The algorithm for carrying out work on the installation of a turnkey roof is as follows:
  • Foundation preparation: The setup is a suitable solid flat surface to which nailing is possible. Installation of a roof from a profiled sheet or metal tile can be carried out on a base in the form of battens.

  • Ventilation gap device: This is a very important step because it is necessary to ensure timely removal of moisture from heat-insulating materials, crates and the entire structure as a whole. A properly organized air exchange system helps to reduce the appearance of ice and icicles in winter, as well as lower temperatures in summer. In this case, the gap for air circulation should be at least 3 cm, the exhaust holes should be located in the upper part of the roof, and the inflow — in the bottom.

  • Installation of metal cornice strips: These elements are needed for ensuring the protection of the edges of the crate from a wide range of climatic influences. The planks are laid on the lining material with an overlap of at least 2 cm. The cornice panels are fixed in a zigzag manner with nails in 10 cm increments.
  • Installation of metal slats: These elements are placed on the initial stages of the roof device and are needed to protect the sheathing of the end parts of roofs made of metal tiles. When working, it is necessary to make at least 2 cm on the overlap of the panels.

  • Installation of cornice tiles along the overhangs: Soft or hard elements are laid end-to-end in such a way as to provide a distance of 10-200 mm from the places of inflection of the slats.

  • Direct roofing: It is produced from the center of the eaves along towards the end pieces. It is possible to fix with nails or self-tapping screws (4 pieces per sheet, however, in the case of a roof with a slope of more than 45 ° — at least 6 fasteners).

  • Installation of ridge tiles. It overlaps in the center of the intersection slopes with
    nails or self-tapping screws (2 on each side).
“We did a major overhaul of our roof. Unlike many builders, they were very helpful and easy to deal with - stick to what they say they are going to do or let us know of any changes due to weather etc. They also seem to have done a very good job and we are very pleased with the result.”
