Hi, I wonder if you can help as do not have knowledge about this subject and posting on behalf of my sister.
She has a small 2 bedroomed house that has a small dark grey slate roof that runs along the whole width of the front of the house at 1st floor level just above the front door and lounge.
The roofers have installed new dark grey slates (ie a new roof) and what I believe is a breathable membrane under the tiles which comes out and falls into the gutter. The problem is that the membrane shows and is bright green... so it looks awful. (IE two or three inches between the bottom of the roof and the gutter. They are saying this is normal which I cannot believe and have never seen this anywhere else.
1 Should the membrane go into the gutter and therefore show?
2 if so should they have used a different colour (ie dark grey)
3 is it possible to cut the membrane back so that it is not exposed?
many thanks, Rob
