hi all, passing roofer (was doing a job down the road) collared me as I was driving to work today, and pointed out the cement which holds the topmost tiles which go over the point of the roof (IIRC he said "ridge tiles") was breaking away. As soon as he showed me, I could see he wasn't having me on. There are strips of cement that have fallen down the roof.
What's the implications - long term of this. Does it need fixing now, this month, before next winter ?
What surprised me was when I asked him how much he'd want to do the job, he said 80ukp, which struck me as very low - to remove and replace the cement ...
Anyway I was late for work, so I didn't get a chance to grill him, but wondered what the groups opinon is. I've got an "L"-shaped bungalow, and the two lines of tiles are about 20metres in total.
On the basis that I don't have a head for heights, looks like I'll have to get someone to do it.
I'm in the midlands btw
thanks in advance
