You've got a Compton garage. The roof is approximately 15years old. You're looking
to have the roof sheets replaced, like for like again. It will be profile 5 fiber cement
sheets, the same as what's already on it at the moment.
They're non asbestos so we wont need to worry about that.
And it's very straightfoward. It's a case of basically just taking the old ones off
and replacing them with new ones. And it takes no longer than a day.
So far we've taken half of the roof off, and we're about to take the other half of the
roof off which is going to take probably another 5 or 10 minutes to do.
Then we're going to basically put the new sheets on, line them up, and then start attaching
them to the steel trusses.
The new roof is a very similar material to what we've just replaced - slightly more advanced.
The customer reckons that the roof that we've taken off is 15 years old. So, I would be
disappointed if you never got at least another 15 years.
Hold on, hold on Jim.
I'm waiting for Jim to drill a hole up through the roof and once he's done that I will push
the bolt through the hole and Jim will attach the avon clip to the underside.
I shall then drill from above and he'll hold it in place underneath to make sure the roof
sheet is securely fixed to the truss.
Just about to go and see the customer now and make sure he's happy with everything.
No reason why he shouldn't be. But like I've already said everything's gone to plan so,
yeah, very pleased with it.
I am very pleased. Very pleased.
What a difference. I can't get away with the difference.
