Hi All,
the saga is almost over. Now it's time to roof the 10 x 20 attached awning structure. I divided the 20 foot length into 2 foot x 10 foot sections. Here's the problem.
The structure isn't strong enough for me to crawl around on. I was going to use painted plywood. The issue is attaching it and eventually having to paint it. It doesn't seem practical.
I need a roof that's either maintenance free of attached somehow that it can be removed. Mind you the last roof was that j link metal roof. It blew off in a storm. I'm really stuck on what to do.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Any roof will disappear if the storm is strong enough. You could look at fiberglass panels, Steel, or Ondura panels. They are about maintenance free.
