Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our Adenbrook Home : With Bricks! *updated 22 July* 30Jul 01, 2007 9:38 pm Vlad76 For some reason my builder does the bricks before the roof. Due to start the brick work hopefully within a week or two. Not sure what the logic is there. That doesn't sound right to me. I always thought the roof should be installed before the bricks. What if you got bad weather like the last few weeks, won't it causes damages to the frames and other internal structure stuffs?

According to the builder, it won't cause any issues as both the bricks and the roof will be done pretty quickly. They are saying they don't want to put up the scafolding up twice, so they will do it once for the bricks and then use it to put the roof tiles up.
