My workshop needs reroofing and I wanted to remove the felt covered tongue & grove and replace it with corrugated plastic covered steel sheeting.
I bought 14 x 5metre lengths of used red pantile sheeting, 4 x 3metre lengths of apex and 6 X 3 metre lengths of 90° gable along with various angled cut bits of each for the princely sum of £150.00 but from 25 miles away from. It was already down on the deck and loaded on a pallet for me when I arrived and he even threw in an IBC for an extra tenner!.
They were cheap because a farmer/haulier had extended his storage barn and instead of using red Norfolk pan tiles he used these sheets........ and the inspector caught him and he had to take it all off and do a proper job with clay pantiles!
These pantile sheets are 5000mm X 1100mm and I need to cut them down to 2450.
Taking into account the peaks and valleys across the sheets what is going to be the best way for me to cut them without doing too much damage to the plastic coating?
