What else do I need?
Fixing wise, you use the same fixings that you would for the Fibre Cement Sheets which these are fixing to.
Why are 1800mm girths NOT suitable for new roofs?
If you are replacing damaged or existing 1800mm girth ridges, we can supply these to you as a ‘Lie for Like’ REPAIR.
1800mm girth ridges are classed as FRAGILE and therefore if you have a new building, we will insist you purchase 750mm or 900mm girth ridges and not spec 1800mm.
You will need to sign a disclaimer when purchasing these to agree that you understand this.
What if I do not know my roof pitch?
You could find your roof pitch by downloading the Southern Sheeting Mobile App on the Google Play Android or IOS Apple stores (Free), we have an inbuilt pitch finder tool that you can use to discover your roof pitch.
Alternatively, we also supply 2 Piece adjustable ridges to match this profile, this is supplied as an inner and an outer half separately and can adjust to the pitch of the roof.
I have installed these, and the underside appears to have damp patches or is leaking, what should I do?
Part of the natural curing of a Fibre Cement product is that it soaks up more moisture for up to 6 months after it is installed, this creates damp looking patches which would show in random parts on the underside of the product, these may be damp to touch but should not drip. These damp patched may move about.
If the product is leaking and dripping or very damp, there may be an issue with sealing or a fixing, check that sheets are Mitred and that the correct mastic has been used in the correct Lap and End Lap joints of the sheet / fibre cement product. Alternatively, check if the leak is specifically around a fixing point, indicating the fixing is too tight or too loose.
What material is this?
Semi-Compressed Fibre Cement in its natural grey finish.
Are these asbestos?
Fibre Cement does NOT contain asbestos fibres as traditionally used in manufacture of similar products, instead the material is made with a synthetic fibre.
