However a tin roof will have to be replaced sooner than other sorts of metal roofs.
Re roofing a barn.
The original form of metal barn roofing is made from tin.
There are several different types of metal that can be used to replace a barn roof.
Hi i am contemplating re roofing my barn which has a 40 year old galvanized corrugated metal roof on it.
Unroll the felt a bit at a time working from left to right making sure the felt is flush with the edge of the roof.
The existing roof is laid directly on purlins on about 3 centers with no roof deck.
Re roofing barns if the outside of a barn has experienced severe structural damage it must be decided if only a portion needs to be replaced or if the entire structure should be completely redone.
The existing metal sheet is not in super bad shape but is definitely pretty rusty in some areas and is curling up in others.
