Frequently asked questions about roof shingles
What is the minimum roof pitch required for installing roof shingles?
For a secure and waterproof installation, roof shingles should generally be applied to roofs with a minimum pitch of 15 degrees to ensure proper water runoff.
How do I calculate the number of shingles needed for my garden shed?
Measure the total square meterage of your roof surface and check the coverage area specified per pack, keeping in mind that shingles must overlap during installation.
Can I install new roof shingles over an existing layer of roofing felt?
Yes, installing them over a smooth, intact layer of roofing felt is often recommended as it provides an additional waterproof underlayment for the structure.
Which nails should I use to secure the shingles?
You should use galvanised roofing nails with a wide flat head, typically 15mm to 30mm in length, to ensure the shingles are held firmly in place without tearing.
How do I finish the top ridge of the roof?
The top ridge is sealed using a dedicated ridge cover roll, which is laid over the apex and nailed down securely to prevent water ingress at the highest point.
