However if your roof is lined with the thermatough type of foil and you have airconditioning/heatpump units installed in the ceiling, ensure that the contractors (and electricians) use duct tape to stick the foil back together please.
It frustrates my SOH no end when people's roofs start leaking and it drops into the roof cavity because someone has gone and stuck multiple holes through the foil and then failed to tape them back up.
(foil isn't meant to be used to prevent roof leaks but helps direct any leak back towards the eave area and away from the expensive painted gib board surfaces.)
