A properly detailed roof lasts 40+ years; a badly detailed one leaks inside 5. The cost of getting it wrong ## What poor roofing quietly destroys The roof is the most weather-exposed part of the building. Corners cut here become interior repairs five to ten years later. If ignored - Water damage tracks inward A single slipped tile or failed flashing can drip onto ceilings, insulation, electrics and eventually joists, a small repair becomes a full loft rebuild. - Failed flat roofs = wet ceilings Cheap felt on dormers and garages fails inside 5 years. EPDM or GRP done properly lasts 25+. - Poor leadwork = chimney leaks Mortar flashings instead of proper lead soakers and cover flashings around chimneys are the #1 cause of chimney-breast damp. - Missing ventilation = condensation Modern roof insulation without proper eaves ventilation causes condensation on the underside of the roof, mould, dry rot, wet insulation. Common mistakes - Torch-on felt on domestic dormers Torch-on is a specialist product often mis-applied on domestic jobs. EPDM or GRP is safer, longer-lasting and warrantied. - Mortar-only flashings Sand-and-cement flashings around chimneys and pitch changes are cheap and fail fast. Proper lead work costs more once, lasts decades. - Skipping the ventilation upgrade Adding insulation without upgrading eaves and ridge ventilation traps moisture. The insulation quickly becomes worthless.
