Roof Maintenance
Most importantly, identify and control roofing problems and maintain the roof effectively. The UK weather is unpredictable and extreme.
Recently, the thermometer hit 400C! Alternatively, in winter, the thermometer can drop to -200C! A difference of over 600C!
Your roof has to endure and withstand the heat in summer and the freezing temperatures in winter. In addition, it has to deal with the rain and the wind.
The best way to keep a roof healthy is through regular maintenance.
Visual Check
A visual check is the cheapest and easiest method of roofing maintenance.
Check the roof from the outside for any defects, such as loose tiles. Also, check for any roofing defects or leaks from the inside.
Contact Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote if you have difficulty looking inside the loft.

Six Parts of the Roof Explained
ROOF REPAIR QUOTE KIRKBY MALZEARD
Contact Buildings and Trust and the Harrogate Maintenance Company here or Telephone Kevin on: 07910 078 060What Are the Various Roof Types?
There are a variety of roof types in the UK. Some, like the gable roof, or more popular than others, such as the mansard.
Roofs are essential for providing structural defense against the elements: wind, rain, snow, and cold.
There are many different roof styles in the UK, and they nearly always fall into the following styles
- Flat roof
- Pitched roof.
Flat roofs are the simplest, but they are not necessarily the best. Although flat roofs possess a very gentle slope to encourage rainwater runoff, they can often be prone to weather conditions and are less efficient at allowing water runoff.
Slight depressions can develop in the flat roof over time where water can collect. This ponding or pooling is very problematic. The collected water will cause deterioration and damage to the roofing materials over time.
Pitched Roof
The slope on pitched roofs facilitates rainwater runoff much better, making them less prone to ponding or pooling water. However, pitched roofs do have disadvantages with another element: wind.
If roofers have installed faulty tiles, the wind can lift the tiles and cause little gaps for water to get inside. The steeper the roof pitch, the more susceptible the roof is to wind damage.
Another disadvantage of a pitched roof is that the cost of more intricate scaffolding for correcting any damage will be greater than of a flat roof.

Gable Roof
A gable is one of the more popular roofs constructed in the UK. It possesses two steep slopes like a V but upside down!
The front and back slopes of the gable wall meet at the ridge. Both lean against each other and provide mutual structural support. The gable roof is a very effective way to facilitate rainwater runoff. In addition, the gable roof does not allow significant snow accumulations to develop.
The pitch of the gable roof can vary according to structural and architectural requirements. The steeper the roof pitch, the more aesthetic it often looks, mainly when small tiles help to add aesthetics.
Compared with its standard counterpart, the hipped roof, the gable can afford additional living accommodation. Extra house room is advantageous when more rooms add value to a property

Hipped Roof
The hipped roof is another popular roof design in the United Kingdom. The front and back of the hipped roof are similar to the gable roof. The sides of the hip do not rise vertically but slope back towards the ridge. This gentle slope helps to deal with the strong winds that can batter the UK in winter.
Shed Roof
The shed roof style is a common type for home extensions and the typical lean-to roof style. The shed roof provides a suitable slope to deal with the wind and rain. The highest part of the pitch is adjacent to the house, whilst the lowest part of the shed roof is furthest away.
Salt Box Roof
The salt box roof style may not be as typical as the shed roof, but the salt box is still visible across the United Kingdom. The salt box roof is similar in style to the shed roof but differs in a smaller slope length on one side.
On the other side, the length is much longer than the former. In addition, on the smaller slope, the supporting wall is higher than the longer slope supporting wall.
There is room for additional living space on the higher side of the saltbox roof. However, due to the nature of the slope, the ceiling space under the ridge would be high, whilst it would diminish to almost nothing at the front.

Gambrel Roof
When people see the gambrel roof, they can often think of a barn or a Dutch structure. The gambrel is very noticeable with its pair of double pitches. The double-pitched roof creates an aesthetic effect, especially when a fine set of windows compliment the view.
This style of roof incorporates the pitch structure. The lower set of double pitches is at a sharper angle than the last, which are more gentle slopes. The gambrel roof has two symmetrical slopes to each side. This double rising can help to support further accommodation.
Mansard Roof
The mansard roof and the gambrel roof are very similar roofs. Both accommodate the double pitches. But that is where the difference ends. The gambrel roof wraps itself around the two sides of the building, whereas the mansard is set within the structure only.

WHAT ARE THE VARIOUS PARTS OF A ROOF?
Flashing
A roofer will insert lead or galvanized flashing around chimneys and other joints to prevent water penetration. Roofers refer to flashing around a chimney as an apron. The roofer creates steps into the apron to allow for the pitch. You will generally see aprons around dormers.
During hot summers and freezing winters, roof flashing can develop cracks and vents between the wall and the flashing. The fault occurs when a roofer has not installed the flashing correctly into the beds and perps of the brickwork.
In winter, water penetrates the cracks and freezes. Consequently, the expansion of the ice happens. As a result, cracks become bigger. Finally, the deterioration cycle repeats itself.
The cycle is known as capillary action. Capillary action draws water into the cracks of the flashing. Consequently, the water makes its way into other roofing components, causing condensation, moisture, and mould.
Our expert roofers at Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote will check all the joints in the flashing. Furthermore, our experienced roofers ensure they correctly seal all the flashing joints to prevent water ingress.

Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote Kirkby Malzeard pride itself on offering high-performance roofing solutions.
Ridge
Most importantly, the ridge forms at the very top of a roof. All the slopes or pitches of the roof come to meet at the ridge.
Furthermore, the ridge will generally run along the whole length of the roof. Finally, the ridge tiles complete the roof apex. In addition, the ridge tiles are usually of a semicircle shape or an inverted v shape. As a result, both are excellent at allowing the water to flow efficiently down the pitch.
Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote provide cost-effective and affordable roofing quotes. All our experienced roofers and roofing contractors at Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote are time-served roofing specialists.
Fascia Board
The fascia board can be the most noticeable and aesthetic roof feature. A roofer adds the fascia boards to the rafter ends horizontally. Also, the fascia board helps to support the guttering. In addition, the fascia board can make the whole house look new, especially when painted white or black.
One common problem with fascia boards is when a fascia board deteriorates, it can induce insect infestation. Wasps are a particular nuisance. The insects can readily make a home behind the fascia board. Insects are more problematic in autumn when the wasps can become angry.
At Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote, our team of specialist roofers works to the highest roofing standards in fascia board repairs. They offer professionalism with a caring attitude.

Tiles/Slates
Most importantly, tiles and slates are the protective covering on the roof. Consequently, the tiles and slates prevent the first defense against rain and other elements.
Concrete tiles are generally the cheapest and the most common. Also, the tiles have a variety of colours, shapes, and textures.
If you want style and more sophistication for your roof, then slate is a more aesthetic but more expensive option.
The most common slate available is the Canadian, Chinese, Brazilian, and Welsh Slate. All slates offer durability and weatherproof properties. Canadian, Chinese, and Brazilian slate are the cheapest, with Welsh slate the most expensive.
Nevertheless, the Welsh slate is a sustainable UK product. Furthermore, the jet-black Welsh slate is both superb and aesthetic!
The tiles and slates have to be maintained to prevent damage to the roofing structure. Wind can dislodge a tile or slate from its station over time. Finally, water can penetrate beyond the tile or slate and seep through any holes in the felt or around nails in the tile laths or tile battens.
Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote Kirkby Malzeard
As a result, once the water gets to the rafter timber, rotting can occur. Finally, over time, the structural integrity will become compromised. As a result, the water ingress can allow for condensation, moisture, and wet rot.
Overhanging branches can dislodge and even break tiles or slate.
Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote carry out prompt roof inspections to determine any tile or slate faults and fix them. Also, our roofers carry out all roofing work to the highest standards.

WHAT ARE THE VARIOUS PARTS OF A ROOF?
Gutter
Most importantly, the job of the gutter is to carry the water from the roof to the drainpipe, keeping the house dry in the process. However, gutter failing can be a common problem.
Consequently, the guttering needs to work efficiently. Gutter maintenance is essential. Leaves and other debris, such as tennis balls, can build up in the gutter, causing water to spill over the edge.
Ensure you look carefully for any signs of the gutter overflowing to detect blockage problems. Moreover, checking for water spillage is best undertaken during spells of heavy rain.
However, it is essential to know that where the gutter is spilling water won’t necessarily be the location of the blockage. It may only be the lowest part of the gutter! The problem could be somewhere.
At the end of the roof and gutter is a collection chamber called a hopper. Debris can block the hopper, leading to spillages.
Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote roofers will inspect your gutter and present you with a maintenance report on what gutter-repair work is needed.

Drainpipe
Firstly, the drainpipe takes the water from the gutter and discharges it to the drains. Nowadays, drainpipes and gutters are plastic, whereas earlier drainpipes and gutters were cast iron.
Over time, the cast iron becomes rusted, and the metal paint can start peeling off. In addition, heavy cast iron can be highly hazardous! If you have the slightest doubt about a faulty cast iron gutter or drainpipe, get in touch with Buildings and Trust and Roof Repair Quote now!
Also, drainpipes can often become blocked, and fixing the job is relatively easy. Most often, the cause of the blockage is either in the bottom or top part of the drainpipe. Debris can accumulate in either, causing the blockage.
Barge Board
Roofers mount the barge boards mounted on the side of a gable wall. Barge boards can either be wood timber or UPVC.
Consequently, the barge boards provide aesthetic finishes. Furthermore, the barge boards hide the rafters and other unsightly roofing components.

Tile Lathes or Tile Battens
Tile buttons are lengths of sawn timber, which the roofer nails the tiles to. The treated tile battens resist water penetration or moisture penetration.
Roof Truss
Firstly, a roof truss is a fabricated timber structure. The roof truss possesses chords and rafters. Consequently, these rafters and chords help to support the roof and the ceiling joists.
Breathable Membrane
A roofer will fit a breathable membrane beneath the tiling laths. Consequently, the membrane provides a secondary defense against debris and water penetration. Any water getting underneath the tiles will drain off down the membrane.
Furthermore, the UK building regulations state all roofs must have proper ventilation for the structure to breathe. Moisture can build up inside without ventilation. In addition, a properly ventilated roof should allow for ventilation shafts between the soffit and vents at the ridge. In conclusion, it can breathe and eject any moisture inside.

BUILDINGS AND TRUST AND ROOF REPAIR QUOTE KIRKBY MALZEARD
Eaves and Soffits
The eaves are at the lowest part of a pitched roof. Secondly, the eaves run underneath the extending rafters. Thirdly, the eaves generally support the soffit. The soffit is what you see when you look up to the roof. Soffits are a material that covers the eaves. The material for the soffits can be wood or plastic. Both will provide an aesthetic finish to the soffit and the eave.
Ceiling Joists
Firstly, a roofer will attach ceiling joists to the opposite sides of the roof and rafters. The ceiling joists give additional strength. Finally, the ceiling joists help to support the plasterboard.
Rafters
In the first place, the rafters or spas are wooden and provide support for the roofing components and tile finishes. Secondly, the rafters run from the ridge to the eaves and fascia board. Thirdly, the rafters create the roof pitch for water to run off.
