The brickwork is complete and the roof can now go on.
There is a delay as the client decides what do with the fascia and gutter. This is a slightly unusual situation as we have to match the gutter and fascia on the existing extension and tie our new flat roof into the existing also. The existing gutter and fascia is made from softwood and has started to rot, so the client has decided to get us to replace the entire lot. This will make for a much better job, we will use a painted hardwood fascia and an aluminium gutter.
Normally our orangeries don’t have an external gutter as such, we construct an up-stand around the perimeter of the roof and use falls in the roof to run the rainwater to several drains. This is slightly more work, but it tends to look better than using gutters.
