Abstract: The invention relates to a method of fixing roofing tiles to a roof structure. This method includes the steps of laying a lower tile on a tiling batten, passing a fastener through a preformed hole in the lower tile and engaging the batten, laying an upper tile on the lower tile in overlapping arrangement and finally connecting the upper tile to the fastener by a suitable clip.The invention also provides a roofing tile fixing clip for securing overlapping roofing tiles to a roofing structure. The clip includes a body portion, a foot adapted to engage a fastener secured to the building structure, and a hook to engage the upper tile of the overlapped tiles.

Abstract: A roof tile fastening clip for securing a tile to a batten. The clip structure is formed of a body portion with a hook shaped configuration at one end and a nail or similar fastener incorporated at the opposite foot end.

Abstract: A tile clip for attaching roofing tiles to the tiling battens having a pair of hooks to engage over the edges of both an upper and lower tile to hold both tiles in place. The lower end of the clip may have opposed hooks to engage both side flanges of a metal batten or means to allow the clip to be nailed to a wooden batten.

Abstract: A roof edging for finishing gable ends of tiled roofs comprising edging strips having flanges which pass over the edge tiles and between the tiles and the tiling battens. Clips engage the inner contour of the edging strips and are fastened to the battens.

Abstract: A tiling system for roofs comprising a metal tiling batten within which the upstanding lug of a bracket is slidably attached, the bracket being fixed to a roof-rafter. The system may use standard batten lengths connected end-to-end by butt-joiners engaged within the batten ends. Tile clips may engage the edges of tiles and a groove or grooves in the battens. The system is applicable to hip or valley roof construction.

Abstract: A roof eave assembly for tiled roofs includes a sarking support running beneath the tiles and over the upper edge of a fascia board to give a firm sloping support for sarking. The support includes a flange in front of the fascia board in spaced relationship therewith and spaced apertures to allow the support to be fastened to the fascia board and to the roof rafters. When in use, the eave course of tiles may be secured to the fascia by means of spaced eave tile clips snapped onto the front flange of the sarking support.

Abstract: A clip secure a roofing ridge- or hip-cap to a building structure. The lower part of the clip is anchored to the building structure and the upper part passes between adjacent cap pieces, forming the continuous roof capping, and overlies the upper surfaces of both cap pieces. The clip is adjustable to suit the requirements of individual applications.

Abstract: A method of anchoring ridge-capping or hip-capping to the structure of a building. A rail fitted with a series of clips moveable therealong is secured to a hip- or ridge-board. Flanges on the clips engage the upper surfaces of a series of end-to-end cap sections forming a continuous roof capping above the rail. The clips are adjustable to suit individual applications.
