just a thought but do redland regent go on a 15 degree pitch i thought 22degree minimum :?:

we use osb to and if your roof dosnt leak osb is fine wbp ply will do the same job tho purely down to choice

airflow which is being created is not going into roof space as as it should be so what i meant was airflow not required in floor joists and as it isnt going into roof space and creating no problems simply stop it going into floor joists using solid soffit would do this

soloution is simple the soffit vents are not required so replace soffit with solid soffit and not vented no airflow (which is not required) no draft also insulate sofft when replacing it ths would almost certainly fix the prob p.s silicone seal where soffit butts wall to stop drafts blowing up

he could still drop the guage on the tiles and fit into next doors he would just have more courses on his own low level after droping 7 course half inch he is back to square 1 just an extra course or 2 or 3

it depends on age of roof to be honest if roof is only a few years old for example i would not take out first row of tiles but if a bit older definatley must be done the same way as previous post also depends if builder is going to replace old fascia board or just capp over the top which is much...

it might be eaves protection that you need to cut to 330mm lengths yourself i have known this before but without seeing picture or invoice not sure

if you dont have a brick gable end then is it a timber barge board if so much easier to fit undercloack just nailed in to place have you got any pics

something of that size you could form yourself 4x2 timber and a measure twice cut once rule dont think you would get trusses for a porch 4.5m wide by 1.8m spar length much cheaper to do it yourself or get a joiner in someroofes would do it to included in roof price

spray foam very very bad did 2 rooves last year that had been sprayed instead of losing usual amount of breakage you would expect to lose on standard terrace 25-30% we lost 75% of slates please pleaseplease get a reroof and why were we reroofing a sprayed roof i hear you ask IT WAS LEAKING

as last post take out botom 2-3 rows of tiles and battens buy felt support trays (can be bought at most builders merchants )that will do away with the ply and the dpc then replace felt and battens and put existing tiles back on alot easier than it sounds to be honest but would advise scaffold...

sry my friend didnt mean to be so depressing but putting on the top layer is pretty difficult but you could also take of old roof yourself reboard no problems at all and poosibly even underlay it im a roofer of 20 year and as i said a good roofer should bedone in 2 days so if you bought...

that will definatley leak my friend no shadow of a doubt you need a length of lead underneath the velux flashing that should extend down the roof to the water mark on the tiles undr velux 9 inch lead should be sufficient (do not pay buildertill this is done it will leak i guarentee it) :shock:

that pitch definatly looks more than 22 degree to me i would use the rosmary tiles you have already bought and just give the tiles 4 inch cover that would mean putting the tile battens on at around 3 and a half inch guage but it will look and last alot longer than a felt roof if you do felt the...
