PVC Tilt cover - temp roof repair

[No skills]

Well then folks, hope all is fine with you.

As I have mentioned on the forum a while ago my garage roof is knackered and leaking all over the contents, plan was to strip off the knackered felt covering - repair/replace the osb sheets where needed and install a bitumen corrugated sheet roof. Very cheap and easy to do. However finances have taken a swan dive of late so this all got shelved and any hope of somewhere to woodwork died (again).

Hope prevails again.. a bit of bartering and some salvaging lands me with some old plywood, bitumen paint and a couple of bits of heavy duty pvc tilt (unfortunatly in blue ). So new plan, felt off - replaced knackered bits of osb (not enough ply to do it all) - seal board joints and paint roof with bitumen. This will hopefully give me a sound base to put the pvc tilt on, trouble is it will be in two bits. Now being pvc I'm hopeing theres some sort of glue/adhesive that I can use in the overlap of the tilt to give a reasonable joint? Does anybody know of a product that might work on this application???

Cheers

Clear bostick will bond PVC, used it to repair short term PVC pond liner with good effect.

Having had the pain of a felt roof. I recently opted for an EPDM roof. Very easy to put down and very competitive pricing when compared to other materials.

Prior to this my newly built shed was covered over with a Damp Proof membrane (heavy black plastic) for the princely sum of £6.20 (toolstation) it kept my plywood deck dry for 12 months.

I simply stapled it down at the edges and made sure it was nice and tight.

Literally just done the EPDM roof the other week due to lack of funds and time over the last year. Glad I waited

Hadnt thought of the DPM #-o still nevermind, going to give the pvc a go - its pretty thick so I think it will last well enough as long as I can bond it at the overlap. Will look at the Bostik, and maybe try some thick solvent pipe cement on a scrap piece.

Thanks Chaps!
