One type of external coating of the pitched roof is metal tile. This material is inexpensive, special preparation of the surface for installation does not require, unlike a soft roof, you can install it yourself.
What is – metal tile Odessa? This is a galvanized sheet of iron with a thickness of 0.4 – 0.7 mm, covered with a primer on both sides, a coating is applied to the outer surface, either just atmosphere -resistant paint, or, better, a polymer coating, and on the inside – protective varnish. The sheet gives a different profile on special profiling machines. The color scheme of metal tiles is also diverse.
If after installation, in rainy weather there is no desire to listen to the drum rotor on the roof, as well as if the space directly under the roof is living, then it is necessary to perform a number of events in order to subsequently sleep calmly. We proceed from the condition that the rafter beams and the intermediate crate are installed. From below, inside the house, we fix the vapor barrier material with a furniture stapler. Then, on top, between the rafters on the intermediate crate, we lay stoves from stone wool – heat -sound insulation. We mount the waterproofing layer with a slight sagging material. This can be done in two ways: across the rafters (horizontally) or along the rafters. With a horizontal location of the waterproofing, the strip is fixed from the bottom up, with a 100 mm overlook. With a vertical location there is also 100 mm. Then, on the rafters, a bar (a counterparty) with a thickness of 15 – 20 mm is filled along the bars (the counterparty) to provide ventilation between the metal tile and the waterproofing layer. A crate is attached on top of the bars, with a pitch of 350 mm. Now proceed to the installation of sheets of metal tiles. It is fixed with roofing screws with a length of 35 – 40 mm, perpendicular to the surface. The skate profile is fixed at the top. When installing a complex roof, they also use various additional profiles.
The positive aspects of this type of roofing is enough: a long service life (more than 50 years), ease of installation, a variety of colors and shapes, affordable price.
