So usually the shaft running through the roof is fixed and the cock sits inside the shaft allowing it to spin so the leak should be around the shaft which I suppose you could use some decent mastic or perhaps lead sealant.

If it wasn’t for the second pic I would have said the laminate was contaminated inside the glass as it looks just like it, but yes as Alexander said it’s something to help with the cold bridging/insulation.

I know you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover and I might be wrong to judge from a tiny picture, but here we have a classic checkatrade roofer with ten thousand fake positive reviews coming along to slap a load of plastic on your house and not even finish the job properly for cash. The fact...

Absolute w4nk finish. Only quick fix way is to bang a 9mm flat board against that wall and up to the soffit or the birds are gonna have a field day in there.

I saw brokeback mountain once. I think that was about camping.

Cant you just re mortar the verge?

No rush maybe get it done before the winter kicks in.

The 25mm will eventually pop off. You’ll have to use the 32mm ones.

It’s called a bodge. Only certain people can get this. They have spurs on their boots.

As woody says, a metre up of breathable and some trays see that roof out for another 10 years. That’s as long as there aren’t any other issues though.

Those are screw down timber supported glazing bars instead of snap down. You can’t get those anymore. The nearest alternative would be a sunwood 50mm screw down timber supported glazing bar. The difference would be they come with a bead to cover the screws that hammers in place. I don’t have a...

There is no way you’ll be able to do that off a ladder mate.
