I need to re-felt the roof of my shed, do i stick or nail the new felt down?

Staples will do just fine. Nail down the roofing with galvanized roofing nails.I need to re-felt the roof of my shed, do i stick or nail the new felt down?
You should use roofing felt nails but also do not remove the old felt, just refelt the roof over the existing felt..I need to re-felt the roof of my shed, do i stick or nail the new felt down?
Is it metal...wood?? metal=stick..wood=nail.
you want to go to the hardware store and get the felt nails...its the best way to go. They will know exactly what to get for you!
nail all but the top sheet stick that with cold lap felt adhesive.
Use that stuff they use for plastic windows.
you can do either but sticking it down is going to give you more protection in the long run. nails obviously leave holes leaving it open to rain which will eventually rot your shed.
Holes can leak
Seal seams with tar,nail it,then tar over the nails for more protection.
Use nails and to be on the safe side use adhesive on the edges. be careful on that roof....
yep felt nails.
you can bye a cold compound from the builders merchant that will allow you to stick the felt down instead of youseing hot bitchamin,its allways better than nailing it.
Nails if you are putting shingles over it (which you definitely should). Felt if you are not shingling it.
you have use tar and nails.... tar seals the layers and nails hold it in place.... make sure each layer covers the last set of nails so it wont leak
need to nail it down. the newer water barriers have a rubber bound sheet on top of the felt. Use galvanized roofing nails.





also, over lap the felt so that your previous row of nailheads sit under the felt paper from the previous roll. start from the bottom and work your way to the top.





You can dab a little tar on the nail head too to seal that puppy down real good.
Staple gun.
Nail it down
well i guess nail depends on the roof under the felt
BOTH TAR THE EDGES ,NAIL IT DOWN THEN TAR THE NAIL HEADS.
My boyfriend is a roofer with 15 years experience,with all guilds and federations under his belt.He says don't nail it as nails will cause a leak eventually if exposed.Felt nails should only be used for the first vented layer of a three layer felt system or drips and flashing's.He advises to re-board or felt primer for the existing roof covering and then use green mineral torch on felt making sure it is lapped over at the ridge capping and don't forget to start at the bottom!!!





Hope this helps in your DIY quandary!
staple it down.
why only felt? there is no finished roofing on the roof of this shed?
One more vote for felt nails.
