Hi folks, need some advice please.
Have a kitchen extension that was built 2.5 years ago. Due to bad weather I have had a build up of water pools in one corner of the velux window, a 4m span across where the roof meets the vertical wall, and a random spot in the middle.
On inspection the roof pitch is not the 18 degree BUT 10-11 degrees, and simple tyvec membrane and large marley modern tiles. This was signed off by Building Control.
What are my options in terms of: Are Building Control at fault or partial blame for the issue? If so can they be liable to foot some of the cost of a repair?
Also what repair would you suggest on a roof this bad? I was thinking a specialist tile like Decra and a better membrane, is this the only answer? I dont think I can raise the pitch to 15 degrees without going above the level of the upstairs windows which could be expensive.
Would love some advice please....
