Roof Slates weird after Velux installation... ???

[Repsac]

Hello all,

I am looking for an opinion on a job that was performed by a loft conversion company and the way how they put the roof slates back together around the new velux windows. There are gaps I see between the slates and it does not look pretty as they are not organised nicely as the original ones before the velux installation.

I have attached 7 pictures, picture 2,3 and 4 are the most ugly and these are from the front of the property, so any potential future buyer of our house may raise few eye-browses and questions like: "what's wrong with the roof ?"

Just wanted your opinion on this overall roof job... ???

Regards,


Repsac

The one at the front wanted to be an inch to the right and that would have made it a lot better.

firstly they are not real slates, many of the cdrs have been left out.
The gaps need not be there as doubles are available for these which are easy to cut to the required size.

Thanks guys, much appreciated, do you think I am eligible to having this repaired to its nicely done ? Is it possible with the type of roof and type of roof tiles/slates an type of window to have this done perfectly ? Is there any risk from what you can see of water coming in if this is left as is ?

Basically it's a rubbish job.
It's correctable.

I did highlight the issue it to the workers, they said it's still work in progress and they are waiting for some clips and stuff and that it will all be nice and flat in the end, which I am not convinced at all.... ??

Its a loft conversion company, I'm doubtful it will get any better.
