Painting YOUR ROOF

PAINTING A CORRUGATED IRON ROOF – TOP TIPS If you are painting a new iron roof you will need to wash it with a degreaser before you start unless the roof is more then a year old and has weathered.

This means that the oil from fabrication has worn away and the iron has been slightly etched through weathering.

With unpainted iron you will need to prime it first with a suitable primer, this is also the case for any sheets of iron that may have been replaced on an existing roof.

You will need to apply two coats of suitable paint, and the choice of colour is up to you but do remember lighter colours will reflect the heat and darker colours absorb the heat.

Airless spraying is the quickest way to paint any roof and if you decide to paint your roof this way there is a technique to applying the paint. When you are spraying you should spray about a metre wide section and work your way down the sheet, spray in the direction of the flutes in the iron.

If you like you can use the joins in the iron as a guide, it is an easy way to tell exactly where you are at. Once you have worked your way down the sheet and completed that section move back to the top of the roof and repeat for next sheet of iron. You must keep a wet edge at all times and that is why you go back to the top of the roof before it starts to dry, if you decide to work back from the bottom to the top, the top part could have tacked off when you get back up there.

have had any repairs like this done after you have cleaned the roof make sure you use your garden hose and give the roof a final clean - sometimes just a broom will do the trick.

If your roof looks really bad and just about all the colour has gone then you will need to seal the roof first. Most roof sealers/primers dry clear. Make sure you apply plenty, you will need to give the roof a good coating to give it a chance to soak into the tile.

PAINTING A TILED ROOF

When painting a roof make sure you are able to get back down from the roof without having to walk over wet paint. This can be avoided with a little planning before you start.

If you are going to use an airless spray gun to paint the roof try to avoid painting on a windy day as there is always some over spray and it can be carried a long way in windy conditions.

Check the weather forecast. You don’t want to paint your roof if it’s going to rain and if it is going to be hot you are best to start early.

Generally when you are painting a tiled or shingle roof it is because all the existing glaze has worn off and the roof is looking a bit shabby. Some roofs will look better than you think once the cleaning has been done.

With tiled roofs there is an issue with ridge capping, they may need to be fixed before you start painting and it is generally referred to as pointing and bedding of ridge caps. Most will need re-pointing and some may need rebedding. With re-bedding they take off

LET-US

Henri Ham

AWAPUNI NURSERIES

Lettuce salads have been a headliner in my kitchen lately. This hot summer heat we’ve been having has kept me busy watering in the garden, but there’s been lots of harvesting taking place too. This also means I’ve had to replant lettuce seedlings (every few weeks) to continue my prolific supply.

The good thing is, even for the most novice of gardeners, you can’t go wrong planting a few lettuces. They’re simple to grow, quick to produce and take up relatively little room.

I plant my lettuces all year round, but really ramp it up from August through to February. To ensure I don’t get bored of any one type, I like to constantly mix up the varieties I plant. Buttercrunch and cos are great for picking off their

loose leaves as you need them. Drunken woman and great lakes are a larger, more classic-shaped lettuce, that I remember from my younger days. What I also remember is, back then you’d never consider picking a few leaves here and there. You’d always harvest the whole lettuce head at once. How the times have changed!

A new lettuce variety we’ve grown at the nursery this summer is tom thumb. It’s the perfect little lettuce to pop in between rows of other plants. It grows small heads (about the size of a baseball), which are ideal as a gourmet lettuce for one. Contrary to what I just said about picking leaves off your lettuces as you need them, tom thumb is harvested all at once.

Tom thumb has a lovely mild, sweet taste. But the reason it’s a great lettuce to grow at this time of year is it tolerates high temperatures very well and resists bolting. And, being so small, makes it a great candidate to plant in a pot, or alongside other plants such as leeks or beetroot.

You can grab your tom thumb lettuce seedlings from our Awapuni Nurseries online shop and have them delivered

direct to your door. We guarantee satisfaction, and if you’re not entirely happy with your plants when they arrive, we’ll replace them.

Once you’ve got your seedlings, look for a well-drained and sheltered place to plant them. I like to dig in some new compost and sheep pallets at this point too. Then dig some little holes - 3cm deep and 15cm apart.

After this, simply water regularly and watch for slugs. Smaller pots need to be watered daily right now or, if you’ve planted in the ground test with your finger for dryness. If you get one knuckle deep and it’s dry, you’ll know its time to water.

And for the slugs – I recommend slug ‘beer bait’. That’s if you’ve got any spare beer in the house right now. It’s also a fun activity to do with the kids.

In around four to six weeks your tom thumbs should be ready to be harvested. I recommend suggest combining them with grated zucchini, basil, parmesan and your fav dressing for a fresh twist on your summer salad.

Bon appetite.
