I have a double garage with a flat, corrugated cement/asbestos roof. This is quite old and leaks extensively. I've tried sealant at the joints but without much success, leading me to think that some of it may have become porous. Last year, while having work done on another flat roof, the contractor offered to brush tar over the garage roof, but this has had little effect.
I had a roofer look at this recently and his suggestion was a wooden framework first, followed by a plywood deck then several layers of roofing felt, in effect a flat roof built on top of the existing one. His quote for this was, I felt, far too much, and I wondered if there might not be a better/less expensive way forward. Any ideas?
Regards, and thanks in advance
