1F Reinforced Slaters Felt – Bat-Friendly Roofing Underlay 15m x 1m | Traditional Type 1F Bitumen Felt

1F Reinforced Slaters Felt – Traditional Bat-Friendly Roofing Underlay for Pitched Roofs

The 1F Reinforced Slaters Felt – Bat-Friendly Underlay (15m x 1m) is a premium traditional Type 1F bitumen roofing felt designed for use beneath slate and tile roof coverings on ventilated pitched roof systems. Trusted by roofers and builders across the UK for decades, this hessian-backed reinforced underlay provides a durable secondary waterproof barrier that helps protect your roof structure from wind-driven rain, snow, and moisture.

Manufactured in the UK to a proven specification, this roofing felt is also certified bat-friendly, making it suitable for properties where bats are present or may be roosting. This is particularly important for renovation, conservation, and re-roofing projects where compliance with wildlife legislation is essential.

Traditional Secondary Roof Protection

The 1F Reinforced Slaters Felt is installed beneath slates or roof tiles to create a dependable secondary waterproofing layer. Should rain, snow, or moisture penetrate the primary roof covering, the underlay helps prevent water from reaching the roof structure, protecting timber, insulation, and internal roof components.

Its reinforced hessian backing improves durability during installation and provides excellent resistance to tearing, making it well suited to demanding roofing applications.

Bat-Friendly Roofing Felt

Unlike some modern roofing membranes, this Type 1F reinforced felt is certified as bat-friendly, making it suitable for use where bats are known or suspected to be present.

  • Listed buildings
