Velux and roof replacement, Falmouth

Step-by-Step Process:

  1. Stripping & Inspection
    • Removed old roof tiles, battens, and degraded underlay (felt), which had failed and caused leaks.
    • Conducted a full structural inspection to assess any additional damage.
  2. New Roofing Underlay & Battens
    • Installed high-performance breathable felt to enhance moisture control and ventilation.
    • Secured new pressure-treated roofing battens for a stable, long-lasting framework.
  3. Velux Window Installation
    • Fitted two new Velux windows with precision flashings for a weatherproof seal.
    • Ensured optimal positioning for natural light and thermal efficiency.
  4. Internal Finishing
    • Made good the window reveals with new plasterboard for a clean, seamless fit.
    • Skimmed plaster to a smooth, flawless finish, ready for painting.
  5. Tile Installation
    • Cut and laid new Marley Modern roof tiles in a smooth brown finish for a sleek, uniform appearance.
    • Applied expert techniques to ensure durability and weather resistance.
  6. Flashing & Final Details
    • Re-dressed and sealed existing lead flashings over the new tiles for complete waterproofing.

Result: A fully renewed roof with high-performance Velux windows, improved insulation, and a professionally finished interior.
