Yes the deck is sound. I assume they will attach the firrings to the wooden frame that has been constructed to raise the roof for the insulation to go in. Not sure how else they can do it. I do mean water resistant chip board. We asked our building inspector about this and he didn't seem to have...

It will run from the front to the back.

My garage has been converted and a warm, raised EPDM rubber flat roof has been used to replace the old roof. Unfortunately the roof needs redoing as the builders did a shocking job, which they have admitted fault and replacing at their expense. One of things I spotted when they did it the first...

That is because they are 'so-called'. They are in fact a garage conversion company however I have learned that the internal conversion of a garage is about as far as their skill base goes even though they said they would replace our roof no problem.

My garage has been converted and a warm, raised EPDM rubber flat roof has been used to replace the old roof. Unfortunately my builders did not put a pitch on the flat roof and as result we have large pools everywhere, not to mention an array of other issues. They are admitting fault and have...

Nope not doing it myself, want to get a roofer in to do it.

Hi. I'm trying to decide whether to get a felt roof or an EPDM firestone roof for my garage conversion. I've just been told by one roofer that he's not that keen on EPDM as he says it splits after a while because of sunlight, other people saying there are problems with shrinkage and the seams...

Yep

Hi. Yep I thought it might be damp coming through from underneath from the uncured screed, the floor below the screed was old concrete so won't be any moisture from that. I'm not sure if they put DPM on or not before the latex as I didn't watch him to the work, what's that for? Do you know if...

We've just had our garage converted and our builders have laid a screed floor. Unfortunately soon after it was laid it started crumbling and holes were appearing in places, as electricians and plasters came in to do their work and walked all over it, they did put black sns plastic sheeting down...

The garage can't be viewed from the side as it is joined onto our neighbours garage, but I see your point.

Me too. Aided by a calculator.

Lol. Math's was never my strong point.

Cool cheers

Yeah that's what I thought. I'd been bracing myself all weekend for a confrontation with them over it, but very glad they admitted fault with little effort on my part, although they haven't apologised yet, but I'm just glad they're sorting it. So how do you work out what 1:40 would be. Say the...

Have just been told by the builders that they are going to redo the roof and ensure there is a pitch, they are saying an inch for every 40 inches, I assume that's correct, perhaps someone could tell me? Why they didn't do this in the first place I don't know!!?? Would have saved them a lot of...

Yep habitable space. Building inspection was carried out early in the build. The redo of the roof was to allow for insulation as putting below roof would make the ceiling too low as the floor needed to be raised as well and also I assume to assist with the extension as we extended the garage by...

Having our garage converted at the moment and the builders have had to re do the roof in order to install the required insulation. They've put in a rubber roof but there is no fall line on the roof, it is completely flat (well actually it is quite uneven) but there is no pitch. Can someone tell...

Sorry yes and with tanks, not combi

Heat only boiler. Hope he removes/bridges the pump then... yikes!
