Introduction
Roofs not maintained properly will perish. It’s found that the tiles on tile roofs not waterproofed and painted regularly will start to crack and break. They will start separating because of failing and insufficient waterproofing and the roof will start to leak water. The damp that forms inside the roof will lead to the growth of mould. Occupants will fall ill from the mould and repairs of the roof will be expensive.
