Garage roof placement - help
Discussion
Guys,
I need to replace the roof on my garage but don't have much information on what type of roof to replace it with. Can anyone provide the various options please any costs would greatly appreciated too. So for I all I know is I want a flat roof that's not corrugated etc.
The garage itself is about 16ftx16ft and has a asbestos roof.

Probably best to board and felt it. This will be a lot more expensive than a corrugated option.
Why don't you want corrugated?
Thanks I'm just not a fan of the way corrugated looks, also I am planning on boarding up and insulating the walls later on so am wondering if I should insulate the roof too? If so is board and rubber/felt the way to go?Why don't you want corrugated?
A friend of mine built a small "ramp" type fixture on top of his flat garage roof when redoing it so the water wont just sit there when it rains. Obviously he also put guttering across the front but it looks much smarter than usual. He used this special rubber spray paint stuff ontop of the felt to double waterproof if... Came in a massive spray can (like nearly 2ft tall!) and is some sort of a sealant, has worked really well so far.
Cheapest way to do that is to put a dekra tile sheet on it. Flat roofing it will be mega bucks.

Many thanks for the all the input does anyone by chance now how much the dekra solution may be compared to a flat roof? Garage is about 16ftx16ft approx btw.http://www.decra.co.uk/Products.aspx
Moving forward I want to board and insulate the garage too so don't really want the exposed roof structure as it currently has.
