Hi all, as stated I've got a leaking roof. We had a roofer (cowboy) refurb our semi top dorma roof. They took off the ridge tiles, roof tiles above the fibreglassed flat roof then re battened, re feltetd and then put the roof and ridge tiles back. Well all I can say is what a bodge. The ridge tiles were just dumped back ontop and badly pointed, the chimney lead was painted with fiber glass and the tiles were all crooked. Anyway after a few months i noticed a water mark appear about the center light fitting. I stuck my head in the loft and looked between the joints and could see a drip coming from a gap in the flat roof roofing boards. We had a the flat roof fibreglasses about 8 months ago and the roofer used 600 wait glass matting and it seemed like a good solid job but it does pool a lot of water. My main question is, could the fibreglass split and crack in this small amount of time and could be leaking water onto the old felt roof beneath and then leak through this or could water be leaking from the badly painted ridge tiles or chimney lead work ?? I've got some pics to upload which will give you a laugh !!
Any advice would be greatly appropriated
