Without the right roof, garden sheds are left vulnerable to the elements, so it’s crucial that purpose-made materials like shed felt are used. Take a look at our collection of shed roofing felt, suitable for roofing log cabins and summer houses too.
Shed roof felt is a long-lasting, weather-proof material made from compressed cloth, which is used to roof outdoor structures like tool sheds, Wendy houses and other similar non-residential buildings. Once compressed, the cloth is soaked in a petroleum-based substance called bitumen — this is what makes it so durable and watertight, while still being flexible.
Tiger buildings are constructed with shiplap cladding, which is superior tongue & groove timber board with a flush-fit finish. Each solid plank is 12mm thick with scalloping to help prevent water ingress. A smooth, solid, strong barrier pre-treated to meet our high quality standards.
All Tiger sheds are made with tongue & groove timber boards throughout – no cheap and crumbly OSB board at all (unlike some companies we could mention). Our timber is sustainably sourced. We use slow grown European softwood, cut in our woodmill to a high grade.
Tiger garden buildings come with TigerFelt® as standard. This is a thicker, polyester-backed high-grade mineral felt to provide a reliable, weatherproof barrier with reduced wear and tear. Only premium quality roofing felt will do!
We use slow-grown timber in our framing to provide the sturdy support your shed needs. Sustainably sourced, it’s over an inch thick, and rounded for a smoother finish. Slow-grown timber is better quality, and the heavyweight 28x44mm thickness will help the building stand the test of time.
All Tiger buildings come with solid, coated steel fittings for a secure, elegant finish for your peace of mind. Unlike many competitors, all Tiger buildings come with a free door pull as standard.
Beware of imitations which use cheaper styrene plastic windows (which tend to ‘mist’ over time). All Tiger windowed sheds & summerhouse come with 3mm thick toughened glass as standard. This glazing is more shock and heat resistant than normal shed windows, making your Tiger all the more durable. TigerFlex® models also arrive with the glass pre-fitted, making assembly even easier!
We treat our timber with TigerSkin, a specially formulated preservative, developed over many years – for a non-greasy weatherproof seal. This pre-treatment applied to the wood and then carefully dried to give your shed an extra layer of protection 365 days a year.
Your Tiger garden building is simple to put together, using the helpful instructions available, and will look great on a firm & level base constructed from a suitably durable material. We also offer an installation service for all Tiger log cabins.
All Tiger buildings are made to exactly the same high standards, with exactly the same quality timber – so they get exactly the same market-leading Tiger 20 Year Guarantee. Tigers are built to last for decades.
Felting a shed roof is a fairly straightforward process, providing you’ve got the right tools and materials. You’ll need a roll of high-grade roof felt for sheds, a tape measure, a Stanley knife to cut it down to size, some galvanised clout nails and a claw hammer to secure them with.
First, you’ll want to roll the felt out to let it flatten, then when you go to measure it, allow for 35mm of overhang at each end of the roof, before securing it with the clout nails at regular intervals. For a more detailed installation guide, take a look at our article on how to felt a shed roof.
If you’ve got exposed timber, or your shed has started to let in water, it’s likely your roof needs repairing. We recommend removing the finials and fascia before stripping off the old or damaged felt, and being extra careful removing the old nails. You can then either completely or partially replace the shed felt, depending on the scale of the problem — check out our blog on repairing shed rooves for a step by step guide.
