How does this new roof differ from the 2019 roof? Will this new one have a lantern along the ridge like the pre-2019 roof?
In 2019 we stripped the lantern & roof sheets, built 9 new trusses & replaced 7, fitting new or reusing old purlins where possible. We realised we weren't going to complete the roof quickly, so stopped & refitted any old sheets to hand to get us over winter - then covid prevented a prompt restart in 2021. We've since done other work on MH shed such as replacing electrics, fitting windows & a new floor. Now we're stripping the old roof sheets again, fitted the last 2 trusses, new roof sheets, we'll replace the water tables at each end, rebuild the lantern, fabricate & fit smoke chutes.
