I know in the end it will be me that ends up fitting it which I don't really have time. I am struggling to find a capable person to fit. Any guidance appreciated.ĭo you have a spec sheet for fitting the sheets. I would have thought a 50mm horizontal batten at the very least. Surely in a strong wind the uplift on the screws for the horizontal batten at 25mm is too much. Hi hope the roof installation went well.any lessons learnt?Īlso I cannot find any guidance re batten size. Our roofers, architect and building control haven't said a thing about it either Win and rain has been the main concern for us, the insect and rodent issue hasn't been. It'd probably be only a little bit of extra effort, but I can imagine installing the sheets on top of that will get quite faffy. I guess you could place instect or rodent mesh along with the first line of counter battens to your structure, with your foam filler stapled against the counter batten and topped with mastic tape, ready for when you install the corrugated on top. We've battented and counter battented with standard treated battens, 38 by 25mm.
