Hi donmaico Two weeks ago Everest painted the roof white. Unfortuantely we still have the same problem, with loud noises. The noise occurs during daylight and darkness, and is obviously caused by temperature changes. I have never figured out why the noise can be so loud, and what actually makes...

Hi BrianDIY Everest told me that there is someone in Sussex with the same problem, so that could be you. They have opened up the roof, relaid the decking and the grp cover, tried venting, and yesterday painted the roof white. Have you had any success yet? UselessMan

Hello donmaico, I am having the same noise issues and my roof was painted white yesterday in the hope that this would fix the problem. Have you had any luck in resolving the problem? Is your roof with Everest? I have to say that they are trying very hard to fix the noise issue, but we have...

I don't know what makes a construction a 'warm' construction. My roof used to have a felt cover. I think they took the roof back to the joists, under which there is insulation, and put on new decking. They had to use screws that were about a foot long. February was an awful month, probably the...

Hi. Our supplier painted our flat roof yesterday with white heat reflective paint. The roof was still making noises in the afternoon/evening, but we will give some time to see if it makes a difference. Today has been too cool and sunless to tell. Have you had any new attempts to fix your...

Thanks for your response. My roof was painted with reflective white paint yesterday, and I'll let you know if there is any improvement. Are we allowed to communicate with our own email addresses? I am now aware of 5 people with the problem, but need to get updates on what they try, and if they...

Exactly where are you with this problem, then? My supplier is still trying to fix it, so I am prepared to give them a bit longer, but as I now find others with the same problem and no cure, I am more concerned than I was. We need an understanding of the problem, and a cure. Do you feel that you...

Thanks. Thermal expansion and slip layer are new terms for me, so I will be looking them up. My supplier has given a lifetime guarantee for the roof, but I would rather not have something that can fracture.

It is! I meant to say 'paint the roof white (not wet)', but I don't expect it to work. I am now aware of 3 of us with this problem, in Leeds, Sussex, and myself in Hertfordshire, and no-one seems to be fixing it, and I can't find a governing body that shoudl be concerned about it. My supplier...

Hi. I also have an Everest roof, fitted in 2010, and have the same problem. they have visited several times but don't seem to know what the answer is. They have tried a few things, but nothing has worked. What have they suggested to you? Does the manager come from the St Albans depot?

I believe that it is a cold deck. The supplier has tried fitting 'mushroom' air vents on the roof, but it made no difference. No-one seems to be exactly sure what part of the roof is making the noise. The grp cover on the roof is slate grey, so they are going to paint it wet when the weather is...

Hi. Have you had any luck with this problem? I have exactly the same noise issue, and the supplier so far has not been able to fix it. The noise is incredible inside the house, but not so bad on the roof itself. It is all caused by changes in temperature.

Hi, have you had any luck with your problem. I have exactly the same issue, and noted that there is another report "I had the extension built 2 years ago and opted for fibre glass instead of felt roofing because it has a longer life span.Trouble is i am getting the most unbelievably loud banging...
