roof

A roof (PL: roofs or rooves) is the top covering of a building, including all materials and constructions necessary to support it on the walls of the building or on uprights, providing protection against rain, snow, sunlight, extremes of temperature, and wind. A roof is part of the building envelope.
The characteristics of a roof are dependent upon the purpose of the building that it covers, the available roofing materials and the local traditions of construction and wider concepts of architectural design and practice, and may also be governed by local or national legislation. In most countries, a roof protects primarily against rain. A verandah may be roofed with material that protects against sunlight but admits the other elements. The roof of a garden conservatory protects plants from cold, wind, and rain, but admits light.
A roof may also provide additional living space, for example, a roof garden.

    Roof bars?

    Has anyone fitted / used roofbars on their MG4? I was hoping to re-use a square bar with Thule fittings from another car, but it looks like the Thule square bar has "changed" so the new square bar option ("Evo") won't work with my old square bar. And I won't use the roofbars much, so don't...

    Stupid mistake no roof rails

    Just picked up my new MG ZS EV SE Long Range. Lovely car, very happy with it so far. Except... The reason I picked the MG was for the roof rails. Which I just realised are only on Trophy and I didn't spot it on collection. The dealer says MG doesn't offer any retro fit options but says...

    Storm damage

    Got up Friday morning to suspect that a small piece of masonry had been detached from the garage roof and fallen onto my MG4 Trophy - breaking the plastic cover on the nearside rear lights. I was less bothered about the small dent which may have been the result of out bin flying into it, since...

    Installing panels on a garden room.

    My house ( mid terrace) roof has a dormer on one side (probably too weak for the ballast to hold down solar panels and difficult I think to assess so too much risk.of collapse) and three velux windows and a wrongly shaped / positioned gable on the other side. So the main roof is not really...

    Black Vinyl roof wrap

    Has anyone removed the black vinyl roof covering? I had another layer added on my silver 77, not sure how long it will last, so when I have to remove it is there continuous paint on the roof like the other models?

    No roof rails...

    I'm looking to fit roof bars on my MG ZS 70 plate but all racks are only compatible with rails whereas my car is smooth. Has anyone had this issue? The ZS roof is curved so i've struggled to find a roof rack that fits. Or is there a company that will add roof rails to my car? MG have been no help.

    MG4 Roof rack

    It's mentioned in the specifications and reviews that the MG4 does not support a roof rack, but I don't fully understand why this is the case. Clearly from the photos, there aren't roof rails for this, but there are other systems for attaching a roof rack that don't require rails. I can't see...

    Storage Bird dropping marks on the roof? Your thoughts...

    So had the 4ER for 8 days and been wonderful but just been to the garage and noticed these marks on the roof. Now certainly didn't spot them when I picked the car up and not had any issues since. So would I be right in thinking that this is old bird dropping stains on the roof while in...
