Log Cabin and Shed Roofing Felt

A traditional grey coloured mineral roofing felt. It is suitable for use with all garden buildings such as sheds, log cabins, kennels etc.

This is also recommended by IKO as an underlay prior to installing felt shingles acting as a membrane. It is also suitable for use under our metal roof tiles.

Dimensions:

• 1.0m x 6.5m (P020594) and 1.0m x 10m (P088748)

• Quick and easy to install

• Waterproofs and protects shed roofs

• Felt has a life expectancy of 3 - 5 years.

• Live expectancy can be substantially reduced by overhanging branches and greenery.

INSTALLATION:

• Roofing Felt Overlap Size at least a 100mm on each piece.

• Make sure overlap is in the direction of water flow.

• It is a good idea to use bitumen glue on the overlaps for extra security especially on flat roofs.

• For flat roofs or very shallow slopes apply bitumen glue under the overlaps.

• Roofing Felt Overlap Size on the edge of the roof by at least 50mm.

• Remove film from sticky part. Heat from the sun will help to release the glue.

• The sticky part should always be hidden.

• Nails should be every 60mm. Close to the edge of an overlap.

• It helps to shape a curve when folding corners.

• Be Careful! Felt can rip easily and should be handled carefully when moving. Sharp edges, rough pulling and rough handling will damage felt easily.

• Felt requires CAREFUL handling when moving and installing.

• Felt is brittle in cold weather.

• Felt is very soft in hot weather

• Felt rips easily if not handled carefully.

• Optional Roof board felt nails in bags of 200 pieces

Please Note: All felt needs careful handling. It can rip and will be brittle below 8 degrees and needs careful handling. In high temperatures it is very pliable and can rip. Always round corners before folding over. Take care when lifting and moving felt across a roof.
