Re-slated roof with new roof windows
About this job
This roof, backing onto woodland, was stripped and re-covered. New breathable membrane and battens went on first, with new roof windows fitted into the slope, then the slates were loaded out and fixed course by course around them.
The finished roof sits flush around the windows, with a clean line where it meets the lower slope.
