Roofing battens provide the fixing point for laying of roofing materials like shingles or tiles. In Burton, John Brash timber battens like the famous JB Red battens are manufactured from high grade European red or whitewood and treated to provide a 60-year warranty. Hence, you can be sure that your roof will remain secure for more than half a century! Other types include JB Green Battens which are fully compliant with the British Standard for Roofing Battens. This ensures that the batten is capable of complete load sharing and load bearing, based on the size, dimensions and shape of the roof and also the type, weight and size of the roofing materials used above.
