Leaking shed roof. Good company?

Hi, im based in Middlesbrough Uk. Have bought a house in august with a garden shed and have just noticed the shed is leaking on the 2 outer edges of the roof. What is the best thing to do to sort it out? I can do light diy eg painting, fixing shelves and jobs around the house but not sure if this would be too big a job to attempt.

Can anyone recommend a good value company to get in?

Thanks

Leaking shed roof. Good company?
The easiest way is to buy some shed felt.



it comes on a roll for around ￡10 you can completely re-cover your entire shed roof with it.

You can buy better felt for proper roofs but it's a bit more expensive, shed felt will do.



They sell it in many places such as B%26amp;Q, Focus, Wickes, etc which are all at Portrack Lane close to you.

You need some Galvanised Clout nails too as you just nail it on, it's very easy.

Clout nails have a very large head so they don't go all the way through the covering.



The link below shows you how to do it, should take you an hour at the absolute maximum, more like a half hour job although get another pair of hands to make it easier.

Do the lower parts of the roof first and then ove over the top to help prevent rain getting through.

Any small holes you have can be filled with an outdoor sealant, about ￡5 a tube.

Also, one thing to remember that the felt on the roll is quite heavy so you might need a lift onto the car and out.



And if you get really stuck just give me a shout, i'm in Coulby Newham!
Reply:The obvious answer as recommended is to renew the roofing felt, But you can purchase online from,' Screwfix Direct ', a roofing sealent ￡10 a kilo called ,' Flexacryl Roof Sealent ', which you paint on. It will feel gaps also.
Reply:go to a roofing yard (look in yellow pages)..get a roll of torch on felt ...this is very strong and will last at least twenty years ..its normally 1metre deep by 10metres long ..i don't know how big your shed is so cant you how much to buy ....start at bottom .and make it 200mm longer than roof ...turn 100mm down each side to prevent leaks from driving wind ..over lap bottom sheet with next sheet by at least 100mm..again turning down sides ...do both sides like this ..then cover over ridge fixed down both sides with an overlap ...the felt can be fixed with big headed felt nails...do NOT buy shed felt ..its rubbish ...trust me here torch on felt is superior
Reply:Can you give me more details please. What roof covering is on the shed? Where on roof is leak? I do not understand outer edge.
