oldfarmtractor said: (quoted from post at 07:37:26 06/19/14) Two years ago, I put standing seam steel on my home in Northern Illinois. They started with a layer of the rubberized water and ice shield. That was over the entire roof. This is for sound deadening and the fact that the steel will move more than shingles.
Over that they placed the roof with the hidden fasteners. It is a single piece, from ridge to edge. It is a very quiet roof, no rain noise or hail noise.
I also bought the heat reflective material. Even though it is a bit dark in color, it remains cool, even in the hot sun.
As for black mold or whatever, if water can't get under there how can there be problems? After all shingles don't have ventilation under them.
It is called humidity and much of it comes from the warm humid air in the home.
Run a dehumidifier in a home and see how many gallons a day of water in collects.
Never seen a metal roof sweat on the inside and drip?
Of course not an issue in the SW dry climates.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
