If the roof slates or tiles are in good repair, with no slipped or missing slates or tiles, there should not be any dampness. If there is, the probable cause of dampness in the roof space (loft) is bad ventilation. Ensure there are air spaces or good ventilation under the eaves, covered by mesh to keep out nesting birds.
