    How to install vinyl roofing?
    I want to install vinyl roof on my terrace under which I will do exercise. I can do it in open terrace but it is quite irritating in summer season. I don't know how to make it happen because, I have no facility to drill down any thing on terrace. Can any one suggest me. I am going to buy 4 iron rods, 1 square vinyl sheet and other tools... Right now, I don't have photo but, if you recommend so I can attached over here.

    Need to know size of roof u are putting on and what u will use for rafters. Also size and purpose of steel rods.

    U can rent a hammer drill to drill into terrace to secure support posts.

    Get a bid from at least 3 contractors. Make sure all bids are similar. How they will secure to patio. If footing is needed under posts. How tying into to house or existing roof and how it will be set so water does not come in at top of plastic roof. Also important is the pitch of plastic roof for water run off.

    Good luck and let us know the outcome.
