Good evening,

In our new build, the roof windows have been installed and the roof has been covered. My questions are whether the roof tiles should extend further over the battens, almost reaching the window frame (oval blue circle), and whether the roof tiles should fit together more tightly.

Thank you very much for any information :-)

Best regards, Jörg

This is what it usually looks like...

The brick at the top right next to the window is not positioned correctly, which is most noticeable at its right edge. I can't say anything about the overlap over the rebate right now, but I can check in the next few days how far it overlaps in our case.

Except for the brick that doesn’t fit properly, it looks like this for us as well (maybe stretched slightly more over the window frame).
