The rolls of felt are usually laid across the way, and the rolls are usually 1 metre wide. If you're lucky enough to see lap edges above and below your leaky hole then it's possible (but awkward) to piece a new section of felt in from inside, on the whole width of a section between rafters...

Ok, after all the heavy rain we had, i took the oppurtunity to check the roof out so went into the attic and notice a small leak. My roof from the inside, is firstly covered with what looks like chip board, the felt, then the tiles. i broke some of the wet chipboard away and noticed that at...

Any of the big names in roof tiles produce a reliable product. I would get in side the loft when it's raining hard and also when it's Very cold outside. If there is water dripping through the holed felt then there is a roof problem If the underside of the felt is generally damp and...

gash - when you say "felt" do you mean glassfibre insulation or felt insulation (wool felt was used)? Also it might be useful for diagnosis for you to post a picture of the offendeing area. Holes in insulation are often caused by bird/animals (squirrels, rats, mice, etc.) - do you have any...

Repairing felt is to buy time. The OP is looking for time to carry him through the winter. He does. In another thread, he showed a roof he was working on that had big hole in the corner tiles. I said he should fill those holes with mastics. That loft would have been very drafty and breezy.

Parents dont want to put a hole in the garage roof. There are a couple of other exit points for the vent it's just convincing the parents that's the way to go. Garage roof is flat felt roof

There isn't a soffit as such, if you look under the eaves you see the felt. At the moment there is just a hole through until the roofer comes. I have included a photo to show it as best as I can.

i’d suggest the concrete tiles are there to transport water out , like a cavity tray. thats a proper botch . it needs concrete lintels in and out with a cavity tray or pvc /felt insert and weep holes.

Yes I get that. But I would guess you probably had damp in the valley maybe near the bottom. Or even showing in a few places of the valley rafter where holes appeared in the felt...

I would have thought that there are purlins or noggins in the way so filling the whole thing via a few holes may not work. To be honest I would look at external insulation and a new felt

Colour the dog in with a felt tip pen, then push it face first into the door. Cut out the mark left on the door to get your own special hole designed just for your dog :lol:

Thanks for the replies! On the initial inspection and clean, I actually found a hole/crack which is probably the suspect. It's on the section where the felt rises to meet the flashing. Which probably corresponds to why it has being oddly intermittent. I have a small can of highly fibrous roof...

Hi all and thanks in advance for your advice. My garage currently has a flat felt roof that is completely knackered (more holes than felt), so I am looking to replace it. I have to decide what option is best out of the following:- 1. Twinwall sheets 2. Corrugated plastic (clear or...

Hi all, I would be really grateful for any thoughts or advice. Really struggling to know where to go with this next. We had a new boiler installed about a couple of years ago. It is in the garage and the new flue goes through a new hole that was cut through garage roof boards. The old flue...

The Velux instructions also show that the felt should be sealed to the side of the window, using their own under felt collar or standard felt. This prevents any water that does get under the tiles from coming inside. I know that the builders that installed my Velux's didn't bother and just...

after addressing 5000 English people in a muggy Westminster Hall, Ghandi was asked how he felt. He replied "The only thing i could think about was 5000 unwashed ars*holes".

All that will do is show where there are nail holes in the felt.

Poor woman, If It was my missus I'd have broken their fingers and they would be wolf whistling out their asre holes.

I did install the 7x2 and it worked out pretty well. I was able to kneel and later sit on it in the middle section without any problem although there was slight wobble sideways (I am really glad I went with C24 and 7x2 in the end). I did, however, damage the roofing felt in the process. Any...

looking at the last pictures I see battens that are dry. Chances of it being an actual roof leak is low. Just above the holed felt it looks like possibly a live water mark coming from under the felt lap. If it is, then it can only be running down the back of the felt under the lap to the...
