The correct way.

And how long would it of taken you? 90 quids worth of your time?

The flat are will be on sheathing felt, and will come up easily once you get under it. The upstands will probably be on a feestanding kerb wired with EML to stop the asphalt slumping, pull the kerb out complete once you have stripped the flat up. And there's no way i would use EPDM as a patio...

Its fine.

Ponding won't do it the slightest harm whatsoever.

Top advice from Glasgow, i'd give the man a job. I'd just fit a GRP trim instead of a drip though.

Put a proper roof on it then.

There is no doubt whatsoever that a copper roof is everlasting, and looks the dogs 8) But the state of the economy is killing it. This is a recent installation of ours Looks like copper? It is Copper Veral, we can fit this for £65 m2 Copper sheet is £125 m2, client just...

Nail, head.

Well, i shall keep this brief, i come from an installation background (near 30 years). We as a company install pretty much every type of roof you can think of. except EPDM. Why? Because we've seen it fail prematurely, 16000m2 on Brent Cross shopping centre being the biggest failure. Its...

Because they're educated. The rubber will last for ever....the bonding agents carry no such guarantee. Its made for people who don't know how to roof properly. :wink:

I'd be more concerned he's been tight with the Gel coat, you can see the fibres quite easily. And the detail to the wall looks ****e as well.

Drawing is correct, and the foil face is the vapour barrier, hence the need to tape the joints.

Subject to regular maintainence, yes :P

T Pren have been about for years, and the only failure i've seen was due to donuts putting a boot through them when cleaning gutters. HMT mentions capping the exposed neoprene , that sounds like best practise to me. 8) Personally if i was doing it it would be in HT felt with a lead chute at...

If the kit quality is fragile, you need to keep the weight down, so deck it then felt shingles. The shelter you picture looks to have tanalised shiplap and fairly new. It will split once its done a seasonal change.

Foil faced insulation foil down onto joists, fix 12mm ply or OSB3 on top, you then have your deck. Tape joints in foil underide with appropriate tape. Bear in mind this will raise deck height and deeper fascias will be required.
