Bradford Thermoseal Roof Tile and Roof Tile Plus Sarking

 

Bradford Thermoseal Tile Roof Sarking creates a protective layer under tiles that helps keep out wind-driven rain, dust and embers for a more comfortable home. It acts as a drainage plane to channel any water that gets past the tiles to the gutter, and its reflective surface helps reduce summer heat gain inside the roof.

Designed for new builds and re-roofing with concrete or terracotta tiles, this Australian-made, non-permeable vapour barrier supports compliant bushfire detailing across BAL zones and installs cleanly for a neat finish, backed by CSR Bradford technical support and warranty.

Features and Benefits

 

Thermoseal works like a second skin under tiled roofs, helping block wind-driven rain and ember pathways while directing incidental water safely to the gutter, reducing the risk of leaks, staining and hidden moisture issues. Its reflective facing assists with thermal performance by reducing heat flow through the roof, and the tough, tear-resistant membrane lays flat and tapes neatly so crews can dry-in faster and deliver a consistent result that lasts. Not recommended under metal sheet roofing.

Use Thermoseal Roof Tile Sarking wherever a tough, reflective sarking layer is needed under tiles to boost weather defence, bushfire resilience and install efficiency.

  • Under tiled roofs (cement or terracotta) for new builds and re-roofing
  • Low-pitch roofs (<18°): sarking is required, regardless of rafter or truss chord length
  • Exposed sites: added protection for the building structure from the elements to allow internal site-works to commence before the roof tiles are installed
  • Compliant for BAL requirements: Thermoseal Roof Tile is suitable for BAL 12.5-FZ requirements
  • Not for metal roofs: this product is not recommended under metal sheet roofing
  • When to install: fit during the roof stage before tiles are laid, typically draped over rafters/trusses and under battens, with overlaps detailed to drain to the gutter.
