Garage roof advice
I've a standalone garage at the side of my house. It was constructed
in 1965 of concrete slabs on a concrete base and has an asbestos cement roof and is about 5.5m x 3m. The garage leans slightly (a few degrees to the vertical away from the house) as a result of ground movement over the years, which has caused the roof to sag and to leak in heavy rain. Although the roof sheets themselves aren't damaged, the roof is basically shot and needs replacement. Two questions: 1. What relatively low cost options do I have for replacing the existing roof? 2. If I decided to replace the whole garage (it ain't pretty) what's the degree of difficulty of demolishing this type of garage and what options do I have these days for material/construction/price of a new one? (i.e. similar size and standalone) Many thanks, Andy |
