Hi all, I thought I would join a forum for DIY.

I've been getting damp in the bedroom and after investigating in the loft it looks like the felt at the eaves has rotted. I have two questions to ask.
First, is it feasible to fit Eaves Trays on a Yorkshire Grey slate roof?

And, if I were to remove a few slates from the point of dampness up to the third row, how can the top slate be made good?

Thanks folks, any help appreciated. :mrgreen:
 
He could not hit the hook because he still had his sunglasses on :roll: Alistair those slates can easily be 4' square at the bottom and you cannot use a slate ripper. You could probably just slide the eaves trays in, but why is water getting into your roof ?
