leaking roof

[gaz1]

after having a chat with the wife.
I've decided to get the roof done properly.
got over 15 grand worth of stuff in there.
she said what are you saving your money for, dont know really just like having money to fall.
there you go there's reason.
not sure what might be best to go for.
its either grp, rubber or felt or tin sheeting.
dont know what these bitchumen felt are like these days.
in the old days you got 10 years life out of them.
next door had theirs dont and it look like it was done by a bunch of cowboys...
they didn't even finished it off.
they paid them but the cowboys didn't come back to finish it off.
to many cowboys out there.their van has nice graphics all over them giving the impression they are professionals.

£1500 plus supply my own ply wood.dont think so bud

not having a go here johnakay your not the only one that does it

the comment above kinda sums it up in many cases but the previous one before that is what disgusts me the most

my advice to you is split the roofs they have theres to sort out and you have yours the only thing thats shared is the join or better known as the ridge cap plate to deal with

you will have to create there ridge but thats easy enough to do with some wood and some felt to torch on

for yours then its your choice felt ask roofman he does know whats hes doing and can best advise on that one

grp lasts 30 years if done right theres always ways out of the garantee

metal roof same coment as above but you need no joins in the metal for a long span as its simply a weak point

Any guarantee is only as good as the company, they can soon close the company down and open a new one to avoid liabilities

the school i do work at had all there roofs done with 25 year guarantee , the firm who supply the felt guarantee it even if firms go down. they send an inspector out to check the job before they do mind .

They will only guarantee the felt though, doubt they'll cover the workmanship

guarantee isn't worth the paper its written on.
new marske was mostly if not all was built by Ceril Payne company.
most houses had shale problems they did a few repairs then went bankrupt .
only to re emerge as lexigen payne building comp.
they all do it to get out of fixing.
