  • In this video I'm back at my place doing some more roof tiling. I tile away from the chimney stack and get most of the dormer tiled in too.
    Also the dry ridge system is fitted and some more courses of tiles are put around the curve. I'm really pleased with how this is looking. And I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    I've replaced countless hip joints like this where the muck fails after a few years and due to the tiles being flat, as you know with your laps on lead, water works it's way sideways as it goes down the roof. A bonding gutter, bonding tray, or even better, running through off of nextdoors tile courses as its the same tile!!
    I hate to be negative, I've almost deleted this a few times as You’ve been so helpful during my lead journey over the last 3 years , but it's a shoddy way to have joined to next doors. Unless there is some kind of secret gutter underneath it, too?

      Hi Roy to be honest I’ve had a few comments about this joint from other subscribers too. I was in the hands of my tiler and this is the way he’s done it. I trust him and I know he does a good job and is very neat and tidy too. We go back a long way. I’ve done his lead work for the last 15 years. But all of these comments have got me thinking maybe the bonding tray would have been a better solution.

      It's the correct way with a bonding gutter

    Lovely job, stuart. i can see why you put ridges up next door, so you can keep your 100mm gauge to the top, i like third round hips better. The only thing i would change is the sweeping hip, i would use 10mm laths to bring the tile of the membrane only concrete tiles will transfer moisture onto the membrane, the old felt was most likely bitumen based so probably works better if you need to nail directly to the board.

    That looks awesome Stuart. You can do my roof any day.
    Is it possible you can show us how he does the curved roof tiles?

    could have just copied next doors gauge and the tiles would meet up, I personally use an eave batten at the top, flipped 90 degrees, still, looks suberb and that roof will easily see you out! top job.

    Hey Stuart nice looking Roof. Are the tiles made of concrete?
    Are you nailing each tile into the battens or do some hook over the corresponding batten. I’ve done 1 ceramic tile roof here in Massachusetts where I live and we fastened it with stainless screws, leaving some play for the material to move.

    • @slbleadworks
      @slbleadworks  3 місяці тому

      Yes the tiles are concrete. I’d prefer clay but my budget wouldn’t run to that.
      Every fifth course is nailed. And the rest are hooked onto the batten .
      Thanks for watching.

    How come you run a ridge up the party join why not just tile in to the neighbours ?

    • @slbleadworks
      @slbleadworks  3 місяці тому

      This was the way my roofer done it for me. But since the vid was posted I’ve been getting lots of messages telling me alternative methods.

    • @slbleadworks
      @slbleadworks  3 місяці тому +1

      It has been getting lots of negative comments. It’s just the way my roofer has joined to next door. But yes there’s loads of roofs that have been done the same way around here. I’d say 7 out of 10 like this.

    What’s with the chem trails in your sky? The English weather is bad enough as it is. Ever since they started overwhelming our skies it’s just been raining consistently.

    • @slbleadworks

      They are not usually that visible. But there’s so many planes up there.

      @slbleadworks  3 місяці тому

      No we only had it felted a few years ago. Maybe once the felt fails and we’ve managed to save some money.

    No no no no! wtf you put a half round ridge up your roof!!! How ugly, spoils everything, put a secret gutter in!! Spoils the whole roof that for me. I’m a fully qualified roofer, and the rest of it looks ok but unless you live in wales you don’t run a ridge up your roof ! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

    • @slbleadworks
      @slbleadworks  3 місяці тому

      Just the way my roofer joined onto next door. I must admit it is getting lots of negative comments. But most roofs around here have been done in the same way.

    • @yorkshiresfinest6102

      Your roofer should know better it's wrong and deep down. He knows it. Lazy work is that do it right man ffs.

    Ruined the job , why haven't you installed a bonding gutter, ridge down the partition wall is wrong just completely wrong sort it out it's a proper cowboy builder move.

    • @slbleadworks

      This was the way my roofer finished the join. Loads of roofs around my area have been finished in the same way.
