:cry: the work finished 2 months ago but scaffolding is still in place around my house. As s result I am not able to take my husband into the garden as he is wheelchair bound. I've no other firm of access. The builder had sent official letters etc. No response. I contacted him as well and...

the adjoining semi has matching roof. It's Bn converted into flats. They hv had few problems in the past but doesn't seem bad. Semi next to us had one half new and old in the adjoining semi. I've just looked at houses on our street on Google earth.clarity is amazing. Right mixed bunch of...

Tks. Just about all the houses on our road have new roof. All houses are semis.I'm assuming they are concrete. Yes that is why my husband would rather repair then replace. Tiles are not crumbling but hv moved about I think. So Redland 49 would spoil the character of house bit not the street...

Sorry. The above pics are all of the front valley. The side valley is on pics posted on 10th Friday.

Really Appreciate yr honest reply. I'm going into loft today to investigate timber. B4 that I had no thought of new roof. Also now that the wind has gone , there has Bn no water ingress and it has rained several times. According to my husband ,The estate agent said (jan 2013) that there would b...

Latest developments. As I mentioned b4 I had a quote of £1600 for valley repair. This was from the only roofer who bothered to come and give me a quote. I have to say that in my panic after finding""wet timber""in the loft I gave him a call and asked him to give me a quote for the whole roof. He...

Sorry meant to say that the insulation is on the floor of the loft n goes all the way to the soffit.

Thank you for that. Much appreciated. I don't know what's Valley made up of now. I'm led to believe that b4 we moved in some one had done bad job. Tks for tip re how to attach pics.i spent long time trying to do that then gave up. Will try now. However if it's just the front Valley how come...
