Screw the new panel in place as described. Also be sure the stanchion flashing fits beneath the roof shingles to prevent leaks. Make sure the panel is square to the eave of the roof so that all of panels installed afterwards are straight. Metal roofing is also available in the form of shingles.

To install corrugated roofing start by cutting your panels to length with an angle grinder. On the roof lay out the locations of the stanchions that will support the solar panels. Continue adding panels until the roof is covered. Next pre drill holes on the end and side ridges of the panels spacing the holes 6 to 8 inches apart.

Next put a screw into the fastening strip to keep it steady before installing the screws along the face. Along the fastening strip of the sl16 always use the pancake head fastener. If you feel the need for sealants lay a bead of 100 silicone or adhesive silicone before laying the sheet down and make sure the bead is towards the edge of the bottom sheet. Screw each stanchion through the roof and into a roof rafter.

Continue installing the metal panels making sure that the edges overlap at least 1 in 2 5 cm or as required with the adjacent panel. Do this until the entire roof is covered.
