Today the kid got out of school 2 hours early .Well he still got an education . No afternoon filled with video games , take your son to work day .  I picked up materials on Monday , a 5 hour round trip to Lancaster Pa to pick up metal roofing . Even though I am a contractor , I have never done one . So I read up on it , picked up misc supplies this morning . Put up 2 panels alone , then picked up the kid and finished 1 side . Total of about 4 hours . No tear off , right over the shingles .  Rather easy compared to shingles . I have 2 buildings to do at this property .  To give an idea of cost . Its 17 square between the 2 buildings and materials were $2000.   

The advantage is I dont have to do it all at once since i am not stripping the roof . i amk just doing it when i have extra time
