Hi to all,

Today I'll start a week of roof & attic questions, and as usual for a Sunday an easy one.

Material thickness and irregular size should be the first clue.


That has to be one pretty slick surface with the moss build-up. Bet the gutters were loaded too.

A compostion re-roof would probably save the owners 12-20% in insurance premiums a year also.

and as Paul stated the give away dispite the condition of this roof is the irregularity of the thickness of the material.


You guys are getting to good at this I thought I would be able to trick more of you into hitting the Cedar shingle answer ![icon_wink.gif](upload://ssT9V5t45yjlgXqiFRXL04eXtqw.gif)
