Does it not balance out?

...Only one section of the run had a roof, so I went to Lowes and purchased some corrugated asphalt roofing sheets. I got a good deal since they were damaged. I cut them to the correct size with my skill saw and used special roofing screws to attach the pieces. Lowes also has a peak cap made of the same material, so the entire roof is now covers...

Ondura??? Everything I've read suggests that material is not nearly so durable as advertised, and must be periodically repainted to slow degradation. Good luck with that.

Otherwise, agree w/ all you've posted, and commend your ability for locating deals.

I don't recall the manufacturers name, however I did pre-treat all wood with Thompson's Water Seal. It's held up very well for two years, but will need a new stain job next summer.

Ondura was the roofing material I was talking about having the bad reputation for durability.
