Description
This determination arises from a dispute regarding the proposed method of installing seals as part of repairs to the roof of a 7-year-old house because the authority was not satisfied that the proposed method would comply with certain clauses of the Building Code.
The authority's concerns about compliance relate to the weathertightness and durability of repairs proposed to the valley gutters.
The matter to be determined is whether the proposed method of installing compressible seal strips beneath the concrete roof tiles at the valley gutters will comply with Clause B2 Durability and Clause E2 External moisture of the Building Code.
