There are a few splits and some missing piece of roofing felt in our loft. The bitumen stuff I have for felt doesn't really work upside dow
- as I found to my cost! I have found some "liquid rubber" from the might B&Q and this claims to stick felt. It does. However it takes at least 12 hours to set. Standing in the loft holding a felt patch on for 12 hours does not appeal to me so I wonder if anyone has some clever way to hold the felt in place which the rubber adhesice cures? My thinking stops at wedging pieces of hardboard etc between the roof joists - but that doens't really work as only "hold" in one spot. Any ideas? Thanks
ps The felt in the loft is 40 years old. The above excepted, of looks in good condition. The new felts I see in B&Q etc seem a different type of thing. For starters the new stuff has "grains" which fall off all the time whereas the old stuff is dry and dust free and black - not "almost black". So - perhaps I am using the wrong type of felt? Your help would be appreciated.
