• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Can you spot the problem

Exactly that. Its not been battened yet but why not put in on correctly ready for battening

The roofers are a strange lot sometimes only turning up for a couple of hours with one block then the next day turn up mob handed with five blokes but never stay more than half a day.
 
The piece 2nd in from the left will do a great job of funnelling the water into the house as it runs under it with the overlap of the piece above!
 
I spoke to the Neighbours about it. Apparently the roofer discovered structural problems with a recent extension when he took those tiles off so the membrane is temporary but I take Roger's point that if we had a deluge, water would likely enter the house.
 
Roofing membrane can actually be used that way, so long as the joints are taped. It has a BBA certificate allowing it. I've never seen it done.
 
I could never understand the logic in that Mike as it smacked of decisions by people who possible had never had any practical experience. Relying on a taped join rather than a decent overlap in the "correct" orientation just seems complete bonkers to my old fashioned mind.

You'd be amazed how much of the world's infrastructure is just held together with tape and best intentions.
