Internally fitted modern roofing membrane in loft space fixed to underside of roof timbers timbers

The installation of an internally fitted modern roofing membrane in the loft space, fixed to the underside of roof timbers, can serve multiple purposes and may not necessarily be done to mask a problem. Here are a few possible reasons why someone might choose to do this: Improved insulation: The roofing membrane can act as an additional layer of insulation, helping to reduce heat loss from the property. This can be particularly beneficial in older buildings with poor insulation. Moisture control: The membrane can help prevent moisture from entering the loft space, which can be useful in areas prone to high humidity or in cases where the external roofing felt may not provide adequate protection against water penetration. Condensation management: By adding a roofing membrane, you can create a vapor barrier that helps prevent condensation from forming on the underside of the roof. This can be especially important in properties with inadequate ventilation or insulation. Energy efficiency: By reducing heat loss and managing moisture, an internally fitted roofing membrane can contribute to improved energy efficiency in the building, potentially leading to lower heating and cooling costs.

Hi they have his non felted roof this is not the process for a modern re roof sound to me that they are hiding something

only seen this once on an small council estate in Coningsby it was carried out by some wally in the council can only think it was done to save money as on removal of the roof tiles the under felt had eroded to point of being able to poke your finger through it, the only true way to see what condition the felt is in is to remove a few roof tiles, from my experience it is generally done to cover something up, if the felt on the roof is none breathable by felting underneath with breathable felt will create condensation problems. good luck Alex
