Good afternoon, Darren,
The main roof, of course, has always been tiled, and the eastern extension, being a slightly enlarged replacement of the original lounge, was rebuilt as near as possible to the original, having been covered by the insurance.
For the roof over the entirely new western extension, with its shallow pitch, it seemed sensible to use the Kingspan option. This has the insulation already built in and, being a prefabricated system, it is a lot more economical: no “wet” trades to be co-ordinated and paid for, and the whole thing done and dusted in not much more than a day. Its environmental credentials are good and the colour we chose was the nearest possible to the tiled roofs.
I’ll check with Gordon tomorrow if there is anything else.
I hope you’ll get to love it before long!
Best wishes – PW
