They do.

Some older houses may not have it but more modern ones certainly do. All
the houses we own/have owned have sarking felt.


Huh! Now try and get your builder to use it!
They have latched on to porous membrane in the firm belief that roof
ventilation is no longer necessary. Also try and get them to use the
grade required for your area wind prediction and double sided tape for
laps:-(


A house is being renovated/ modified down the road from us. The work has
being going on some time, weve been away since end of May and it had been
going on for some weeks then, they are about to tile the roof by the looks
of things now. It has new looking sarking felt.
