Felting under tiled roof Douelle

I have a small house in Douelle. We are getting occasional rain stains on our ceilings. The roof is (roman?) tiled but has no felting under. I beleive that when there is a strong wind the rain is being pushed under the tiles. I believe we need the tiles removed and underfelt installed. Will take advise on whether it is worth reinstalling existing tiles or if some or all should be replaced with new. Additional work to be quoted for... 1) There is a concrete blockwork chimney that is no longer used (apart from holding up TV antenna & disk), this chimney needs taking down so it is below roof height. 2) The chimney in the lounge currently ends in the loft, this needs extending above roof height (and adjoining roof height) so that it can be used (have spare concrete blocks left in the loft by previous owner). I intend to attach TV antenna & disk to this chimney. 3) The extended chimney lined with stainless steel liner so we can use a wood burning stove in the lounge. 4) Currently the loft is only accessible from a small door outside, we need a loft hatch to be installed to allow access from inside the house. 5) There is no insulation in the loft. Need insulation to the currently recommended depth installed. Any woodwork installed must be treated against rot, fungus, woodworm, capricorn, termits etc. All work to be guaranteed. The property can be inspected during the first week in April, I can supply photos and plans, if required, by email.

Landscape plot Near Neuvic sur l'Isle

We have recently built a new house and after the build the plot was left in rather a poor state by the builder with a lot of rock left lying around and not much soil meaning grass will not grow in all areas and it all needs levelling. The total plot including house and drive is about 3000 m2 and approximately half of it now needs clearing, top soil and levelling and grass seed as we just want it to a standard that we can easily cut the grass. For the right person there could also be the opportunity for further kerbing and stoning work on the drive and a patio to be laid.
