Gourock

Gourock is a town that is within the Inverclyde council area and historically a burgh of the county of Renfrewshire in the west of Scotland. The town's name originates from the Gaelic term for 'rounded hill', which pertains to the hill above the town. Historically a small fishing village, Gourock gradually grew into a community centred on herring curing, copper mining, rope making, quarrying, and yacht construction and repairing. The town served as a seaside resort on the Firth of Clyde in the 2nd half of the 19th century. Existing structures illustrating this piece of the town's history are progressively being lost, with The Bay Hotel and Cragburn Pavilion being gone from the town since the end of the 20th century. Nevertheless, development continues to take place along the coast, such as the repair of Castle Leven, with the building and construction of new estates making it possible for it to be in use as a b&b. Even though even more growth is occurring, an area of green belt continues to separate the town from the Cloch lighthouse. Its main function in the present day is as a vibrant property location, with a railway terminus and ferry services. The David MacBrayne Ltd. headquarters sits at the pier, and their Argyll Ferries subsidiary runs a passenger ferry service to Dunoon. Gourock is the home to one of the three public outdoor swimming pools that still exist in Scotland. Built in 1909 with a sandy flooring, the Gourock Outdoor Pool is a modern-day space with heated and cleansed sea water. It forms a part of a leisure centre, featuring an enlarged gym and lift accessibility. For all your home upgrades, make certain to make use of trusted contractors in Gourock to make certain of quality.

    FAQs

    how to replace flat roof felt?

    How To Replace Flat Roof Felt

    Also referred to as tar paper, roofing felt is installed underneath the roof’s shingles to help deny water access to your home. Installing the roofing felt in overlapping layers builds a water barrier in situations whereby the weather damages or blows away the shingles. Although the application of a roofing felt on a flat roof is relatively easier and safer than working on a peaked roof, it’s advisable to take enough care and precautions. If you lack proper training and experience for this task, we’d recommend you employ a reliable professional to guarantee the best results and save you from further headaches especially in cases whereby unfortunate errors are made. This step by step guide will give you a good insight into the flat roof felt replacement process.

    • Take a measurement of the width and length of the roof.

    • Calculate the square footage by multiplying the numbers.

    • Multiply the square footage gotten by three (it’s advisable to install three layers of roofing felt to create a really strong weather barrier).

    • Use a claw hammer to remove the existing roofing felt.

    • Use utility knife to cut the new felt to fit the length of the roof.

    • Place the first piece along the roof’s edge and use a hammer tacker to tack the felt in place with staples or galvanized nails and hammer.

    • Put the staples or nails at every 6 inches along the side touching the roof’s edge as well as down the short sides.

    • Repeat the same process for the second piece, laying it out beside the first row of felt.

    • Cut a piece of felt to the appropriate length using a utility knife to begin the second layer of roofing felt, and cutting it in half, lengthwise.

    • Apply construction adhesive along the first row using a trowel.

    • Press the first piece for the second layer onto the adhesive. Repeat this process until the roof is covered with a second layer

    • Apply construction adhesive over the second layer to install the third layer. Begin with a full piece of felt without cutting it in half.

    • Overlap each piece by 2 inches until you’ve completely installed the third layer.

    What guarantee or warranty can I get?

    Most material warranties come from the waterproofing layer manufacturers, and can last between 5 and 20 years. If your roofing contractor is on the manufacturer’s installer list, it might cover their work. It’s important that you always read through all the information given to you about your warranty so you know exactly what is included.

    I’ve got ponding on my roof. Do I need to replace it?

    Ponding is where you see pools of water appearing on your flat roof. Unless your roof is leaking or showing other signs of damage, you don’t need to replace it. When you do have your flat roof replaced, tell the contractor so they can find out the cause of the ponding.

    What is overlaying?

    If your existing roof is still in good condition but the membrane is getting old, it’s often not worth exposing the structure to the weather whilst the contractor strips off the old membranes. The contractor will leave them in place to act as a base layer for a new roofing system. As long as there are no other problems with your roof, then overlaying is a good way to replace your flat roof.If you have any more questions about flat roofing that aren’t listed here, fill out our form to ask a contractor.
