    We recently built this 12x16 Jamaica Cottage Shop Gable shed with an 8ft Lean to, it was so solid and really felt like a quality build. I am super jealous that its not on my property. If you are in the market for a shed or outbuilding make sure you check them out. The metal roof went on pretty darn nice, as long as you are pre punching your holes and taking the time to have precise measurements you will get that professional look!

    Hi GM house looks great
    Can I know please what kind of metal is used for roof? Is it any specific metal? and what is the thickness of the metal?

    @chocolatemonk 5 місяців тому +3

    I would have thought you would have a rubber or foam type gasket for roof crown. I am afraid of moisture and the direct air flow will lead to rot

      How would this rot? This is an unheated, uninsulated building? This still has airflow with the cap.

    Serious question. Do you not need flashing or roof edge? Do you have any water issues? I’m thinking of doing it the same way you did just curious

    • @BreakFreeHomestead
      @BreakFreeHomestead  5 місяців тому

      No it wont drip back, and theres a decent overhang so you don't have to worry. I believe they have an optional drip kit for a more finished look on most of their kits.

    Is that the screw pattern that they specified? I’ve never seen a metal roof screwed off that way.

    Cut-off wheel was a mistake I made too. Jagged mess with a rust prone edge. Much better to take the panel off and use snips.

    • @BreakFreeHomestead
      @BreakFreeHomestead  2 місяці тому

      Yea, i think it could rust whatever way you cut it without refinishing. A nibbler might be the way to go.

      @@BreakFreeHomestead Tried a basic nibbler too. Wanders easily and leaves tiny shards of metal everywhere. Honestly, a good set of off-set snips are worth the money. Snips pinch the paint layers closed leaving the edge more resistant to rusting. Cut-off wheel burns the paint and exposes the edge to rust.

      It looks amazing. Boing that you are not using ply wood or Osborn underneath the metal panels, will it get hot in the summer?

      It's what it called for, probably because its from a change of slope. Although this one is barely noticeable.
