mine dont leak anymore! cover'd it over with a sheet of firestone rubber, i thought this was a better idea than getting rid of all the asbestos sheets underneath.
we had some good rain the past 2 days and its dry as a bone!! :D http://upload3.postimage.org/140919/roof.jpg (http://upload3.postimage.org/140919/photo_hosting.html)

the 19ft x 12ft piece i used cost £90 so 39p per square foot. the rubber is 1mil thick and weighs alot it should do the trick.

local garden centre, the reason i did it is a friend of mine has had some on his shed roof now for 15years and its still doing the trick.

time will tell :wink: its also stuck down with waterproof pond tape to stop any draughts lifting it, and edge'd all the way round with roof lath timber.

animals (cats,birds) cant damage it! its difficult to push a knife through it! its a very good material. :D

jim@55 i think you can get it as big as you need, because its proper rubber the seams are vulcanised they make man made lakes with this stuff.
ring round a few garden centres and get quotes ignore normal pond liner you want RUBBER.
