Product Information

Use tile-and-a-half tiles in each course of tiling. All cut tiles abutting the undercloak/soffit should be of identical shape and size to give uniformity. (See table for correct angle of cut) An alternative method is to have the cut edge of the first tile-and-a-half tile adjacent to the next tile; ie so that the vertical tiling meets the undercloak/soffit at 90 degrees) The finish at the apex is best achieved using a shaped piece of tile which is both mechanically fixed and spot bedded. Use tile-and-a-half tiles in each course of tiling, neatly cut to fit close to the undercloak/soffit.

The following illustrations and text explain the common main tile design details that can occur on refurbishment and new work with verge and Winchester cutting Setting out vertical tiling to gable ends

All cut tiles abutting the undercloak/soffit should be of identical shape and size to give uniformity. (See table for correct angle of cut) Where possible, a second nail hole should be drilled or a slot formed with a cutting disk as shown on the drawing.

Mark out the gable end wall so that tiling is fixed to exact half bond and commenced so as to avoid a joint above a joint when finishing at the apex. The second cut tile in each course will vary in size and tile-and-a-half tiles should be used as necessary to avoid narrow cuts.
