[51] METAL ROOF CHALETAT HEMLOCK VALLEY B.C. |
|
|
|
|
THIS BUILDING IS THE LAST ONE AT THE TOP OF EDELWEISS DRIVE. IT DIDN'T LOOK BAD FROM A DISTANCE. I PUT MY LADDER UP, TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK
|
|
|
|
IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE FASTENERS WERE LIFTING ALLOWING WATER TO GET IN.
|
|
|
|
I LOOSENED A PANEL AND DISCOVERED NO UNDERLAY, WHICH MADE IT IMPERATIVE TO GET ON WITH THIS ROOF BEFORE THE SNOW FLIES.
|
|
|
|
I MADE A MATERIAL LIST WITH ALL THE MEASUREMENTS FOR THE PANELS AND FLASHING DETAILS, SO THAT WE COULD SHIP IT TO THE JOBSITE, IN ONE COMPLETE PACKAGE, USING SELECT CRANE SERVICE.
|
|
|
|
NOW THIS ROOF LOOKS LIKE A MILLION BUCKS, AND IT'S WATERTIGHT.
|
|
|
|
THE COLOUR CHOSEN WAS DARK RED.
|
|
|
|
SLOWLY THE OLDER ROOFS ARE BEING REPLACED WITH SNAPLOCK ROOFING PANELS.
|
|
|
|
A NEW CHALET DOWN THE ROAD WITH A HEAVY GAUGE STEEL PANEL IN PLAIN GALVALUME FINISH
|
|
|
|
ANOTHER NEIGHBOUR WITH THE SAME HEAVY GAUGE STEEL PANELS IN CHARCOAL.
|
|
|
|
ON THE SAME STREET I NOTICED THAT THESE LIGHT WEIGHT ALUMINUM SHINGLES, DON'T PERFORM UNDER HIGH WIND CONDITIONS UP IN THE SKI HILLS. THE MANUFACTURER CLAIMS OTHERWISE , BUT THEY'RE FULL OF CRAP.
