Roofing hip dormer


Dee

Recommended Posts

Reusing concrete plain tiles. 

Building a hip roof dormer and thinking ahead about tiling. 

Having great difficulty finding reclaimed bonnet, valley and tile and a half.... Any alternatives? 

What about laced valleys? 

When I make good the main roof upto the dormer cheeks do I carry the felt up the cheeks walls .?

Reclaimed bonnets are usually not had to find.

Valley tiles are probably an issue because you are never going to find them in the angle you want.

You could have an open lead or GRP valley or a mitred valley.

Reclaimed tile and a half are like hens teeth - its a much better bet to buy new, they will blend in fairly well and at the nd of the day nobody is looking at the roof that closely unless it is leaking!
