Default Roof advice

Does anyone know anything about roofs, I'm in need of some (informed) advice please specifically about this spray on roof insulation that seemingly fixes all problems (mine leaks when windy).

Apologies this is nothing to do with model cars. I read as many positive reviews as bad ones it seems so really not sure what to do.

Can we avoid jokes in this please as I'm a little stressed about this.

Any help/expreriences much appreciated!

Dan

Yes, I have insulation on this, I have the foaming on my roof, yes, it is like the slippy white stuff.

I get it from my neibour (he has i-pod nano - yes) it is like white jelly that streeks in it, he plaster it in me and it keep water off. He been collecting for long time.


Hight five?

Angled, tiled, but pretty old. No obvious holes but it still leaks.

can't see spray on insulation will work to stop leaks, drafts yes, leaks no... loose tiles and torn membrane sounds the cause... insurance time.
