Replacing Felt Roof
Reply with quote Thanks

I have two felt/flat roofs and am considering have them repalced to slate & pitch. One roof is on an extension to the side of the house and is a few inches lower than the original slate roof on the main house and looks pretty naff. Are pitch roofs better or is it a ££ decision? Is this a major job?

Not,if you do it yourself icon_wink.gif You don't say how big the roof area is and depending on your area.

Not if you know what you're doing but you will need building permission as you're altering the size of the roof.
