This is not the correct way to install a flat roof. Firstly when laying OSB you finish the end of a sheet on a joist not between them like shown on video. Secondly the back flashing should be raggled into wall to make it water tight what will need to happen now is a lead raggle flashing installed above what you have got there why have a system that is not fit for purpose when you need to use lead. Also flashing on wall is not high enough you are supposed to be be a minimum of 150 mm above deck level. Next you have installed new roof and fascias without putting a rhone on front elevation where does the water go that falls on roof? Most importantly where is your roof edge protection HSE would have a field day with you. I could go on and pick holes in this all day long but I'll leave it there.

As I said you didn’t watch the video properly because I answered certain questions in it. Also if you are so experienced then you should know that this tongue and groove system does not need to have its ends on joists.

As George below, bad job not supporting the joints in the boards. Plus the fibreglass should be double on the joints. The bricks added in look awful! Really there is no excuse not to match them in properly. Far better would have been to put a pitched roof on, you could have raised the inside while leaving the outside at the original level. Would have looked much nicer and saved bricking.
@darrenthebuilder
3 жыл бұрын
How can it be a bad job if that’s what the boards are designed for by the manufacturer? You don’t need to support these on joists only the ends. I didn’t pick the bricks and they are actually the match provided by a brick store. Just remember they are brand new so will initially stand out. Cheers.
@grolfe3210
3 жыл бұрын
But it is no more difficult to put the join over a joist to make it better. Fibreglass job is really bad. Should do all joints, the ends and a decent overlap in each run. There is a gap left top right corner too. Bricks will never match in! Also the whole roof is now being supported by the one remaining old joist over the door frame! One noggin will no stop it twisting.

"they interlock each other" Now go to 3.00 he cuts the t&g off the last whole row and puts a bit of the old board back in to fill.
