Westhill Road

Water had been leaking into this roof for may years, making the rafters weak and sagging.

Once uncovered, its not unusual to find rot and bad workmanship. This roof had both and needed replacement rafters and a new perlin. We used a multi layer blanket originally designed for survival suits.

This new Ashlar wall is a structural support for the roof rafters.

Insulation is a wise investment when doing any new work to the inside of buildings,.This is a special multi-layered blanket quilt which gives very effective insulation.

New fascias and soffits were fitted here. The fascias were clad in plastic as requested by the home owner. On the roof I use a breathable membrane.

Curved top dormer window, which was eventually lead clad and had a purpose made aluminium double glazes structural window inserted. This was one of my design projects on a loft and roof refurbishment that the owner just gave me free rain to come up with a finished product.

This window is a structural part of the dormer window.
