Roof felt is the first line of defence against Scottish rain. When it fails, leaks damage everything inside. Our refelting service strips old felt and applies new, heavy-duty covering that keeps your shed watertight for years.
Service Overview
Roofing felt has a limited lifespan — typically 5-10 years for standard felt in Scotland's climate. UV exposure, frost cycles, wind stress and moss growth all degrade felt until it cracks, splits or lifts, allowing water into the shed.
Refelting is one of the most common and cost-effective shed maintenance jobs. It extends the life of an otherwise sound shed by many years, and is far cheaper than replacing the entire structure.
We offer three roofing options: standard mineral felt (economical), heavy-duty mineral felt (our recommendation), and EPDM rubber membrane (premium, 25+ year lifespan). All are professionally installed with proper laps, sealed edges and adequate overhang.
Problems We Solve
Leaking Roof
New felt immediately stops leaks and protects your shed contents from water damage.
Cracked & Brittle Felt
We strip old felt completely and apply new material — no patching over failures.
Wind-Lifted Felt
We secure felt with proper fixings and adhesive at all edges and laps to resist Scottish winds.
Moss-Damaged Felt
We remove moss growth, clean the roof panels, and apply new felt that resists moss establishment.
Ponding Water
We check roof panels for sag and add support if needed before refelting to ensure positive drainage.
Condensation
New felt with breathable membrane options reduces condensation build-up in the roof space.
Our Process
Strip
We remove all old felt, fixings and adhesive to expose the bare roof panels.
Inspect
We check roof panels and purlins for damage, replacing any weakened timber before re-covering.
Apply
New felt is laid with proper laps (minimum 75mm), sealed at all edges and fixed securely.
Finish
We check the complete roof for coverage, seal all edges, and clear away all old materials.
