Preparing to sell your Midlands home? Don’t overlook the rooflights.
As part of a pre-listing roof check, it’s worth considering:
• The tiles or slates surrounding each rooflight
• Flashing details and how they meet the roof covering
• Membrane transitions around the opening
• Nearby battens and signs of previous repair
• Internal signs of moisture, staining or damp around the rooflight
Some roof areas can be difficult or unsafe to access, so never take unnecessary risks. A property-specific inspection and early advice can help you understand what may need attention before marketing your home.
If you’re aware of a rooflight or roofing issue, it’s important to discuss it openly with your conveyancer, estate agent or surveyor.
