Hi I'm buying a house in Hope in Flintshire. We've had the homebuyer's report back and it's flagged up a few things that need doing with the roof.
- End trusses not properly secured to walls and no bracing to gable trusses making the roof liable to movement in strong winds
- Porch tile cracked and needs replacing
- Vented soffit board needs replacing at the front of the house
- Roof lining slightly loose around the vents in the rear roof slope
The bold ones worry us the most, especially the trusses! Does anyone know roughly how much this would cost to repair with a local tradesman? Obviously I'm not looking for an exact figure. It's a relatively small end terrace. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
