We supply firrings and tile lath specifically designed for professional roofing applications across the North East. Our firrings create the essential fall required for proper roof drainage, while our tile lath provides secure fixing points for slate and tile installations. These specialised timber components form crucial elements in both new builds and renovation projects, ensuring weathertight roofing systems that comply with building regulations. Available in various sizes to suit different roof pitches and tile specifications, our products deliver reliable performance at competitive trade prices.
Firrings work by creating graduated slopes on flat roof areas, directing water towards guttering systems and preventing ponding that could compromise structural integrity. Our roof timbers range includes various firring dimensions to achieve specific falls, typically ranging from 25mm to 50mm thickness. These precision-cut components integrate seamlessly with existing roof structures, providing the exact angles required for effective water management in both residential and commercial applications.
Tile lath serves as the foundation for secure slate and tile fixing, offering consistent spacing and robust attachment points. Manufactured from kiln-dried softwood, our lath maintains dimensional stability under varying weather conditions. The smooth, splinter-free finish ensures easy installation while providing excellent holding power for traditional fixings. Both firrings and tile lath work together in comprehensive roofing systems, supporting proper installation techniques that extend roof lifespan and maintain weather resistance.
