My new house has fairly extensive woodworm underneath and within the loft there’s woodworm in various areas spread around but it doesn’t look too bad in the loft. I’m getting a local guy round soon to spray my timbers with woodworm treatment including in the loft. My options are to leave the...

I've had the latest roof for 4 years and when I'm in my loft looking upwards, I can see water droplets and small water runs which appear to be on top/outside of the breathable roofing felt rather than on the loft side. Is that normal? There's no ventilation up there and in winter I've...

Why have I got watermarks underneath each of the joins in my tiles? Other roofs don't seem to have them. :cautious:

I always presumed not and have never been charged but someone I know has told me not to presume because I might end up with a bill for a call out. I’m having a few roofers round at the mo to quote me on re-roofing, I’ve checked the website of one and that says free quotes but the other...

I’ve had a roofer re-cut tiles in my valleys areas as they were bodged originally and I was getting leaks, this is what he’s produced but I’ve noticed that the centre of the valleys now are not laid centrally to the lead. If you look at the bottom picture of how it used to be there’s like a...

The new felt has been put on the peaked area of my roof. I haven’t had an explanation why my roofer has done the two sides differently but I know someone who says that he has roof problems due to white breathable felt being laid at the bottom of his roof and that roofers have told him...
