Title: inexpensive metal sideing for a woodshed
Post by: Dave Sparks on July 20, 2013, 05:50:45 PM
Has anyone a good link of inexpensive metal siding for a 6' x 8' woodshed.  I have been trying search Depot and Lowes but not finding anything on line. I was going to use fiber cement but metal might be better for me. Thanks!

One of the full timers up here uses a lot of the old fashioned corrugated roofing about a third or half way up on his out buildings.  Then board and bats on the upper part.

I used this galvanized roofing for the siding of my 20x30 shop. It worked fine. Had to cut to length. Probably could have ordered cut lengths If I'd bothered.

If you're patient, Craigslist will have some listed sooner or later.  That's where my woodshed roofing came from.

Thank-you everyone!  Not sure but I may go back and use fiber cement exterior...

Actually that would be my number one choice.  Other than board and bat that is like free up here for me.
