Householder's speak for builder & roofer's speak

How would you translate the phrase, "To remove 10 x 6 roof tiles above area were [sic] leak is showing,"

It relates to an investment property owned by my wife which is rented out through a letting agency.


Thanks.

  • Thanks for clarifying, Nick. I suppose there is some logic in going by the exposed area - after all this is what counts, and will need to be considered when one reckons up how many tiles will be needed for a roof of given dimensions.


    Very valid point about leaks manifesting at some point distant from the point of ingress, due to running along felt. I am no roofer but a householder and I have seen this sort of thing myself.
