saveasteading Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 It is time to form the new openings for skylights, I think 8 of them. The joiner is staying on to do the framing, but we need a roofer to prepare, repair some sarking, then fit the skylights and retrim around with the slates. There will also be gutters and some finishings to do. From Inverness or Elgin people are travelling without any quibble. PM if you prefer to avoid it being too public. Thanks.

Thanks. joiner should be more than capable, if he can't he isn't much of a joiner i'm afraid. strip roof, open it, fit velux and finish, not internally - 2 a day. wouldn't like to do it these days though.

saveasteading Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Absolutely splendid joiner, but says slating is better by a roofer. Or perhaps locally that is simply the expectation. I guess if I was a good joiner I would pick and choose too, and clambering over the roof and cutting slates is not the pleasantest thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
