Felt
Health and Safety – Use safety goggles when installing the roofing felt.
1. Roll out the mineral roofing felt along the lower part of one side of the roof.
Allow for sufficient overhang to fold down onto the roof framing (but not the underside of the roof).
Health and Safety – Use Step Ladders to put on the roof felt but do not climb on top of the roof.
Ensure there is a second person to support you when using a ladder.
Note - On the rare occasion that you have not been provided with enough felt please contact us so we can arrange
for more to be sent. Please be aware, we cannot reimburse you if you choose to purchase additional materials
2. Use clout nails to tack along the top edge of the felt and into the roof boards.
Repeat this process on the other side of the roof.
Take care not to tack into the tongue and grove join between each board as this can cause leaks.
3. You will then receive two additional pieces of felt (one at 0.5m wide) to then cover the ridge of the roof.
This can be secured to the roof using clout nails.
4. Fold the overhanging felt at the gable ends under the roof boards and tack into place.
Important!
The 4x8 and 6x8 Power Apex roof panels will finish flush with the gables so the felt will not tuck under.
