and I mean the tiles were everywhere... on the front terrace, on the living room floor, on the office floor, on the ground outside the front of the house, and elsewhere... now, for anyone who has not seen how they get the roof tiles positioned onto the roof, that is quite a sight to see. I don't imagine that it is done like this at every work sight but at my house construction work site, the roofers threw each and every one of the tiles from the base floor level to the roof level where another roofer caught each and every single one of the tiles and once he did, handed them over individually to another roofer who placed them in a pile in a designated location on the roof. This was done endlessly until after about an hour when they got tired and then started handing them up via a ladder. It wasn't long before they got back into the throwing mode though and I did not see any, not one tile dropped or miss thrown. None were broken as a result of getting them up onto the roof this way.


Above picture: roofers taking a rest from tossing the tiles up and now handing them singularly up the ladder to next individual to be staged on the roof.


Above picture: tiles staged ready for being layed.


Above picture: here are the nice neat stacks of the staged tiles.


Above picture: here the tiles are all neatly staged and ready to begin the laying of the tile.


Above picture: after staging the tiles on the roof, they started laying the tiles.


Above picture: here, the water proofing and insulation foil is visable. personally I don't think there is much of an insulation factor with this type of foil and I may find myself adding some additional insulation at some point down the road.
