    What to do about intrusive CCTV

    Talk to them. Ask them if your house is covered by the camera. although it may appear to be pointing at you, the field of view may be that it’s not covered. also, when I’ve installed them before, you can screen out portions of the view like in your situation Through the DVR set up Box.

    Roofing choices

    If your going flat and it’s a decent size, I’d personally go against fibreglass too. id rather a membrane of some sort, something along the lines of Alkor Plan 1.5 in charcoal, but you must get the details around the edges right to make it look clean, crisp and modern.
