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.
Looks a good job there :thumbsup:

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.
