Choosing the right batten in Newcastle ensures that your roof remains secure. Our top quality timber roofing battens are in compliance with British Standards. This means that they can handle moisture content. In addition, the batten courses are true for both horizontal and vertical aspects. Battens are long strips that are in construction either as spacers, or as a support or secondary framework on which other structures can be placed such as tiles. Though they’re mainly used in roof construction, battens are also in wall, flooring or ceiling construction. While constructing traditional roofs, the battens are on the main structure of the roof. Tiles or shingles can then be correct on this framework. This ensures that the tiles are in straight lines. Battens are also useful in fastening nails or clips to the tiles.
We offer, in Newcastle, batten that are from one of the best names in the business. They are available according to your specific requirements. These battens will comfortably take the load of your roof and roofing materials. They help the roof to withstand the load of snow or rain, and remain intact in the face of strong winds. Although battens are not visible once the roof is complete, they are as essential as the skeleton is to the human body. It is important to get the right timber, size, depth and width to suit your particular roof structure. They anchor the tiles and ensure that your roof stays strong, durable and good looking.
Battens in Newcastle are according to the roof size and plan. The span of the roof, type of covering and the pattern in which tiles are play an important part. Roofers often use battens for support to stand on while they’re laying tiles. This is one more reason why you should choose strong and good quality battens. If the timber is of poor quality, it can lead to accidents, injury or even death when the person falls from a height.
