Felt on roof of conatainer
-
18-08-2011 10:49pm#1All,
our football team currently has a 40x8ft shipping container for storage. It has a flat roof that has felt on it. (rough calc would be 35sq.m area)
Recently it has started to leak inside
Looking at the felt it appears pretty old. Thinking of replacing (at moment just adding bitumen paint as short term solution)
Obviuosly trying to do roof on smallest budget:
Could we strip off existing felt. Brush clean (water/detergent). Apply corrosion inhibit spray in places .Apply Bitumen Primer (maybe doesnt need corrosion ihib if bitumen primer used?)
then either:
A)Apply cold felt adhesive and then roll out normal felt? (the existing felt has a silver finish - might be painted).
B)Self adhesive felt.
What felt would be recommeneded? method etc..hoping to just pay for materials (might be on donedeal/adverts/gumtree etc....). Any ideas on price for such a DIY project?0
