Refurbished pitched roof

Description

WALLTITE can be applied directly onto the underside of existing slate or tiled roofs. It seals any air gaps, preventing the ingress of windblown snow, rain, dust and unwanted air infiltration.

The water vapour permeability of WALLTITE permits all roof timbers to dry out following periods of solar radiation.

WALLTITE is applied between rafters in sloping ceiling areas and loft conversions. Plasterboard can then be fixed to the rafters.

In applications such as barn conversions the foam is dubbed out with a coat of bonding plaster and then finish plaster. Existing structures must be in a good state of repair with no evidence of rain penetration or damp. Defects should be made good prior to installing the product. WALLTITE also reduces airborne noise pollution from air and road traffic.
