How to install the roofing felt?

1. Preparations

Before installing the roof felt, it is important to make sure that the roof surface is clean and flat. If necessary, remove the old roofing materials and check the condition of the roof. Also, make sure you have the necessary tools and protective gear.

2. Roof blanket installation

1. Start by installing the underlay on the surface of the roof. The underlay protects the roof from moisture and dirt.

2. Cut the roofing felt into pieces of suitable size and place them on the roof. Attach the felt to the roof surface with, for example, nails or glue.

3. Pay attention to the slope of the roof and install the roof felt so that the water flows in the right direction.

3. Finishing

After the roofing felt has been installed, check the condition of the entire roof and make sure that all seams and joints are tight. If necessary, you can add roof security products, such as snow barriers or roof bridges.
