Basic stages of laying of metal roofing

Metal tile is a popular modern roofing material. Very simple installation. All the necessary work on the arrangement of the roof can be completed in a short time.

Proper delivery organization determines the first step of successful installation. While engaged in the transportation of metal, it is forbidden to lay heavy loads to avoid deformation of the sheets. The length of the body must correspond to the length of the sheets, and unloading and loading is carried out by soft slings into the machine. Dragging sheets by drag - is one of the gross mistakes in the transportation of metal. You need a vertical position, which prevents deformation of the sheets. The probability of damage is possible in the case of metal roofing on the ground.

The first step is the installation of rafters. There is no need for a strong foundation for laying the metal tile, it is enough to have a regular lath for installation. The choice of the crate determines the type of metal tile (http://www.euro-molodi.ru/index_metal.html), as this is due to a certain distance between the screws. Screws are used for fixing roofing sheets.

The next stage concerns the size of the insulation, which affects the choice of rafters. The distance between them is affected by the size of the attic windows, which must be determined in advance.

The next stage is the internal filing of the roof. To do this, use a vapor barrier material and a film "Yutafol" or "Izospan" with a heater. The mechanism of work is the following - the space between the runs and rafters must be completely filled. Further, a hydrothermal insulation film is used, which is fixed by brusks.

When all the necessary preparatory operations have been completed, the installation of the metal tile itself is in the queue. The initial stage of installation provides for aligning the lower edge of the first sheets with the cornice. Next is the final fastening, however, you can not mount the metal sheets end to end. Essential in this matter is the choice of self-tapping screws and their fastening. The most high-quality and strong, in the opinion of experts, is considered to be a downward mount, otherwise complications are possible. After the installation is completed, it is recommended to tighten the screws for 3 months.

The assembly is facilitated by the installation plans and detailed instructions provided by the producers of metal tile. Acquisition of materials with a set for laying metal shingles will provide a single whole roof.
