During the construction of a temporary structure, expensive materials are usually not used. including for roofing. One of budget options- use of roofing felt. What is this material?

What is only

Tol is a kind of cardboard impregnated with coal or tar products, sprinkled with sand or mineral chips. The material is not very durable, but quite cheap, so it is still popular, despite the abundance of new, modern coatings. Roofing felt, roofing material are usually used in the construction of temporary buildings. For capital structures, more durable materials are used.

Application

What can only be used for? Specifications material allow it to be used for various purposes, depending on the type of dressing. If it is sandy, you can use only for and for the roofs of various temporary buildings. Coarse-grained dressing allows the use of material for the top layer of the coating flat roofs. For example, for sheds and garages.

The special waterproofing roofing does not have a cover layer and sprinkling. The characteristics allow you to protect the foundation, basement and floor from moisture, so it is often laid under the tiles in the bathroom. By itself, concrete passes moisture, so the use of this type of material in this case is fully justified and effective. In addition to insulation from water and steam, roofing felt can be used as a lining material for multi-layer roofing.

Pros and cons

What are the advantages of only? Its technical characteristics do not require special skills when working with the material. Due to the light weight of the rolls, it is possible to work with roofing paper without a partner. The flexibility of the material allows it to be laid at any angle. It will protect the building from rain and snow, from condensation. Roofing felt is an inexpensive material, which allows it to be used in the construction of temporary structures, summer cottages or outbuildings and does not cause serious damage to the budget.

There are also well-known disadvantages that should also be taken into account when choosing what to cover with or what to use for waterproofing the foundation. Tol is easily flammable, not resistant to external influences. In the ground, the material will require additional protection, as well as when using it as a top layer in the roof. In terms of durability, inferior to many modern coatings. Roofing waterproofing will not be one hundred percent. Low temperatures lead to the appearance of cracks on the surface of the material, so it is advisable to lay it in several layers, so you can extend the life of the coating and make it more reliable. Tol is not decorative material, its appearance is unpresentable, and there is no choice of colors. However, he still finds fans, primarily thanks to his low price and ease of working with it.

Roof maintenance

It is necessary to remove fallen leaves and snow from the roof in a timely manner. Special attention this should be given in the fall and spring. At least once every five years, it will be necessary to repair damaged areas and restore protective covering, therefore roofing felt is usually not used in the construction of capital structures.

Modern analogues

The basis of the glass roofing material is a glass cloth impregnated with bitumen on both sides. This material is quite strong and biostable. Typically used to cover industrial buildings and waterproofing.

Rubemast is a built-up cardboard with high-quality bituminous impregnation, surface coating and addition of plasticizers. On the this moment considered the most effective type of roofing material. Its cost is not too high, so it is in great demand.

More long term euroroofing material based on polyester, fiberglass or fiberglass will serve, perfectly suitable for waterproofing.

The choice of material depends on the purpose of its use. Various characteristics allow you to choose the most suitable option.

Tol is not the most durable roofing material, and on the other hand it has a low cost, which makes it quite popular when covering the roof of temporary structures and protecting the foundation from moisture.

Roofing from bituminous components (roofing, roofing material) is usually chosen as a flooring on flat roofs and roofs with a slight slope (sheds, country houses).

Manufacturers produce rolled roofing with a width of 914 millimeters. One of the sides of the coating has a powder of mineral chips, and the other is purely bituminous. Herself roll roofing quite moisture resistant, but if even a little water gets under it (for example, due to cracks in the coating or through loose joints), then such a roof can swell and then the coating needs a small “patched” repair. Of course, the point here is not the aesthetic side of the issue, but the fact that because of these swellings, roofing felt (roofing material) may crack ahead of time, which will result in an increase in the number of leaks.

The method of repairing a swollen roof depends on the area of the swelling. If it is small, then it is necessary to cut through it, then raise the edges of the cut and dry the flooring under the cut thoroughly. Then, on the bottom layer of the roof around the cut, it is necessary to apply roofing glue and press the edges of the cut to the deck.

Then it should be treated with the same glue upper layer roofing around the cut (half a centimeter from the edges is enough). Then you need to cut a patch, a little larger than the cut. nail it and cover its entire surface (and a little next to it) with roofing adhesive. And that's it.

If the swelling is larger, and the roof itself around it has stretched and is also damaged, then you will have to work a little more: first you need to cut (not cut) the entire roof at the site of the swelling and let the flooring dry under the cutout. (Note: if the roof is wavy or wrinkled next to the swelling, then it must be cut not only along the perimeter of the swelling, but also in the “wrinkled” areas, too, up to the place where the roof is flat against the flooring, without bumps and wrinkles). Then it is necessary (as in the first case) to apply roofing glue to the lower part of the edges, then firmly press and nail the edges with nails to the deck and finish everything by applying roofing glue to the entire area of the open deck.

The second step will be the application of the patch itself. To do this, cut out roofing material a patch slightly larger than the cut out area. Nail the prepared patch with roofing (preferably galvanized so as not to rust) nails to the deck. Then apply roofing adhesive to the applied patch and the areas next to it approximately 5 centimeters from the edges.

And the last thing: you can, of course, finish with the previous stage, but, in order to increase the durability of the repaired roof, it is recommended to apply another patch on top of the first one, 10 centimeters larger and wider than the first one, also treat it with glue and nail it. Nail heads should also be treated with roofing glue.
