Believe it or not, you can’t simply stick a loose roof tile down yourself or do a quick DIY job on any roof leaks legally, you could end up in hot water with the Department of Trade and Industry, and their South African National Building Regulations Act!
To quote Building Regulations as They Apply to Roofs-Part L, “ for example, instead of simply having to ‘resist any forces’ to which the roof might be subjected to, the regulations now state that “The roof of any building shall be so designed and constructed that it safely sustains any actions which can reasonably be expected to occur in such a manner that any local damage (including cracking) or deformation do not compromise its functioning”.
“In simple language, if there is a major wind (Cape Town’s Black Southeaster for instance) or some other really horrible weather conditions, the roofs of our homes are expected to be able to stay on the house and protect us from the elements without themselves being damaged”
…what a mouthful! And that’s just for starters! Quite simply, any roof repairs undertaken must follow pretty strict building regulations, or, you could find yourself having to start all over again with a brand new roof!
