Errors in the installation of corrugated roofing on the roof
The basic details to consider when renovating can be found in this article. These are the basic points and I believe that they will help you in choosing the right company for the reconstruction of the roof, even in the present time of many reconstructions thanks to the subsidies from the renovation plan called obnovdom.sk
Watch the details on the roof
- Sheathing of the chimney
- roof sheathing to dormers
- connection of the dormers to the roofing
- installation of the gutter system and rainwater downpipes
- selection of suitable lee rails
- correct installation of snow barriers
- minimising the use of visible farmer’s cramp
- ventilation of the roofing ridge
- the method and height of ventilation of the ventilated part of the roof
- correct installation and use of locking tapes in the implementation of the chute
- connection of the plaster of the dormer to the roof sheathing
The amount of mistakes that are made in the implementation of roofs, so those mistakes are already accumulated from the implementation of the roof truss.
Incorrect preparation will cause the following errors
- incorrect connection of the eaves sheet to the waterproofing (very common mistake)
- detail in the gutter and protection of the contralata in the gutter with insurance waterproofing
- the use of the correct protective grilles in the eaves area
It is very difficult to follow the above mentioned boring details, which you have to pay attention to, when you make the roof yourself and want it to be of 100% quality. This path is very difficult and it is possible that you will miss a detail and that will make you regret it. Therefore, I recommend that you find a proven implementation company and discuss these details and demand that the correct details are followed or that you know their design. Obviously, many mistakes are made mainly because the executor, wants the roof to do its installation as quickly as possible, every detail costs him delays and reduces his profitability of the contract. You can’t care about that, because you want to have a roof on your house without repairs for at least twenty years. You can also use the service of a building supervisor or consult with us. We have the experience and will be happy to advise you. Just leave a message in the comment section of this article. In the attached gallery you will find a freshly renovated roof of a residential house in the Dolný Kubín district. There are a lot of defects on it so please take a close look at the photos. This is exactly how a roof must not be realized. It was a waste of money. It is only a matter of time before the residents of this house have to deal with complaints
Risk of complaint renewdom.sk
- condensation and leakage around the chimney due to improperly implemented chimney cladding
- leakage into the roof sheathing in the area of the leeward battens, because they are anchored with farmer’s screws and are not properly connected to the roofing at all
- in the dormer area, the roof covering is not pulled up to the perimeter wall at a sufficient height and there is no profile for the flashings
- the dormer has lower glass and there were not used safety expansion tapes in the joints of the folded sheets
