The roof
A brick-and-tile-hung house in Ripley needing a complete new roof. With the old covering off, the joists needed correcting before the new roof could go on.
What Shane's team did
The joists were corrected, then Celotex insulation and boarding went in for practicality. High quality breathable membrane and eave supports followed, then treated timber battens and the new rustic red Redland 49 interlocking tiles.
The roof was finished with dry ridge and dry verge systems and new fascia at the gable. Photos show the rafters and membrane mid-job and the finished gable with the scaffold still up.
“Lovely customers over in Ripley, complete new roof. Finished with rustic red Redland 49 tiles. Eave supports, high quality breathable, treated timber battens, corrected joist, Celotex and boarding for practicality, dry ridge systems, dry verge systems. Onto the next one.”
Reviews from Ripley and Send
Outstanding Service from Shane at McDermott Home Improvements
Shane did a fantastic job replacing the tiles on our roof. He went above and beyond throughout the entire process, even coming out in the evening on his birthday to help resolve a very tricky situation. Most builders would have walked away, but Shane handled everything calmly, professionally, and with real commitment. His team were punctual, respectful, and completed the work exactly within the agreed timeframe. Truly exceptional service and highly recommended.
Flexible and Friendly Roofers
Shane was flexible when coming to quote and carrying out the work, he was easy to communicate with before, during and after the work. Shane and his colleagues were friendly, good fun and knowledgeable. Work was carried out over a few days. They tidied up thoroughly at the end of each day.
