We fasten the metal tile. Quite often, the metal tile is acquired with the aim of updating the roof of the house, or for laying the roof in a new house. At the same time, buyers take into account that the service life of a roof from high -quality metal tiles may exceed fifty years, and are ready to go to considerable costs for the acquisition of this roofing material. Moreover, not everyone knows that such a high service life can only be provided if the technology of laying it is observed.
Mistakes when laying can turn into very disastrous consequences, when the roof repair is required after a very short period. A very important point that should be taken into account when acquiring the tile itself is the selection of high -quality fasteners. Ordinary building universal self -tapping screws are not at all suitable for fastening metal tiles. For these purposes, special roofing screws are used.
In addition to the fact that the screw itself is made of corrosion-resistant material, a sealing washer is included in the kit, on the lower side of which there is a layer of ethylene-protopylene rubber. Wages with rubber seals are found, but rubber is not able to withstand heat and cold for several decades. It will simply dry out and crack. Pay attention to this by purchasing fasteners.
