Context: Have had a chimney stack removed by a professional roofer (found through checkatrade with 200+ near perfect reviews). Work was carried over 2 days.
Once finished, I went in the loft and noticed some light coming through a couple of the tiles in the area that was affected. Proceed to call the roofer and he was happy to return and have a look - Said everything was fine and not to worry, said those gaps were protected by sealant, as well as the new breathable felt, and went up the roof again to recheck (equipped with the sealant gun) to give us some peace of mind.
I have attached the following pictures:
#1, #2: Inside the loft, the 2 visible light points.
#3: First day of work finished (not final product!)
#4: Finished product - Can't snap better picture as ladder belonged to roofer, sorry.
I have no idea about roofing and what is acceptable or not, I am confident in the roofer as he appeared to be very courteous and experienced, as well as equipped with very good online feedback, but I still have that nagging feeling at the back of my head - so need to ask, is this a normal situation?
