There is'nt an easy way of doing it the corner bracket's have to sit on the same height as the top of the tile batton.If your worried about the water getting in ,felt over the top of the hole and put the water tray in above the velux which catches any penatrating water from above.Then put your...

Hi I've got a repair to do to my roof. The roof has sarking boards, with 1f felt on top, battens, then slates. I'm repairing a hole in the sarking and felt from where a flue was removed. The whole area to be repaired amounts to approx. 1.2m x 1m. I was kindly given some felt to use for...

Sorry this is the loft in my house. The tiles are above. This is from inside looking at the roof felt.

You do know it will have to be re-felted and lathed again to suit these tiles.No good just removing the laths,leave the felt and refixing the laths to suit them tiles.?You want new felt as the other felt will be full of holes where the laths were secured.As "alastairreid" said,strip and start again.

you cut a hole through the inner felt and insert the vents google tile vents

Slip a piece of felt down from the lap above the hole... Then get roof fixed

It all depends on the surveyor. If the tiles are the traditional clay "rosemary" type then the felt does very little and so any holes wont be a concern If the tiles are interlocking concrete, then some rain may get to the felt. Either way, if there are no signs of water ingress, and if...

If you think about it, how are the vents supposed to vent the loft if there are no holes cut through the felt?

Taking a Cat 6 cable up to our bedroom (over the garage), I drilled a hole using a 25mm spade bit and extension piece. The cable was to come up underneath a worktop with a rad below. Either side of the rad pipe was a joist, so I drilled a hole a few inches in front of the rad pipe so I would...

Here's what I found under the tiles. Some holes in the felt, and evidence of previous repairs to the felt (bitumen marks). Well I cut a patch of felt from the scrapy stuff at the bottom and stuck over the holes with some bitumen felt glue. And cut out sections from 2 tiles to allow...

you can cut out the hole and then take a piece of underfelt an lap it over the felt below and under the felt above then tape it with gaffer tape. As you said it is only there as an emergency back up to the top covering.

yes just make it lager than the hole take a tile of each side, pin felt down then put tiles back then put a couple of bits of baton over hole.

If the ridge is letting in water then every bit of felt(under the tile)will be wet below the point of ingress. I cannot understand every board being wet as the felt protects/prevents the water getting to the board unless there's a hole in the felt. If every board is wet then I'd be looking at...

Hi there I had the rear of my house externally insulated in October. Last week I noticed the wall under my back bedroom window felt a bit damp. My window man came to check it out and said that the drainage holes had been covered over by the new uPVC window cills fitting by the insulation...

You need to get up on the shed roof and put a piece of felt over the hole and slide it under the sheet above it. Make sure there is plenty of overlap around the sides of the hole and nail the patch down into the rafters around the hole.

If the roof covering tiles,slates etc need attention and let the water through the felt catches it and is then supposed to drain down the felt and into the gutter. If you have a hole in the felt then the rain water will drip through. It may be condensation though! the eaves beyond the room...

the felt on your roof is a 2nd defence against water ingress. the 1st being your roof covering, i would get the roof checked for missing/broken or slipped slates/tiles. you can patch up the holes in the felt from inside using slips of type 1f roofing felt.

I'm not sure anyone has really found a long term fix other than re-felting it from above. https://www.diynot.com/diy/search/3678869/?q=hole+in+felt&o=relevance

You need to treat this as a flat roof and fit mineral felt to the deck (with sealed laps), then the battens running in line with the slope, then the tile battens on top. Felt would be preferable to EPDM as the batten fixing holes will self-seal.

Can you get to a DIY store and get a tin of Brushing Felt Adhesive - use to stick patches of your roofing felt over the holes;) thicker than your bitumen paint which is too thin for that job
