Tile Roof Help Please
Todays home was built in 2006. The hip and ridge tiles appear to be rake tiles because of the holes on the side. Should they all be replaced with ridge tiles?
Many of the tiles along the hip and ridges are very loose, I could just pick them up. They were secured with mortar only. Are the hip and ridge tiles required to be secured with a fatener as well.
There are also several exposed fasteners in random locations.
My main question is if the hip and ridge tiles are rake tiles, should they ALL be replaced and should the hip and ridge tiles be secured with a fatener and not just mortar? The home is 5,000 sq-ft and there are a bunch of them this way. This was a home warranty inspection. I just want to make sure I call it out correctly.
Thanks in advance guys.
