Our buyers have had a couple of contractors come out to quote for roof felt and would does based on their survey. The roofer had just been and explained to felt the roof they’d have to take all the roof off etc and that there is no felt up there currently, HOWEVER he said there probably wasn’t any felted roofs on the street as they were all Victorian properties with slate roofs and it was modern standards to felt roofs (or something along those lines) and he’d not expect anyone would get it done unless they had to replace all the times anyways he is going to quote them for the work but also indicated he would reassure them that it wasn’t a specific issue/defect with the house. If the buyers come back and want some kind of reduction because they have to redo the roof would we be right in saying we believe the work is not urgent and the roof is not defective or leaking then we’d see it as an optional Home improvement they wanted to make and therefore don’t feel a reduction is necessary? They haven’t asked but they are getting quotes for the original sash windows too and I feel like they are possibly gearing up to ask otherwise why do it pre exchange... They are FTB and from their queries and things they are getting quotes for it seems they are (quite understandably) looking at modern standards a lot when asking about things. I do understand that they’d be cautious and I’m happy for the contractors to come out I’m just getting uneasy at the amount of things they’ve queried which are in my mind not urgent issues and really stuff that you’d find in an old house.
