I have just finished building my 14ft x 10ft shed it has a double
layer felt roof but i still get water comeing in and i have looked for
a gap in the felt but can not see where its coming from, it has a
8inch slope on it, so instead of refelting would it be possible to
cover the roof in hot bitumen? As this might be the cheaper option as
a burner from hss is only £15 any ideas how much the bitumen is ? as i
notice BQ do a aquaseal roof repair 5 litres for £15, ideas or
suggestions please.


Whilst I don't have experience of the material used for roofing
purposes I wonder if glass fibre might be a better option?

Felt roofs have always proved troublesome in my experience. If I had
to do another flat roof project I'd certainly consider glass fibre as
an option.
