FEBRUARY 06 - THE IMPORTANCE OF ROOFING UNDERLAYS IN REDUCING THE RISK OF DAMAGE CAUSED BY WIND UPLIFT

Wind Uplift Damage Some 200,000 buildings are damaged by high winds in the UK every year, costing the British economy up to £800+ million. With a predicted increase in the frequency and severity of storms in the UK and Ireland and the increase in wind speeds it is now more important than ever to recognise the part that roofing underlays play in preventing tiles or slates being dislodged from roofs. Glidevale have produced a new White Paper outlining the role of Roofing Underlays in reducing the risk of wind uplift and the potential restrictions on use.
