Optional Metal Roof Installation
Note: Optional Gray metal roofing can be purchased for
rooms up to 5x7 at time of room order. You may elect to
purchase your own metal or other smooth continuous
exterior roofing material. Instructions will vary
dependent on your choice.
39. Cut metal drip edge to the length of the roof and install
under roofing felt to the back side of roof so the side
with three grooves is on top of roof. Secure to roof with
roofing nails or staples.
40. Lay out the metal roofing sheets on a flat surface to
determine the amount of overlap needed to match the
width of the roof. This will provide the starting point for
roof placement.
Note: Determines the distance from the edge to the
start of the metal roofing sheets
41. Begin to install the metal roofing based of your
predetermined lay out of metal roofing sheets.
Center the metal roofing over the room. The left
overhang should be equal to the right overhang.
Check three points on each side to ensure the
distances are equal.
42. Secure the high side with roofing screws.
Note: Do not fully secure roofing you will need to
be able to lift the low side to install foam.
43. Insert foam between metal roofing and drip edge
to prevent insects from getting under roofing.
44. Secure metal roofing with one row of screws at the back of roof at
every other rib and another row of screws across the middle of
roof at every other rib.
Note: Predrilling the metal with a 1/8" drill bit is suggested for ease
in installation.
