DIY Patio Update : Roof Tiles

Wow ... blogging duties neglected ... anyway ... here we are back again ... we have a lot to update but let's start with the roof tiles for the patio.

Ok, so the roof tiles are finally up after 5 weekends.  It took team work to get those tiles up.  Hubby was up at the roof, me on the ladder and kids on ground, kids passing me the roof tiles and me to hubby.  The roof tiles had to be removed after it was installed as it was leaking.  After Hubby rectified the problem, fingers crossed, so far so good.  Only left to do is to installed the gutters as rain water is going into our neighbors compound.

So here are the pictures and what we did ...
