Hi i had a survery done and this is the report i would like to get an estimate of how much would this cost
Description:
The main roof over the property is a pitched roof, which has incudes both gable and hip structures structure.
It is covered with natural slates, which are laid over timber battens (that are nailed across the roof structure, which is covered
separately).There is no membrane beneath the slates, so no secondary layer of protection against rainwater ingress.
There are ridge and hip tiles bedded in cement mortar at the outward intersection of pitches, which are clay. There are also small verge
sections which are closed with the top edges of the rendered walls, with the slates forming a slight overhang.
The roof covering runs to the roof of the adjoining property and there is no joint between them – the slating is continuous.
Ventilation to the roof space is provided by vent tiles through the roof covering.
Condition:
Overall the roof covering appears to be in a fair condition, with only a few minor issues evident.
There are a few broken, slipped and/or missing slates
The ridge and hip tiles appeared to be becoming loose, as the mortar bond has deteriorated. Bedding ridges upon cement mortar creates
an weak bond, as the mortar does not adhere well to either the ridge or the covering (Most modern ridges are ‘dry-fixed’
, which are
mechanically screwed to the timber structure). In traditional mortar bedded roofs the weight of the ridge itself is a major contributor to it
staying in place. The hip irons are somewhat corroded (rust). The timber battens were found to have a high moisture content, considered
to be damp. This leads to decay and over time causes the nails securing the slates to corrode if they are not copper (and often they are
not).
Action:
No immediate action required.
However, we would recommend: within the next 5-10 years, removal of the entire roof covering including all slates and battens.
Replacement with a new slate covering, which would incorporate a membrane between the battens and the roof structure.

Hi, was recommended to speak to you by Peter Jones. We have a small bay roof which is leaking into the ground floor room at the point where the pitch meets the wall and is protected by the lead flashing. We’ve repointed the lead but it still leaks so we think the lead needs replacing. Is this something you can do for us? Address is 31, Rope Lane, Wistaston, ***. Thanks, Mark Appleton.
