The Roof Progresses At Lymehurst

Once the scaffolding was errected I decided that this was the time to get any other high up jobs done. So the chimneys needed re pointing and flanching ( you learn all the technical terms!)and I decided to have a chimney liner installed to connect with the wood burning stove, which I have now discovered is  a compulsory requirement.. Getting these jobs done in the right order and as quickly as possible was a bit of a task but necessary as the chimney scaffolding had to be removed before the roofers could start!!

Looks like an enormous snake
 A week after the scaffolding went up those jobs were completed and the roofers started  work. I have never been so interested in weather reports!! Each day I hoped for decent weather. To be honest even though we have had some terrible forecasts the roofers have managed to work. Here in Llandudno the weather can blow over quite quickly and often the weather isn't as bad as had been forecast

Nearly there now

Roofing materials arrive

Scary time, no tiles on!

Felted and batoned...at least it's waterproof now...I hope!

Most of the back roof done
