STEP 33
Bend the shingles over at the end of
the roof and using Clout Nails (y) fix
in place.
STEP 34
Repeat steps 31, 32 and 33 to complete
this side of the roof. The last row
should cover the top of the apex rafter.
DO NOT WORK ON THE ROOF
WITHOUT A BOARD TO
DISTRIBUTE THE LOAD.
STEP 35
Shingle the other side of the roof
following the same procedure. The last
row of shingles should cover the top of
the apex rafter.
STEP 36
Take one of the eave shingles and split
it into three sections. The shingles are
scored at the correct places to enable
this to be easily done.
STEP 37
The split shingles are used to complete
the apex of the roof.
Starting at one end of the apex rafter,
fix one of the shingles in position to
align with the edge of the fixed
shingles and equally spaced either side
of the apex.
Use two Clout Nails (
y
) to fix it in
place on the side where the next
shingle will cover them. Remember to
remove the protective plastic from the
back of the shingle.
STEP 38
Continue to fix the shingles until the
apex is completed. The last shingle
should be cut to remove the same
amount that has been covered on
those previously fitted.
NO NAILS SHOULD BE PUT IN
THE FINAL SHINGLE
. It may be
necessary to glue this if the bitumen
doesn’t fix it (glue not supplied).
STEP 39
Using screws (
v
) fit the fascia boards
to the ends of the roof. The fascias
should hide the shingles overlapped
from the roof. It may be necessary to
trim the shingles at the end of the
apex rafter.
STEP 40
Take one of the Soffit Boards (
15
) and
fix it to the ends of the curved beams
of the roof using screws (
w
).
STEP 41
Fix the soffit board to the other side of
the roof to complete the build.
