Fixing camera to flat roof or to tiles

[bsr]

Hi

I have some construction work starting soon. It's a bungalow with a flat roof bay. The front of the house is busy with guttering, lighting etc and I've identified the best mounting points for a dome CCTV camera as either:

1. On the bottom row of concrete roof tiles
2. On the lead flat roof of the bay

Any suggestions how I could mount to either? If I glued the camera to the lead with lead mate would that have suitable resistance against wind uplift?

Thanks

Are you going to be recording the builders?

No the camera is to cover the drive, gate, where the skip will go etc. insurance company told me I'm at a higher risk of burglary during work due to the big hole in the house. Makes sense!

Is it temporary? If so you could screw it to a plank and leave that on the flat roof. As you say, LeadMate... otherwise a bracket to/around the fascia/soffit?

Yes temporary. A plank sounds like a good idea, I have half a gravel board somewhere...

and stick a couple of concrete blocks on the plank to stop it moving in the breeze...........
