July 26, 20242 yr Recently had flat dormer roof covering replaced (new insulation, decking and felt layers). Having got up there and had a look I see two areas of possible concern with the works. Best illustrated by the attached photos. In both cases the issue relates to the corners where the flat roof joins the main roof. In the left one, the 'felt' seems to be lifting away from the lead that goes up under the tiles, plus the lead seems to be rather up in the air. In the right one there is what appears to be exposed bitumen surface (selvedge?) - i.e. not covered by mineral granules. Would appreciate any thoughts / observations. Thanks, Bazza
July 26, 20242 yr Hi @ Bazza Any chance of photo a bit further away as well? It helps to get an understanding of the general layout. personally I would like to see at least two foot al the way round to help understand how its meant to be. Good luck Marvin
July 26, 20242 yr Author Couple more photos taken at same time, but zoomed out a bit more. HTH. Would have to get the ladders up again to do more.
July 27, 20242 yr Author And a few more photos giving the overall context. As is clear, the roof falls towards the rear and water runs off at the sides of the rear onto the meain roof.

July 28, 20242 yr As long as there are lead soakers under it all the way up both sides it should be ok
