Roofs Construction
Button: Sloping Roof - Tile
Text: The sloping roof is finished with tiled coverings
Roofs Notes
Button: Main Roof Replaced Check Consents
Text: The main roof coverings have been renewed. You should ensure that the replacement works comply with any relevant Local Authority consents or Building Regulations
Button: Tingles Present
Text: A number of slates are secured with metal strips, known as tingles, which suggests past instances of slate slippage and individual replacement. This typically indicates that the fixing nails to the original roof coverings are reaching the end of their serviceable life and may be failing more extensively
Button: Pressure Washing Warning
Text: Evidence suggests that the roof coverings have been pressure washed. Although this method is commonly used to remove moss accumulation, it can also strip the protective surface of the coverings, thereby shortening their remaining lifespan
Roofs Defects
Button: Extension Roof Poor Ventilation
Text: The extension roof lacks sufficient ventilation, and improvements are required to prevent condensation and associated deterioration
Button: Roof Near End of Life
Text: The main roof coverings are nearing the end of their effective lifespan and should be considered for full refurbishment or replacement
