Log Cabin and Shed Roofing Felt

Log Cabin and Shed Roofing Felt – Traditional Mineral Finish

Reliable waterproof protection for your garden buildings.

This grey mineral roofing felt is a classic and effective solution for waterproofing a wide range of outdoor structures, including log cabins, sheds, kennels, and more. Manufactured from durable bitumen, it provides a watertight layer to help protect your timber structure from rain, wind, and debris.

Suitable as a standalone roofing solution or as an underlay for felt shingles or metal roof tiles, this felt is recommended by IKO for its dependable performance.

Key Features:

  • 1.0m x 6.5m

• Waterproof protection for sheds, cabins, and garden buildings

Installation Guidelines:

• Overlap each strip by at least 100mm, always in the direction of water flow

• Use bitumen glue under overlaps, especially on flat roofs or shallow slopes

• Allow 50mm overhang at roof edges for full coverage

• Secure with felt nails every 60mm along overlaps

• For best results, install in mild conditions (8°C to 20°C) – felt becomes brittle in cold and soft in high heat

• Round corners before folding to avoid tearing

• Handle with care during lifting and fitting

Optional Accessories:

• Felt nails (packs of 200 available)

• Bitumen glue for secure overlaps

Pleasae Note: All roofing felt must be handled carefully during installation. Avoid sharp bends and dragging to prevent tearing. Proper handling and fitting will extend the lifespan and performance of the material.
