Well I've pretty much said it all really , not a huge amount to add but here goes. Standard pent roof metal shed to which I fixed 2x1 slating lath . I did this by screwing from underneath and used four laths . Actually while I did that I carried them over by about two feet on the one side to span the gap between the shed and a fence. Then on the sections of the metal roof I laid some foam insulation , the same foam that's used in sofas and finally screwed Coroline corrugated bitumen sheeting over the top running into a gutter. The shed is pushed away in a more obscure part of the garden ,the back is close to a standard panel fence , one side against a trellis fence and the other side is the one two feet from another trellis fence and i store a scaffold tower in that gap. The front is clear and it stands on a slabbed area. Other than that I've done nothing else to it and use it to store tins of paint , oils , plastic sheets and other assorted building paraphernalia and haven't suffered any condensation problems.shocker wrote:grenfell wrote: I did once buy a metal shed as a quick fix when we first moved in the house and I too found condensation was a problem but put a layer of insulation on top covered with corrugated bitumen sheeting and it's been bone dry for the last decade.
Grenf, could you possibly give us a bit more detail on that bit of magic? Getting a metal shed to a non-sweating state is truly impressive!
Maybe I've just been lucky or maybe I've hit on a solution I don't know.
