Felt Roof Shingles/Tiles

    Hi all,

    Hoping some of you might be able to point me in the right direction.

    About to put together a wooden playhouse for my daughter.
    I've treated the panels including roof with cuprinol.

    I wanted to do a little more on the roof to protect it though.
    I had thought to put some felt roof shingles/tiles on it to help the worst of the rain run off but I can't seem to find them anywhere. I had a look in all the bricks and mortar places locally and have found some english sites that supply them but they don't deliver to Ireland.

    Would anyone know where I could get some similar to the ones in the below link or suggest an alternative for helping to slightly weather proof the roof? I realise it probably wont last a very long time anyway but anything i can do to give it a bit of a fighting chance would be good.

    Any help would be hugely appreciated.

    Thank you

    I've seen shingles in B&Q in Liffey Valley.

    I have a bunch left over from a log cabin that would probably cover a child's playhouse. You can have them for free if you want. I'm based in Dublin 12.
