspect. Is it possible this brown stain is coming from the poor roof? It didn't appear damp but the ceiling was supposedly newly decorated so strange that this has appeared.

    Does new flashing need to be fitted?

    I have a flat roof extension to the rear which has lead flashing where the main house joins the roof of the extension. I am about to have 100mm of external insulation and render fitted. Should new flashing be provided on to the new render, or will the existing flashing still be ok.
