Hello,
Our house dates back to 1962, and the garage roof expands slightly due to heat from the sun in summer. This causes cracks in the walls and prevents us from plastering the walls.
I want to protect the roof from the heat (sun) and am looking for ideas.
Currently, I am considering two options: either protecting it with gravel or, more complex and expensive, with a green roof for the garage.
Does anyone have other ideas or experience with these two options?
At the moment, the roof is sealed with roofing felt.
Thank you very much
