I had a question about whether I should choose a metallic DELETED LINK or a wooden one, and now I lean towards the metallic one. It’s safer in terms of preventing mold from getting inside.

Also, if I were you, I'd replace the wooden roof with something more modern and water-resistant. The wood will bend under the pressure of numerous rains and further humidity, even though there's no attic in your house.

Certainteed Architectual's. 50 year and love them. Guys did a great job. Ice dam 9 feet up and around the ridge vent and all openings. Same brand for siding. Never have to replace in my lifetime again. 6" gutters with 4" downspouts makes a difference too. |
