Roofing

[icon] - Question

Why do I have more RH ¾ tiles than LH ¾ tiles?

[icon] - Answer

Wherever possible tiling should be carried out from right to left beginning with a full tile on the very first course then introduce a RH ¾ tile on the course above and on alternative courses thereafter, this will achieve the broken bond in the tiling pattern. At the opposite verge or hip/valley a tile & half would be introduced and cut to suit. The LH ¾ would only be used when tiling on a LH verge into a hip or valley. The LH ¾ tile is minus the interlock and this is an easy way to distinguish the difference between the LH & RH ¾. As with the RH ¾ tile this would also be used on alternative courses.
