Thanks Weedon, We wasn't expecting anyone to reply so quickly. We will give it go and see what happens.We are going out at the end of October so we will try to find someone who will be able to sort it for us. Maybe we could find details of a roofer at the local Maries office in the next village as our hamlet only has 11 properties in it. All the neighbours are very nice but we do not like keep asking them for help. Thanks once again, Huckle
