Sarking |
Due to the large expanses of roof, sarking is standard.
This benefits reduction in condensation inside the stable as well
as strengthening the complete structure. |
|
Alternative |
Also available is Alloy profile clad roofing or ONDUSTEEL, metal tiled
effect sheeting.
We can also offer BARDOLINE which is a weatherproof
shingle tile.
All are available in a wide range of colours laid over a sarking deck as standard. |
|
Daylight |
We can provide translucent sheets in the roof by cutting holes in the sarking deck.
To enhance the benefits of sarking we either offer a 2.4 x 300mm polycarbonate panel to each upper external stall wall or paired clear adjustable louvres.
|
|
Treatment |
All exterior and ground contact timbers are fully pressure treated to
BS4072/ 5268 and guaranteed against rot and insect damage for 15 years. External panels are finished in an environmentally sympathetic natural
light green colour. This requires no further treatment (e.g.
creosoting) but the use of a water repellent like Thomson's Waterseal
is recommended. The panels are also stainable to a wide range of
colours. |
