Vented fibre cement roof

[fergus]

I’ve just removed a fibre cement roof from a dairy cow shed, fitting a new composite roof for machinery storage / workshop.
Was first installed 2009 so it is definitely not asbestos.
Has anyone come across these sheets? They are 1m wide, rather than 1m cover, I guess they are designed for ventilation in livestock sheds.

wondering what to do with the roof, is it worth anything to anyone? Any ideas on where I should be looking to offer something like this?

Grateful for any help!

approx 80m x 15m, 1100m2, all palletised.

In could possibly resuse a lot of them, Is it even possible to use these as a normal sheet? I guess they would just have slightly less cover than a normal.

aren't they just ordinary sheets put on the wrong way up?

They are different sheets to normal ones, upturned sheets is how I know them as

They usually come with a 30 year warranty if made by the main manufacturers, so half way through their working life. I’m sure they will have a value but not much because if I’m paying labour to reroof a shed I want the 30 life expectancy if that makes sence.
We have used them successfully for side cladding on a grain store and it’s worked really well & should well outlast tin etc

Put them on Facebook and someone will bite your hand off

I'd be interested, what part of the country are you?

Yes, that is my issue too, I was thinking of
flipping them over, but like you say labour is expensive, so I have put a composite insulated roof on instead.

Good plan, will give it a go. Seems such a waste to skip them!
