Remove torn felt from summer house roof, and renew. Summer house made of 1" timber, apex roof, requiring 2 rolls of good quality felt. Summer house has barge boards each end and board covers at gutter level, but no gutters. Size approx 12' x 10' and10' at apex.

Obviously had never felted a roof before. First, used a thin underfelt instead of a thicker mineral-finish felt (which was taken off the roof for renewal). Second, did not know how to form a drip edge, even nailing timber where water runs off the roof, making the timber rot.. Underfelt has since buckled and pulled away from the clout nails, requiring repairs within a year. Might be good at gardening, but no knowledge of roofing. Sorry I chose them off the internet for my son. Very expensive.
