A1 Roofing Manchester

At Insight Property Solutions, we understand the importance of proper roof batten installation in ensuring the structural integrity and longevity of your roof. As a leading roofing company in Manchester, we have compiled this guide to provide you with essential information on roof battens per m2.

Roof battens are horizontal or sloping timbers that are fixed to the roof rafters, providing a nailing surface for roofing materials such as tiles, slates, or felt. They play a crucial role in supporting the weight of the roofing material and ensuring a secure and weather-tight seal.

The provision of roof battens is governed by the British Standard BS 5534:2014+A2:2018, which recommends a minimum of 25mm x 50mm battens for most roofing applications. However, the actual size and spacing of battens may vary depending on the specific roofing material, roof design, and local building regulations.

The spacing of roof battens is critical in ensuring the structural integrity of the roof. The recommended spacing for roof battens is typically between 300mm to 400mm, with a maximum spacing of 450mm for certain roofing materials. However, it's essential to consult the manufacturer's recommendations and local building regulations for specific guidance.

The gauge of roof battens refers to their thickness. A higher gauge indicates a thinner batten, while a lower gauge indicates a thicker batten. The recommended gauge for roof battens is typically between 1.5mm to 3.0mm, depending on the specific roofing material and application.
