Repairing Holes In A Sheetmetal Roof
admin • February 28, 2016
I ran across this article by the U.S. General Services Administration. It includes a nice, step by step procedure on how to fix holes in a metal roof.
This procedure includes guidance on patching holes in a sheet metal roof by brazing and welting. Generally, this work should be accomplished by a experienced roofing contractor.
