In this video I’m installing some metal roofing over an existing ash-fault shingled roof. This is not a complete install only basic install on a bungalow, I’m not showing how to install in valleys, dormers around chimneys or installing pipe flashing, trims, flashing, gable trims etc. Please check out other peoples videos here on YouTube for more information.
The steal I installed in this video are 3 foot wide panels, 29 gauge. Cost of installing metal depends on many factors, if you remove your old layers of shingles to install new ash-fault shingles you will have to pay for disposal of the old shingles, always factor that into your quot. For myself in the end metal is only a couple of hundred dollars more, also less labor to install and much faster to install.
I am not a roofer. This is just a DIY install on “my cottage roof”, always follow the code in your area and speak with a professional metal installer.

Rain being driven by wind, to go up into the gap. Where do you live Tahiti??
a question…. with the panels raised on 24 centers, how do you walk on it to keep from bending it??? would like to know… also on my home I have front and back porches which change the roof angle…. do you us a valley where they meet and keep going?????
Would caulking the closures on top and on the sides be a good idea??
Hey!! Thanks for posting this!! I have a simple garage that I need to cover. The condition is exactly the same as your video — with old shingles that are starting to curve up, etc. I was toying with taking the old shingles off and putting all new shingles, but that is such a hassle. This looks to be an easier, quicker process. And I think it looks great! Thank you for posting this!!!?
OMG! OMG! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!!!?
Basically, behave children.?
really enjoyed this! I'm thinking about installing metal on my shed and I found your info very helpful. Thanks for the video!?
because you have that 3/4" space under your metal roof on warm sunny days and cooler nights aren't you going to create condensate on the underside of your metal panels?
install over shingles fine. do not add strips it creates extra noise for one and metal condensates so you have to wrap strips with ice and water or theyll rot. best to tear off and ice and water whole roof deck and install metal directly over top. building science acadamy of new york?
I did similar for my chicken house(13×50 feet). But it needs exhaust fan. Otherwise it will be rain inside from moisture. Very good idea.?
