Some nice looking installs there, Gav and DP.

DP, I noticed the netting underneath the trapezoidal roof on those pictures. I've never thought that would be necessary unless there were any sky lights.

I agree, nice installs chaps,
Netting is always required on a fibre cement roof, if you have ever fallen through one you would understand why...

It looked like a metal trapezoidal roof from the picture. Maybe I was wrong.

Hi SolarCity , Earthstore was mostly correct apart from it was what we prefer to call a "Pre" fibre cement roof !:ihih:

It was hard enough to load them up let alone tag the photos so they are in a bit of a random order i am afraid , but if you look at the barn with all the intricate scaffolding at the side and front of it , i did not take a photo of the internal netting work which was over the Drier And holding bins but it was literally a work of art !

From memory the netting and scaffolding for that 10 kw system came to over £2.500 +vat alone , it was one of the last we installed before the deadline and we even sent one of our lads (free of charge) up to Gritish bas at I think it was Manchester to hand deliver the fits application because the client did not trust the automated system .

When we had sky lights we just 3/4 in ply lined them , with or without a net it F!"£$^g hurts when you go through no matter what !

Not always. You can use crawling boards

Also if it was pre 1995 would of had asbestos in it unless you had it sent to the lab for testing

Interested in how you managed to collect the dust from drilling roof. Was the the old shaving foam technic

Or just one of those 15 litre garden sprayers with water in it .
