Garage roof is fine. Been stood for years and will continue to do so. Expensive job and we need the money elsewhere.

You forget good sir what my trade is, add to that the generations of builders in my family I'm pretty sure I know a suspect structure when I see one!

William's playhouse will be about £150 max. timber material, stains, replacement toughened glazing for window...few toy guns and map prints etc.

Garage I think will be at least £1500. Remove existing asbestos rain water system and discard according to health and safety regs, strip roof tiles, verges and ridge, remove old timber roof members, remove existing wallplates and replace, provide new fink trusses at 600mm centres, refelt (possibly with breathable vapour permeable membrane, retile, repoint verges, replace rw system and soffits and fascia with new plastic goods!!!!!!

Too big a job for me and my wallet right now.

It doesn't bear thinking about!!!!!!
