    What's the Best Way to Reattach Tin Porch Roofs?
    Hi, All!

    If the edge or corner of a tin porch roof has become loose, what's the best way to reattach it, please? Nails might not do the job.

    One of my corners is sticking up about a half foot!

    Thanks!

    Recently I had the same problem with the tin roof of the shed I have at thr back.
    It was worrying me, because a strong wind would have cleaned it right off.
    I engaged a man to fix it.
    He said no great deal.
    He had the right equipment and
    He screwed screws right round.
    He had a tool which punchered the tin and an electric drill to screw the screws.
    He finished the job in less than an hour.
    Total cost AUD $100.
    I was very satisfied with the work.
