Roof repairs in Javea

25th February 2009

Work has started on the north roof


Many cracks like these below were found on the roof. Some were probably left deliberately for ventilation. These will all now be sealed. Ventilation bricks can be built in to the sides of the building. There doesn't seem to be any system of where, or why, these cracks were left. They are just randomly scattered over the roof.



This was the biggest hole! A tube that presumably goes to the kitchen extractor fan - but no chimney was ever put over it. Just tiles covering the gaping hole, so gradually over the years, as the tiles have moved, more and more water has seeped in.

North facing roof area to be relaid

South facing roof - about the same size as the north facing roof

There are a lot of broken gulley tiles and top tiles in the South section of the roof. Also a lot of broken tiles on the ridge.
