Please help - I have ordered and now fitted 20x50mm treated wood and not used Graded Battens as I now realise I should have.
I thought the wood seemed very weak but thought it must be ok.
What shoud I do? Take them off? add some more proper battens?
Please help.
EDIT:
Sorry, I meant I had used 25x50mm treated not 20.
The timber I have used is very knotty, one piece fell in half when I lifted it.
The trusses are 600mm apart and heavy concrete tiles going on.
I am hoping I can lay a proper batten either underneath to add strength or on top then cut the eaves 25 mm shorter to compensate.
I wish I had noticed my mistake before I fitted them but atleast I am not in a hospital bed or worse having fallen through them.
Will the Redland Mini Stonewold tiles be ok with 100 x 25mm of total batten under them?
