LIFE EXPECTANCY OF YOUR ROOF
Within this part of your roof report we will provide the life expectancy of your roof. How many years before we expect your roof needs a full replacement.
CONDITION OF RIDGING & VERGES
This check will inspect any mortar on the roof of your property.
​
The Ridge is what sits on top of your roof and these are usually Triangular or C shaped.
​
The Verges are the ends/sides of your roof.
The ridge and/or verges are usually the parts of a roof that fail first this because the weather tends to hit these points more.​
By having an inspection of your roof every 1-5 years you can maintain your roof preventing costly repairs or renewal.
CONDITION OF CHIMNEYS
This check will examine the following:
Chimney pots
Flaunching, also known as chimney cap\crown
Chimney Stack, looking for erosion in any bricks, stone or cement works.
Flashings (usually lead
Back Gutter (These tend to leak after a certain age)
CONDTION OF ALL LEAD
We will check all the lead on your roof for expansion tears and any age related erosion.
​
Lead on your roof should last anywhere between 150-200 years if it has been installed properly.
When lead is not installed properly the heat of the sun can make the lead expand and in the winter the lead retracts, eventually causing a split\tear in the lead.
ROOF WINDOWS/SKY LIGHTS
Within this check we will check for age and weather related damage to your roof windows\lights.
​
Often over many years moss and leaves can get trapped behind the window flashings or within the back gutter tray of the window eventually trapping water. This water will cause a damp patch within this area which will begin to rot and weaken the battens\timbers of your home.
