A roof is a long-term investment, and mistakes can cause serious problems. Below we set out the most common mistakes made during roof installation and how to avoid them.
Najčešće greške pri ugradnji krova – izbjegnite ih na vrijeme!

An incorrectly built substructure

A roof needs a solid, properly levelled base. Unevenness or a poorly fixed substructure can cause the covering to bend or shift, which later leads to leaks and damage.

Badly executed joints and terminations

Incorrectly fastened sheets, poorly placed screws or inadequately sealed joints are a frequent source of roof problems. Such omissions can let water or wind in, so it is important to use the right fasteners and to pay attention to every detail during installation.

Insufficient roof ventilation

If air cannot circulate properly beneath the roof, moisture and condensation build up. That can shorten the life of the roof and damage the materials. Good ventilation makes for a durable and stable roof.

Correct installation and quality materials are the key to a long-lasting roof. Plan the work in advance and pay attention to every detail!
