    I have a 25' x 33' garage flat (Slight slope)roof that i need to complete. What would the cheapest type of roof I could put on to this roof? (Was thinking galvanise) I have a fair idea on how to do the work myself, but just wondering is there anywhere online I can see plans for this type of roof. I basically want to build it the cheapest way possible.

    depending on the slope galvanised shets would probably be cheapest. If the slope is too gentle then you may need to strenghten up your structure to take into account snow loading etc.

    If you know any local sheeting agents, call in and see them as they usually have some in their yards that were ordered wrongly. There is a painted single skin box profile sheet available as well that's around the same price as the galvanised sheets but just looks a lot better. (Depending on the colour)

    Pay heed to Slig's advice re the strengthening of the structure as well.
