The final roof covering is now on, and the roofer was just completing the last of the battens, ready to get the tiles laid. Finally the House is covered from the top, and we are waiting for the delivery of the Windows and Doors, so the house can be made secure.
The Roofer reckons around 3 weeks to complete the Slate Tiles, they all have to individually checked and sorted into different thickness's ready to be put up.
Here is a shot from the front, where you can see the finshed roof.
Its hard to believe that there are 5200 slate tiles here, we eventually chose a slate called Carmen Ultra from Spain, it has a nice grain and thickness. We saw them on another house and they look really nice.
This is inside the master bedroom, looking up you can see the roof is now completely covered.
