Just had the bay roof refelted and hes' cocked it up with patchwork
pieces but more serious is,he's created a hollow near the front end
of the bay roof which will in turn hold about 3.5 pints of water.
Just have to wait now till it ****es down to see what it turns out
like?

How has he done that ? The roof underneath must be faulty surely ?
You should have DIY'd it !
Simon.

By the looks of it he's left some cement underneath? ie its not
totally flat as the cement rises as it goes further back towards the
brickwork,so therefore if there's no ceent near the front end this
will create a ridge or as it is now a hollow.
This bay roof has been done a few times over the years and the
previous buggers have built it and up with a layers of cement.

George,

Then surely it is time to consider having a proper job done and the bay
re-roofed and re-felted.

There should be a timber tilting fillet fixed between the deck and roof and
under the felt to avoid cracking when the said felt is turned up under the
presumably lead flashing - and not an ever increasing cement fillet.

You can only "repair" this sort of job a limited number of times before even
the repairs become problematical - as what seems to happening here and the
poor old roofer is getting the blame.
