Steel roofing
The felt is going on the potting shed and I'm thinking of replacing it with
steel roofing. The stuff from http://www.bbtroofing.co.uk/ looks pretty good. Has anyone on this ng had any experience with them (or any other supplier)? Alan -- email =~ s/nospam/fudokai/ |

Steel roofing
ajp was thinking very hard :
The felt is going on the potting shed and I'm thinking of replacing it with steel roofing. The stuff from http://www.bbtroofing.co.uk/ looks pretty good. Has anyone on this ng had any experience with them (or any other supplier)? Alan I used steel box profile 18 months ago for a large garage extension. It looks a little better than the basic corrugated stuff. They suggest if it is cut, the plating will then migrate to cover the cut edge, so no rust. There is no visible rust where I cut it. Disadvantage is that condensation will collect on the underside unless insulated. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk |

A friend found this stuff very good for a large double garage roof. http://www.casupply.co.uk/acatalog/b...of_sheets.html They do steel sheet too, if you insist on it, but expect condensation problems..
