Good evening everyone!
We here at the LFBD Roofing team hope you are all having a great weekend so far!
Today we wrapped up a lovely job for a client in durrington, who had reported multiple leaks in his roof causing damp in his property and rot in the floorboards inside his loft.
We stripped off all of the tiles, felt, and batten on the roof. This was only necessary on the front, back, and part of the side, as he’d recently had an extension and the felt work was adequate enough on there already.
On stripping, we found a large number of holes in his felt, so it is safe to say he was definitely due a new roof!
We covered the roof in new felt and batten, and installed a bonding gutter half way down the returning side to allow our new tiles to bond up to a differently gauged tile.
We bumped all of our tiles up a ladder, straight onto the roof, and continued to tile the entire surface before cutting up the hips and valleys which needed doing.
We marked out the front and side with a marking stick, and pinged out vertical chalk lines on all of the battens to allow us to tile completely straight, keeping everything aesthetically perfect. This was unnecessary on the back however.
We finished off by running all of the hips and ridge, cutting a mitre where they meet, and pugging everything up to conclude.
This was a lovely job start to finish, and our client was more than pleased!
We are always open to taking on workloads of all sizes, so please contact us if you require any assistance that is roofing related! We’re always happy to help!
Many thanks,
The LFBD Roofing team.
