You need to make your own, those are not going to work for a stone roof.

If they didn't put any sealant on the cill at both ends, then water can go sideways, and enter the property. Looks like some body has already had a go at this problem before looking at those bits glued on.

Spend your money on something else.

Black pudding surely

I might be wrong, but I think the krypton factor did it first.

Ok, well, if you don't want to put a new ledger board in ! ( 2 no. 7x2 nailed together would make a 7x4 ) Add some more fixings to what you have, you could also add some scraps of timber to the side of your joists, abutting the 3x2 so it can't physically rotate out again.

I think I would be tempted to use a new ledger board the same depth as your floor joists, and use joist hangers, doubles if you need to sister any joists.

Megalomaniacs generally don't.

Those pictures, remind me of the Krypton factor round. Do you know what it is yet?

Photo's , age , type of property would help.

Looks fine to me.

Just cement the ridge tiles back on.

It's just an estimate based on experience, lots of variables of course, you might work 12 hour days in summer.

If you have no time scale, then my estimates are irrelevant really, but I would think with 3 men you could install trusses, felt, baton and tile a simple roof in a week.

Forgetting maths and labour, it depends on how long you want the job to take, trusses 1 week and the cut roof 3 weeks.

Without knowing the state of the leadwork, I'd say that roof could last another 20-30 yrs with a bit of TLC.

Trusses all the way for me, simpler, quicker, and Velux or similar companies do skylights 55cm wide by different lengths, so no need to double up trusses.

That Velux install has been done by an amateur, clueless.

Exactly

No excuse for that sort of work.
