Question:
I need to cover 11 metres of ridge board. The installation guide says to lay them with the sides folded around the ridge. How many packs do I need for this length?

If you need to cover an 11m ridge then one pack cut down into tabs will achieve this.
Question:
Hi how many packs will I need for summer house roof of 15sq m
Answer:
Each pack covers 2m² so for this area you would need 8 packs.
Question:
Can these tiles be placed on top of existing mineral felt roof on pent summerhouse with 5⁰ pitch?
Answer:
That is below the min pitch advised for them, but if the roof is waterproof and sound with its current covering you should be fine to lay these over as a decorative finish.
If the shingles were to be the main waterproofing layer we would not advise it as below the recommended min pitch.
Question:
what size shed or summer house will this 2m2 pack cover?
Answer:
This covers an area of 2m², so you would need to work out the area of your roof to know the number of packs required.

Answer:
1kg of nails and 3 tubes of adhesive would cover this for you.

Is there a minimum recomended pitch on the roof of a summer house to fit your shingles?
Answer:
Minimum reccomended pitch is 15°.
Question:
Do you need to use nails to fix or would adhesive alone be sufficient?
Answer:
You need to use nails and adhesive to fix these.
Question:
can i use breather membrane instead of felt underlay?
Answer:
It would not really offer the same support as the felt shingle underlay but you could use it.
Question:

Question:
Is there a ridge tile that 'folds' over the ridge to go with this product? i have approx 16sq. meters to cover so I assume 9/10 packs would be best? Assume also they are fixed with clout nails? Thanks for your help.

Yes you would fix with clout nails, there is not a specific ridge you would need to cut the shingles in a pack down to create a ridge see the installation guide above for instructions on this.

Each tab is approx 250mm wide.

Hi I’ve got a 5x3 meter roof to do how many packs will I need
