Onduline Double Roof: A Comprehensive Guide to Installation

Preparation: Site Inspection and Assessment

Before diving into the installation process, it's crucial to conduct a thorough site inspection and assessment. Here are the key steps:

1. Roof Surface Cleaning - Ensure a clean and debris-free existing roof surface.
2. Evaluate Roof Condition and Support Structure - Examine the condition of the roof and support structure. Check rust levels for steel purlins. Assess termite penetration for wooden purlins.
3. Material Estimation and Preparation - Leverage the Onduline Roofing Calculator on the main page for precise product and accessory estimates.

Installation Process: Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Determine Rust and Penetration Levels

Check roof framing and rust levels for steel purlins, apply water-based metal roof paint. For wooden purlins, use termite control pesticides.

Step 2: Measure Slope and Inspect Purlin Spacing

Install main support battens vertically at 800 cm spacing using tekscrews. Screw vertical framings to existing purlins. Apply horizontal battens based on slope: 240 mm on below 10 degrees, 450 mm on 10–15 degrees, 450 mm on >15 degrees.

Step 3: Lay Sheets and Fix Battens

Lay sheets on fixed battens, fixing at the opposite end of prevailing winds. Apply 1 corrugation side lap with 20 cm end overlap and minimum 1 corrugation side overlap.

Step 4: Use Onduline Screws

Always use Onduline Screw. Drill screws through the top of the corrugation, aligning with the center of purlins. Follow specific screw placement guidelines. 

Reminders:

• Minimum of 14 screws/sheet
• 5 screws at each corrugation at the end lap
• 3 screws at the first intermediate purlin of sheet
• 3 screws at the second intermediate purlin of the sheet
• 3 screws at the third second intermediate purlin of the sheet 

Step 5: Ensure Waterproof Quality

Adhere to overlapping rules to ensure long-term waterproofing.

Step 6: Fix the Ridge

Start fixing the Onduline ridge cap at the opposite end of prevailing winds. Fasten the ridge at each corrugation of the overlapped sheet. Maintain a 22 cm minimum overlap between ridges.
