Felting shed roof?.

[keithmac]

Hello all, built my shed last weekend and managed to get the felt up.

Just wonderering what's the best way to finish the sides?, should I leave the felt 10mm lower than the side battens or nail the felt up to the underneath of them.

The second option would be neater but would it cause issues with water wicking round?.

Any comments appreciated!.

Nice timber trim nailed along the roof line with a hospital corner fold and trim excess.

Cheers, I've got the trim for front and back but could pick up some hardwood trim to go along the sides tommorow.

Great idea!.

Trim it and get a nice bit of matching thin timber to finish it.
Maybe 50mm wide ,and screw that over the felt.

Or..as Slick says
I started my reply then stopped for tea..

Been a fair bit of work but finally finished!.

My 2nd Man Cave has ended up as our spa house after "consultation" with my wife..

Put a pourous floor in, made a bench storage seat out if the floor.

No internal "wall" with insulation between.

No I've built it as basically a cover for the Spa, well ventilated and expected to get splashed!.

The spa is around 35/40 degrees when running, will be plenty warm enough.

Might clad the inside of the OSB roof though with something waterproof..
