Thankyou woody. I havent slept all night worrying. Yes i dont know who is working for who at all. We have had scaffold on it through a window company and didnt have all this trouble. It is a well respected roofer, guild of master craftsmen and ll that, but he was really sharp on me on the...

Heres it a bit closer up. Someone just mentioned….do you think he might be worried about the weight? And also, unrelated, shouldnt the scaffold people come round and look before the day? I am too scared to ask the roofer now! Wish i hadnt paid a deposit,but he never mentioned this.

This is it from a distance from the front amd back. The chimney is hard to get to. It has got bar things holding it up though. Heres front and back

It was built as a proper balcony,The balcony has wooden joists and is on top of a garage. It then has plywood. Then it has a rubber membrane sheet thing, then thick black rubber tiles which i think were called eurotiles

Thankyou Swwils. I have paid a small deposit and received an email with the date for the scaffolding on. I replied agreeing to the date, and asked if a member of their own team will be there to oversee the scaffold erection, make sure they put down a weight spreader of some sort on our balcony ...

Shall i ask to see the disclaimer first do you think? The roofer was basically saying that they cant guarantee that they wont damage our balcony but theyve done it many times and are careful. Is that right they cant disclaim damage by negligence? My partner thinks I am being overcautious but a...

Any idea what I should do? Do some scaffolders have some sort of insurance for damage then please? Not sure how it works. Thanks

Hi about to have a chimney stack reduction The roofers use a firm of scaffolders They need to go on our balcony The roofing company which is pretty well established said we need to sign a disclaimer for any damage Is this normal? Thanks

Hi there Have just arranged for a chimney stack reduction The roofer organizes the scaffolding and it needs to come off a balcony Is it normal to have to sign a disclaimer re any damage to the balcony? Thanks

I wouldnt dare mention it! My friend is great great friends with this bloke, and socialises with him. Shall try n get out of it elegantly. Their work looks okay to me (or maybe its covered up better!))

No, it was a chap who has been used by friend. Did a nice job at theres. Maybe he just doesnt like me!

Thankyou. I dont even think I trust him to do the remedial work tbh. Might have to just write that one off.

Thankyou. Is the ‘dressing of the lead‘ where its sort of battered in? Or is the dressing the cut…i want to sound like i know what i am talking about!

Jus had a roofer in, who has just done a few days out of a scheduled 3 week job. Has just mortared (or remortared) a bottom hip tile. we are having expensive scaffolding up as he is due to do a load more. I know hip tiles arent pretty, but just wondered what you thought of this? He did the...

Thankyou so much for this,I knew instinctively it looked wrong, I wanted to cry when i saw it. if by dressing you mean making the cuts, i think he did it with a knife on the floor. The end bit you mention, he said he‘d curled it up away from the wall so it goes into the gutter)if that is the bit...

This is how it used to be…
