Can anyone advise on the regulations regarding re roofing to a derelict

house we are about to commence renovating ? Is breathable felt

compulsory and do we need to counterbatten  the roof for an air

gap? Any help and advise welcomed including recommended contractors or

merchants in Sarthe area ( 72 ).

as a builder in uk i would not use anything but breathable felt

its more exspensive but gives longer life than bitumen felts it save a time instead of venting at eaves level

you usauly only double batten in uk  with a smooth tile like slate or stone it also depends if the roof area (loft)is a room and the type of insulation in the voids

hope this is ok this is only in britain but tyvec felt have a great tech dept wich is free
