Bought a townhouse in S. Florida with 4 month old barrel tile roof. Part of my house has 2 stories, and where the roof over 1 story area meets side of the taller part of house, there is a gap of approx. 1 inch since roof tiles not not flush against side of taller wall. Gap runs approx. 50 linear feet. No leaks yet, since they used that great underlayment that gets you insur. discount in Fl. However I assume gap should be filled in. What do you suggest- expandable foam seems sloppy, and would it harm underlayment that peeks thru along edge?
I have no warranty since previous owner bought rooft, and this passed local inspection and my inspector didnt mention it even though he noticed loose tiles...so he was somewhat thorough. I know tiles are really there to protect underlayment from tree branches, hail, and sun, but this 1 inch exposure concerns me...should it? Thanks.
