Hi Alan, as much as I would like to say "stuff the roof", I can't do that unfortunately. I saw the state of it yesterday when I went to see how they were getting on with the Valley at the front. It doesn't look good I'm afraid. Yesterdays work cost me £850, but at least I won't have to have it done again when the rest of the roof gets done. The guy doing the work said that it might last a few months or, it could last a year or so, but he couldn't say how much life expectancy was left in it. Either way it's going to need doing. The last thing I need is for it to have a slow leak & ruin all of the loft insulation, ceilings etc. My main worry is that because they've been working on the roof, it may have disturbed something further along.
The tenant that lived there until recently passed away back in January, so I've spent a shed load of money refurbishing the place with new PVC doors, windows etc & gave the whole place a lick of paint with general repairs ready for the new tenants to move in. I don't want to allow things to deteriorate and would rather keep on top of any maintenance as required, it is after all an investment.
It just upsets me to think that it's all systems go to build my dream car & then something like this happens. It could have been worse, but it's still not a good feeling
cheers...Nige
