๐ ๐จ Another Roof Transformation Completed! ๐จ๐
We recently had the privilege of replacing a roof that had been protecting this property since the 1930s! After decades of service, it was time to give this home the modern, durable roofing system it deserves. ๐ชโจ
๐ง Step 1: Removal of Original Blue Bangor Slates
The original Blue Bangor slate roof, which had served the property for many decades, was carefully stripped and removed. This allowed us to fully inspect the roof structure and prepare the property for a complete roofing upgrade. ๐ทโโ๏ธ๐๐ชจ
๐ฒ Step 2: New Pressure-Treated Roof Structure
A brand-new pressure-treated timber roof structure was installed to provide maximum strength, durability, and protection against moisture and decay. This creates a solid foundation designed to support the roof for many years to come. ๐ชต๐๏ธ๐ช
๐ช Step 3: Velux Window Installation
To enhance natural light and improve the living space below, a new Velux roof window was expertly installed. This addition not only brightens the interior but also improves ventilation and adds value to the property. โ๏ธ๐กโจ
๐จ Step 4: Breathable Membrane Installation
A high-quality breathable membrane was fitted across the entire roof area. This modern roofing layer provides excellent weather protection while allowing trapped moisture to escape, helping to prevent condensation and protect the roof structure. ๐ง๏ธโก๏ธ๐จโ
๐ก Step 5: Installation of New Roof Tiles
With the structure, Velux window, and membrane completed, the new roof tiles were expertly installed. The new tiled roof delivers outstanding weather resistance, durability, and a beautiful finish that complements the character of the property. ๐จ๐ โจ
๐บ Step 6: Dry Ridge System
A maintenance-free dry ridge system was installed along the roof ridge. Unlike traditional mortar, this modern system offers superior ventilation, flexibility, and long-term performance while complying with current roofing standards. ๐จ๐ โ
๐ก๏ธ Step 7: Dry Verge System
To complete the installation, a dry verge system was fitted to all gable edges. This provides additional protection against wind uplift and driving rain while delivering a neat, professional finish with minimal maintenance requirements. ๐ฌ๏ธ๐ง๏ธ๐
โญ The Result
A stunning transformation from a roof dating back to the 1930s into a modern, high-performance roofing system. Featuring a pressure-treated roof structure, Velux window, breathable membrane, new roof tiles, dry ridge, and dry verge systems, this property is now protected and future-proofed for generations to come. ๐กโค๏ธโจ
