    I need to re-roof a large shed out back and am looking for roofing material. It is ca. 40m2 but could do it with different materials as look is not so important (It is well hidden away:bigsmile:)

    I am just north of Inverness. Is hs anyone got anything going spare?

    Good Idea ST, especially as it is north facing and never sees direct sunlight. Mind you, will have to strengthen the trusses:bigsmile:

    Speak with Planwell in Buckie - friend just ordered metal sheeting for his garage, asked for one colour but was persuaded to take another colour (slate blue?) as it was on special at literally half the price (and they aren't that bad expense wise anyway), not sure how much of it they have left but got to be worth a call.

    Isn't Onduline the tried and tested?

    Yes, but it's much wimpier than crinkly tin.
