Product Information

Full details

The Timloc Roof Felt Support Tray is an essential component for both professional roofing contractors and DIY enthusiasts involved in roof construction or maintenance. Its primary function is to maintain a clear ventilation path between roof insulation and the roofing felt, effectively mitigating the risk of condensation and preventing the deterioration of the felt at the eaves. While it is highly efficient at moisture management, users should note that the 600mm length is fixed, meaning installations for non-standard eave spacing may require specific cutting or overlapping to ensure full coverage.

FAQs

Does this tray require special tools for installation?

No, it can be easily installed using standard hand tools like a hammer or drill for fixing.

Can I use these on a flat roof?

No, these are specifically designed for pitched roof eaves where ventilation paths between felt and insulation are required.

How many trays do I need?

Measure the total length of your eaves and divide by the 600mm length of the tray, then add a small percentage for overlap and wastage.

Is the material resistant to UV light?

The material is designed to be installed under the roof covering, where it is protected from direct, long-term UV exposure.

Can these be used with all types of roofing felt?

Yes, they are compatible with both traditional bitumen felt and modern breathable roofing membranes.

Troubleshooting

Tray is not sitting flat against the fascia

Ensure no old roofing felt or nails are obstructing the seating area.

Difficulty fitting into a tight eaves space

Trim the rear edge of the tray slightly to clear obstructions, ensuring you maintain the required ventilation path.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents long-term roof structure damage
  • Easy to install for both pros and DIYers
  • Improves overall ventilation efficiency
  • Lightweight and easy to handle
  • Compatible with most standard roof pitches

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement for overlap
  • Fixed 600mm length may lead to offcuts
  • Cannot be used on roofs with zero ventilation requirement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the tray, start by removing any debris from the top of the fascia. Position the tray so that it spans the gap between the fascia and the top of the wall plate. Where multiple trays meet, ensure an overlap of at least 50mm to maintain a continuous moisture barrier. These trays are compatible with most standard concrete and clay roof tiles as well as slate roofing systems. Regarding care, the trays are essentially maintenance-free once installed; however, it is recommended to inspect the guttering annually to ensure that no debris has built up around the tray discharge point, which could impede water flow.
