Howabusa Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 My son in law finished our new metal roof yesterday. Thanks to State Farm it only cost us $600, for a 50 year roof! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Looks good. We put a 40 year metal roof on about 8 years ago and it till looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 I've considered a metal roof but was always a bit worried that the temperature and humidity conditions in the Midwest would create moisture/condensation in the space between the roof and the sheeting, eventually creating mold and rot in the particle board. Any one aware of how they deal with this potential issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 @Howabusa better put some ice/snow bars on there, if not you gutters could get ripped off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
