Tiled roof extends too far: possible solutions?

Hello everyone,
there is a small problem with my garden house. I ordered it with a 30cm roof overhang, and the company calculated the bearing for the tiled roof. Unfortunately, the bearing is somewhat larger than 30cm, so the tiles currently overhang significantly. I see two problems coming up:
1. in winter, the roof tiles might be levered off due to insufficient support area under snow load
2. I can't manage with the gutter

As you can see from the verge boards, I can’t push the tiles closer together anymore; they are already at a minimal distance. My idea now was to screw a batten onto the eaves wedge so that the tiles are better supported. That should be enough for problem 1, and 6cm would then roughly line up flush with the gable boards.
I’m still a bit unsure about the gutter problem. You’d probably have to add at least one more layer there. For the gutter, I got those Marley things from Obi where you screw the gutter brackets to an eaves board, so not much reach. Does anyone have any good ideas?

Doubling the fascia board for gutter hooks would also be my pragmatic approach. I would have no concerns regarding leverage forces.

Screw the last row

and what is the maximum spacing, if each row adds 3cm then that's enough and you can omit one row of tiles.

I had already thought about that too. With the maximum width I would probably almost make it, but the problem then is the roof pitch. The tiles are Nelskamp Sigma, the requirement for overlap would then be a roof pitch of >30 degrees, but the garden shed, of course, only has 18 degrees. Basically, with the roof pitch you only have about 6mm of play if you stick to the specifications. Of course, I don’t want the roof to become leaky now.

The verge boards and the half-width tile each are screwed in. The area tiles would have to be drilled first, they don’t have a hole.

exactly that was the topic at our breakfast table over the weekend ;-). My garden shed or bicycle shelter even has only a single-digit roof pitch. Allegedly, almost all tiles have a hole, but often not completely punched through. I would take another close look. Because I was even advised to screw every! tile (after all, it's only about 7m²)

You are also clearly below the permissible slope. As suggested above, I would calculate how it is with the maximum spacing and then screw every tile. I also wouldn’t worry about the load on that small area, or is there 50cm of wet heavy snow lying on it in winter? And you had a continuous roofing underlay on it too (as the 2nd water-conducting layer), right?

As always, I am amazed at how elaborately your garden shed is built in every detail!

Only the shaped bricks were stamped, but in fact most of them were not completely through...

Here is the excerpt from the datasheet

You can basically lay them at 18 degrees as well. But with the appropriate overlap of the bricks.


I actually just followed the material list I received. Although I had thought it would be easier before ;)
