The extension completed for me was a 6 month project; if there were any issues either during the project or now it has finished, Joe sorts it out. This company did a great job at repairing the felt roof on my garage. They gave me a competitive quote, were swift, cleaned up after themselves and talked me through exactly what they were going to do.
If you have water spots that spread across ceilings or appear down walls, the problem is plausibly a roof leak. Hunting down the leak is the tough part; the fixes are normally pretty simple. We'll give you some simple tips for locating and restoring most of the popular types of roof leaks. If you possess a roof leakage, you'd better correct it quickly, even if it doesn't worry you much or you have a new roof soon being constructed.
At any stage in a pitched roof's lifetime, it is going to require more than just small roof repairs. A well built pitched roof can last 50 years or more, but if a few of the lead valleys have issues, a couple of ridge tiles have broken. Some single tiles or slates have moved, and there are leaks or abbreviations showing in the loft then it should be time for a complete refurbishment of your roof.
A flat roof is usually defined as possessing a pitch know greater than 15° to the horizontal. A flat roof would not permit rainwater to drain away, so most flat roofs have a slight fall on them to allow the rainwater freely flow to collection points. While you can have tiled roofs of 10-15° those are actually flat roof systems with a surface covering of tiles.
A dormer is an upright window that has a roof of its own, placed, at least in part, in the slope of the roof. When dormers are 'correct' they can view wonderfully. When things go wrong, they look ghastly. It is a question of both size and position. Many self-builders forget that when early cottages were built, there were no dormers - because there were no window openings at first-floor level.
