INSTALLATION

First, the gutters are thoroughly cleaned.

The mesh is attached to the outer edge of the gutter using colour matching angle trims and tek screws - then taken over the first row of tiles and under the second.

Where the second row of tiles can be lifted, the mesh is tucked underneath letting their weight keep it in place.

The mesh is trimmed to fit around the hips and siliconed into position without interfering with the sand and cement bedding.

Wherever the tiles are bedded-in, the mesh is trimmed along the lip of the second tile and siliconed into place.

The mesh is trimmed and silicone sealed at gutter stop-ends.

The mesh is installed over valley gutters using the secure ‘step’ method …

... where mesh ‘flaps’ are tucked under opposing tiles on either side of the valley and the mesh siliconed off at the ridge of the roof.

Matching colorbond clips or ‘saddles’ hold the mesh in place just above the outer edge of a colorbond roof.
