Semi detached bungalow, reroof in flat concrete tiles, including new lead flashings around the chimney, fibreglass valleys, and two hips.
PROPERTY TYPE
Semi detached bungalow
COVERING TYPE
Existing concrete tile
ADDITIONAL MATERIALS
Breathable membrane, lead flashings, and ridge tiles
The detached bungalow began to sweat due to the increase of loft insulation and the existing felt was not breathable. We removed the existing tiles and the felt and battens. We installed a new breathable membrane and battens. As the tiles were still in a very good condition, these were reused. The chimney was reflashed with new Code 4 lead and repointed where necessary. The verge and ridge were cemented.
