How to clean Cement Tile roof?

Has anyone got ideas how to prevent someone entering one's house through the roof, by lifting off a roof tile

  • Security for banks must have to deal with this problem, i wonder what the best solution would be to stop criminals getting into the attic through the roof.

  • Answer:

    It seems to me that most criminals would not want to be so obvious as to Burrell a whole in a roof. Unless of course you live in a very remote area. But it would still probably be easier to smash out a window and climbed through. When considering security try to think like a criminal it is not as important getting in as the ability to get out with their life freedom and maybe some of your goodies, preferably unnoticed .

Electrocute their genitals then sell the burnt remains as blocks of charcoal for a Xmas BBQ.

there is no way to absolutely proof any building but if you fit a dualtec movement / infrarred detector it should deter most intrusions by making it too risky. Also you could put chicken wire in place to delay entry, but you legally cannot electrify it as it then becomes a 'man trap', and you are responsible for any injuries caused.

one way would be to sheath it with metal or wood underneath

You could always kill two birds with one stone by putting solid foam or sprayed foam insulation under the roof tiles then board it out with plywood. This would make it very inconvienient for anyone to gain access through the roof and give you an insulated roof at the same time.

If you lift off a roof tile, that won't stop them.

Seal the loft door, then they can get no further, But what burglar would go to all that bother, it is easier to break a window !

WINCHESTER DEFENDER 12 GA. RIOT SHOT GUN! YOU COULD GO AS FAR AS TACKING SOME SORT OF GARDEN FENCING TO THE UNDERSIDE OF YOUR RAFTERS, BUT YOU'D HAVE TO DO THE WHOLE HOUSE! SOME THINK PROP A STICK AGAINST THE ATTIC DOOR, BUT JUST STEP OFF ONTO THE SHEETROCK & YOU'RE IN & CAN WALK OUT THE FRONT DOOR! INFRARED DECTECTORS & ULTRA SONIC DECTECTORS MAY NOT BE A GOOD MATCH FOR ATTIC HEAT & VERMIN THAT WILL MOVE, & HOT PUFFS OF WIND DRIVEN AIR, ALL SETTING OFF THE ALARM. IN HOUSTON, IN THE 80's THEY WERE PULLING WIND TURBINES & DOING HOME INVASIONS. SEVERAL WITHOUT INTERUPPTION! UNTIL THEY CHOSE THE GUY WHO WAS PREPAIRED, & KILLED A COUPLE OF THE THUGS & WOUNDED ANOTHER. NO MORE HOME INVASIONS FOR A WHILE!
