Hi there everyone,
I live in a cottage that dates from the early 19th century.
It was in reasonably good condition when we moved in, but as you've probably experienced yourselves, very old in terms of fixtures, fittings etc.
Several really good tradesmen have worked on various aspects : plastering, rendering and the roof.
I have done as much as I can on things, but until recently I ran my own business and worked extortionate hours.
Now that has moved along a bit, I am taking lot more time to really comb over everything that needs doing.
The pitched roof had a lot of work that remedied all the immediate problems. One of which was condensation.
However, if I post some of photos, could someone give me a little pointer as to whether or not I'm over analysing things on a quite and old roof, please?
I would really appreciate it as I'm not critcising tradesmen who have been, I could do with some objective help?
Thanks
Niven
