If you have never fixed a roof tile or slate before but have wondered how to go about repairing or replacing them, then this is the book for you. Many of the technical books about roof tiling and slating are rather vague and conveniently ignore some of the trickier problems and how they can be resolved. However, this practical volume, written by an expert with a vast experience of teaching roof tiling and slating to both apprentices and experienced roofers, rejects this cautious approach. Kevin Taylor uses both his extensive knowledge of the trade and his ability to explain the subject in easily understandable terms, to demonstrated how to carry out the work safely to a high standard, using tried and tested methods. AUTHOR: Kevin Taylor has been involved with slating and roof tiling for all of his working life and, for over twenty-five years, has gained experince in many differeb=nt aspects of the roofing industry. Kevin now works for the National Federation of Roofing Contractors as a Technical Manager presenting technical advice and providing education and training for young roofers. 250 colour illustrations
