Hello,
Thank you in advanced for your help with this, I really appreciate it.
After a small roof leak, I removed numerous clay (not concrete) tiles and found a wet patch with a clay colour.
With no other water present, I can only assume it came through the tile. The tiles did look very old, so I've replaced 9 tiles around it. (also replaced a couple nearby that were broken in two)
Question 1:
There is rip in the felt (it feels similar to shed roofing felt). It's easy to feel off bits of it. But does it truly need replacing given there are no other leaks?
Should I do something about this rip?
Question 2:
The bottom part of roof has a different felt that is not tar. I thought it was strange that it's raised at the bottom, such that any water in there could pool (in theory). But we've never had a problem. So perhaps this is a non issue? (showing the neighbours flat roof in the back as 'level')
Thank you,
Mj
