Our insurance with Saga is up for renewal.
This year there is a new endorsement which says that any flat roof must be inspected at least every 8 years.
Presumably this means that you will need a certificate from a builder or roofer signed and dated. Otherwise how do you prove that it was inspected?
While I can see that regular inspection is a good thing (as with all other aspects of a house) this seems to be yet another item where you will have to buy a certificate.
I also wonder what liability said builder or roofer would be taking on when issuing a certificate to say the roof was O.K.
Does anyone currently have to do this, and if so what does it cost?
Cheers
