Hi Ree, thanks for reply. I'll get a photo of outside later today. Please see below for the inside felt. Advice would be much appreciated, at least before roofers start removing tiles!

Hi, thanks for replying. They are concrete overlapping tiles, original from 60's. Have tried best to look from ground level outside and can't see a particularly broken or damaged tile. What is your opinion on the quotes, if it is just a tile? Thanks

Thanks for the response. If it helps, the felt is the old style, I'll attach a pic below. Is this still the case? Thanks

Following extreme weather the day before, I discovered a small, dribbling leak coming through some ripped inner felt in my 1960's roof. This felt has been ripped for several years with no leaks. The rip is quite large, the width if two beams and about 3 inches in height. Had 2 roofers quote...

Hi John, thanks very much for lengthy reply. Just had another look at the flexy and I think the angle of the top-down photos makes it look worse. From the side it's not kinked but does take a turn so I will take on your suggestion! The overflow pipe is now out of use as the new flush valve has...

Hello opps, thanks very much for your reply and info. Regarding how they were laid, the below is taken from the invoice. I'm afraid a lot of the terminology is lost on me but might be able to provide some insight: "Stage 1: The existing patio & front step to be dug down to the original...

Hi, I'm having a similar issue with new patio, and company gone AWOL, (https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/standing-water-on-new-patio-trade-company-awol.631051/) Were you able to sort this at all?

Hello all. In Feb this year I had a new patio laid. Everything seemed fine at the time and paid as was happy with the job. Now summer is (finally) starting, the kids have played in the paddling pool on the patio and I've noticed I'm getting standing water, two sections of which are right up...
