There are two basic types of roof - flat and pitched (sloped). Roofers
can work on both types, or specialise. For example:
•Roof slaters and tilers lay new roofs and also repair or replace
existing roofs.
•Built-up bituminous roofing involves putting layers of felt on top of
each other, and using a blowtorch or hot air gun to melt bitumen on
the back of the felt as it is laid.
•Single-ply roofing is where PVC sheeting (or a similar type) is used
to cover the roof.
•Lead sheet is used as a weatherproof finish on flat and pitched
roofing. It can be used on houses, as well as for unusual shapes such
as spires.
