Signs of deterioration on a roof almost always mean that the covering, be it slate or tile, has run the natural course of its life.
Patching up here and there is literally no more than a stop-gap exercise that usually just costs you more in the long run.
The only sensible course of action is to re-tile the roof, replacing the underlying felting and bring your existing roof up-to-date with new guidelines and codes of practice.
Your roof bears the brunt of the British weather, and is your home's major protection against damage from sun wind and rain.
Traditional built up felting used to weather flat roofs has been around for many years & served commercial & domestic flat roofing extremely well.
With the other types of membranes now on the market e.g., EPDM rubber roofing & GRP glass fibre roofing, many people feel that because they are new technology, they are better than traditional felt roofing, and have asked are these replacements for built up felting.
But at Brian Parker Services with our 40 years plus experience as a flat roof contractor Wokingham, we feel they are just new options & will undoubtedly cost you more money to fit and maintain in the short and long term.
We undertake all types of lead roofing work from stepped lead flashings to box gutters, complete roofs on listed buildings and churches, to lead valley gutters, dormer and bay windows and run out valleys.
Our skilled lead work can accommodate all types of work ranging from bossing to welding.
We use both traditional and modern specialist methods and adhere to a strict code of lead working practice.
Any contractor who ignores these crucial guidelines can result in costly reworks having to be done.
Having damaged joints between your bricks or masonry repointed prevents water penetration and the consequential damage.
Most chimney damage or decay starts from the top down.
The top cement flaunching between you and your neighbour's chimney pots should be laid in one continuous section without cracks/split.
The cement flaunching should be cambered so rainwaters runs off the chimney to the outer edge.
When repairs are required they should be made with the correct materials by an experienced contractor using appropriate tools and safety systems.
However, the most important mistake that is continually made by builders/property maintenance experts and some roofing contractors is to use modern sand/cement mortar which sets extremely hard and they use it to re-point on top of the existing lime mortar.
The type of bricks & lime mortar that are often found together are nearly always found to have been re-pointed with modern mortars.
Old buildings are nearly all of a lime mortar construction and allow for much more movement, thus allowing the brickwork and lime mortar to breathe.
