Hi,
Could anyone offer any advice on this for me please.
We are going to look at a house on Saturday which had been greatly reduced because of the damp problem. The agents suggest that it is possibly caused by bad render. But could it be shoddy roofing instead to blame?
It does seem that there is no overhang whatsoever on the gable ends of this property. Could that be the cause of the damp problem here? The tiles seem to be flush with the render. There are no fascias or verge tiles (sorry I'm a novice, is that the right terminology I'm looking for?). Does that mean that rain can penetrate?
I've attached pics to show this.
It would be good to go to the viewing armed with some questions to ask, so thank you for any advice you can give.
