abuthfer Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Can anybody let me know if this is an issue on a newly retiled roof? There are several tiles which don't seem to follow a straight line and subsequently there are a few tiles which aren't completely interlocked. Is this a problem other than aesthetics. Many thanks.

markc Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 That’s shabby! As a new roof to get the first course wrong isn’t a good sign. Roof also looks to be a very low pitch unless the pic is deceiving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abuthfer Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 @markc the pitch is 12.5, it had the wrong tiles originally. The are replacement tiles supposed to be correct ones for this pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind blown water could be a bigger problem going up the roof than jumping the poor jointing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abuthfer Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) @markc not sure of the overlap, but the tiles are designed for this pitch. I am more worried about the gap, but no water has come in yet and been some heavy rain. That said only been on for less than a week.
