sam Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I thought I'd find this with an easy search but I've not managed to find anything useful here or otherwise online. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using Eaves Felt (5U) vs using Felt Support Trays? Eaves Felt is slightly cheaper (c. £25 for 16m) than cheap Felt Support Trays (c. £2 for 1.5m minus overlap). There appear to be much more expensive Felt Support Trays but I can't see anything obviously better about these. My question is general but for context or if there is anything specific I should consider, I'm roofing a steep (45 degree) garage roof using fibre cement slate tiles and a breatherable membrane (135gsm Cromer Vent 3).

Radian Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I'd go with plastic. "Polyester reinforced bitumen" doesn't overcome my instincts regarding how bitumen degrades over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
