Best mail-order for J bolts?

Apr 27, 2009 2 Replies

Just acquired a neighbouring garage (rental) - typical '60s sectional concrete stuff, and of course the local y00f have been having a go at the asbestos cement board roof.



Any advice on fixing / strengthening such a thing? It's a low-crime area (small village) rather than downtown Bristol any more, but it still needs all the help it can get.



In particular, where's a good mail-order for things like J-bolts, the hook-shaped bolts that are common for holding down garage roof boards, but not quite common enough for Screwfix or Toolstation? Are

any good?

don't know if they're the cheapest online but they're the only one I've come across.

If there's a decent fall on the roof you could use 'Eternit' slates to replace the asbestos boards. They're quick and easy to use.
