⚡ At a Glance
- • Weather Resistance: Reinforced polyester base with mineral-granule surface resists UV and heavy rain
- • Best for: Owners of sheds, summerhouses, kennels and other non-habitable outbuildings
- • Not ideal for: Roofs with a pitch below 20 degrees or for use on habitable buildings
Two 5m x 1m rolls, each covering 5m², give a combined coverage of 10m². The material has a rated life expectancy of 10 years and a minimum roof pitch of 20 degrees.
Long-lasting weather protection - with reinforced polyester and mineral-granule surface
Base carrier is 140g reinforced polyester, with an upper finish of mineral granules and a lower surface of silica sand; thickness ranges from 1 to 1.5mm. The surface granules reduce UV exposure while the polyester core resists moisture ingress.
Durable covering helps keep out rain and sunlight damage for years, reducing the need for frequent repairs. Suitable for seasonal UK weather where sustained resistance to UV and rain matters.
High tear resistance during handling and wind exposure - thanks to heavy-duty construction
Each roll weighs about 12kg and the thicker, heavy-duty construction offers stronger tear resistance compared with many traditional membranes. The felt can be used as a single-layer roof covering when fixed correctly.
Less likelihood of rips while cutting or nailing, which speeds installation and reduces waste. Stronger edges and body hold up better under gusty conditions.
Easy to size and fit for common outbuildings - with 5m x 1m roll dimensions
Roll dimensions are 16.4 x 3.2 ft (5m x 1m), giving 5m² coverage per roll and 10m² for the pair. The format allows simple overlaps and trimming to match typical shed roof pitches and shapes.
Quick to lay out, cut and tack in place for DIYers and professionals alike, making it practical for medium-sized sheds and summerhouses. Two-roll packs suit straightforward replacement jobs without complicated joins.
