Another job finished off with a new GRP valley installed where the new extension meets the existing roof.

The valley was formed and weathered using a GRP system, giving a clean and durable detail between the two roof sections.

Always important to get these junctions right, as they’re an area where water can easily become an issue if they’re not properly detailed.

A few photos of the finished work below.

Another little job completed recently.

This one involved removing an old redundant flue pipe that was no longer needed. Once it was out, I stripped the tiles back around the opening, felted and battened it properly, then tiled it back in so the roof was fully weathered again.

It’s always better to repair these properly rather than just covering over a hole and hoping for the best.

With all the wet weather we’ve had recently, now is a good time to check that your roof and guttering are doing their job properly.

Heavy and prolonged rain can quickly highlight issues such as slipped or damaged tiles, leaking valleys, blocked gutters, loose mortar and failing roof details.

If you’ve noticed a leak, damp patch, overflowing guttering, or anything that doesn’t look quite right, it’s always best to get it checked before a small problem turns into a bigger repair.

M.H.M Roofing provides roof repairs, re-roofs, guttering, fascia and soffit work across Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Hertfordshire.

Another roofing project completed by M.H.M Roofing.

This project involved stripping out the existing elevation before constructing a new roof structure using bespoke timber trusses to form the extended roof.

We then installed new breathable membrane and battens before re-tiling the roof and completing the ridge and valley details.

From the structural work right through to the finished roof, everything was completed with careful attention to the existing building and the new extension.

Lead flashing pulling away from the wall

This is a good example of why it’s worth keeping an eye on your roofline.

When lead flashing starts to pull away from the wall, the seal between the roof and the wall is compromised. Water can then get behind the flashing and potentially work its way into the roof structure.

It might look like a small issue from the ground, but left unattended it can develop into a much bigger problem.

Spot something like this on your roof? It’s worth getting it checked before the next heavy rainfall.

Another small repair completed.

The mortar had fallen away at the bottom of the verge where the valley meets it, leaving the area open to the weather.

I’ve cleaned it back, repaired the defective section and repointed it to leave the verge sealed and weatherproof again.

It’s often the small areas like this that can cause problems if they’re left too long.

When roof tiles reach the end of their life

These clay tiles have suffered years of weathering and are now blistered, cracked and starting to crumble.

Once tiles get to this stage, they’re no longer doing the job they’re meant to do. Continuing to patch individual tiles can only go so far when the surrounding tiles are also deteriorating.

This is a good example of why it’s worth keeping an eye on the condition of your roof before small problems turn into bigger ones.

Roof membrane & battens

The membrane and battens are a big part of getting a roof right, even though most of it will never be seen once the slates are on.

Once the breathable membrane is fitted, the battens need to be set out accurately to the correct gauge for the slate being used. Getting that measurement right is important so the slates sit correctly and the laps are maintained throughout the roof.

On this job, the roof is being carefully set out and battened ready for the slating stage.

It might not be the most exciting part of a new roof, but getting the preparation right makes a big difference to the finished roof.
