    The rolls are about 1 1/2 metres tall and need cut up to fit between the joists (lol).

    I had a courtesy call to say they are overwhelmed by the number of orders but they expect a delivery in the the next day or two and will deliver it to me the next day, good service from them so far.

    If anyone in the Greater Manchester area has ordered too much and has a spare roll I would gladly collect it - we missed out on this and only need one or two rolls to do our kitchen/outhouse roof which is freezing in the winter.

    I ordered 29 of the thicker stuff (think that was the max). Not heard anything yet but have my email confirmation of order safely filed. Might give them a buzz at the weekend.

    Very much like this - notice the dotted lines where they need to be cut.

    Why don`t you lay them ACROSS the joists instead of betweem them?

    My joists are only 75mm (3 inches)high so laying across could be done.

    Did you not build up to the top of the joists first??
    Or did you just lay new over old??
