<p>The leak is directly below a fibre cement valley gutter. One slope is tiles laid over close boarded timber which is safe. The leak is at the far end of the gutter, it was unsafe to venture onto the roof, but viewed from a ladder we can see that the far end of the gutter was choked with debris. Bearing this in mind, we would suggest the following course of action:</p><ul><li>Operatives to apply protective sheeting to work routes and working areas.</li><li>To supply and erect a mobile access tower, this will provide edge protection and safe platform to raise our equipment to roof level.&nbsp;</li><li>To raise up sufficient crawling boards to lay along the bottom of the sheeted roof slope to reach the end of the gutter.</li><li>Once in place, clean out the gutter, bag up and remove debris from site.</li><li>To inspect the gutter and roofing in the local area of the leak.</li><li>Typically, leaks of this nature are due to the breakdown of the gutter joint sealant, we shall renew all the gutter joints along the far end of the gutter.</li><li>To carry out minor repairs to any other visually obvious defects in the local area.</li><li>Site to be left clean and tidy.</li></ul><p>Please note: Until safe access is in place and the gutter has been cleared, we cannot know the cause of this leak. If it is a minor problem, i.e. gutter joint, then minor repairs should solve the problem, however if we find that the gutter is cracked, or that roof sheets in close proximity to the leak are broken, or if we find other issues that cannot be easily repaired we shall provide you with a further quotation of these works.</p><p>Our total cost to carry out the above works in&nbsp;normal working hours shall be</p><p>Labour - &pound;520.00 ( 2 Operatives )</p><p>Materials - &pound;616.00</p><p>Access Equipment - &pound;250.00</p>
