Ed21 Posted March 19 Posted March 19 This may well be daft, but got a large sloping ply roof that needs a cover. I also have a couple of large rolls of black DPC. Any reason(s) why it would be stupid to use the DPC as a roof covering?
Mike Posted March 19 Posted March 19 OK as a temporary covering for a few weeks / months, if well nailed down to resist the wind. Chances are that it will disintegrate with UV light over a long period. 1

I did think about UV, but was unsure as to how long it would last Trying to save some dosh as won't be using it for more than a year tops. How about DPC base layer covered with a green felt topsheet? Would that be any good? Edited March 20 by Ed21
