Roof ventilation FAQs
Roof Ventilation Questions and Answers
These answers explain common questions before you request a quote.
Can you see a roofing problem?● Send us a photo
How can I tell condensation from a roof leak?+
Condensation often relates to cold weather and indoor moisture, while a leak may follow rain and appear near a roof problem. Both can occur together, so information matters.
What types of roof ventilation are available?+
Options can include eaves ventilation, slate or tile vents and ridge ventilation. The right approach depends on the roof layers.
Can insulation block roof ventilation?+
Yes. Insulation pushed tightly into the eaves can obstruct an intended airflow path.
Will adding vents cure damp timbers?+
Only if inadequate ventilation is the cause. Active leaks, trapped moisture and indoor humidity also need to be considered.
