    I have a round roof shed and lean to which was built in 1977 which needs the tin replaced. There does not seem to be any suppliers locally.
    Anyone know who can supply the tin?

    Take off an old sheet as a pattern and take it to whoever you decide to get. Also measure the individual length of the 3 sheets. The top sheet can be a different length to the 2 lower sheets. Neighbour got sheets rolled by a company and the curve was way too severe. Luckily he was told a shed builder had an old rolling machine. He was able to recurve the sheets but it was a dose. Something like 60 sheets each 10 ft long. There was a batch of cocktails sheets to be done as well. Sometimes it might be worth altering the lean to timbers to do away with the cocktails sheets. They use a flashing to close the joints between the 2 roofs.
