Fixing Instructions
FixMaster is a guaranteed tile and batten fixing specification service tailored to individual roof designs. It's our high technology solution to incorrect fixing providing the most cost-effective specification to comply with British Standards.As no two roofs are the same, FixMaster takes into account all variable factors including roof geometry, location and products used. A full assessment is made of any nearby tall structures, natural topographical features or, in the case of airports in the locality, pressures generated by aircraft trailing wake vortices.

- Reform Eaves Filler Units must be used at all eaves situations.
- At left-hand verges, use Standard Tiles with interlocks removed. At right-hand verges, use Standard Tiles. Half Tiles must not be used at verges.
- Dentil slips must be used for mortar bedded ridges and hips.
- Half Tiles should be used to avoid the use of small pieces of tiles.
