Week Eighteen - capstones removed and lead flashing put in

Week Eighteen.

Following the recommendations from Graham the zinc roofer, Dan has re-thought the guttering at the rear and came to the conclusion that he needed to take the capstones back off and put a full lead flashing through the wall instead of a layer of damp proof course.  This will eliminate any worry that rain or roof run off
The capstones of the wall went back on today - on top of a full width lead flashing. The finished roof will sit above the gully and will have a standard plastic guttering catching most of the rain from the roof.  The lead will just be a back up to stop any moisture on the capstones getting down into the wall.
