    Anyone know who makes this roof style.

    It is galvanized sheeting approx 130mm to centers. It has approx 7 ribs per sheet as far as i can tell. Sheets are ~ 800mm wide

    Ive been to lysaght. Stratco. Steeline & most demo yards in brisbane and none have this.

    House was built late 1980s.

    Maybe it isnt roofing but some sort of fencing or cladding....

    In Sydney we have a place called metroll. They make a profile on their own flat roll sheets. If they have one up your way they might be able to make that profile for you.

    Bite the bullet and replace the lot with spandek or similar, it looks like it is at the end of its life (1980 is almost 40 years or 280 in dog years).

    I'll lend you a screw gun with a hex bit.

    I'd suggest using a non-bitumen based membrane but laying some galv sheet in the pans (cut to fit the pans & silicone them down). Then paint over with liquid membrane. The cappings are also quite rusted and should be painted over as well to slow down further deterioration.

    No. Trimdeck has only 5 ribs i need 7 ribs - the pitches are closer together

    The closest i can get is roof deck. But its american product.

    roof deck type b - Google Search

    Form deck

    form deck galvanized - Google Search

    The previous owners were chinese so im assuming they used something they got maybe from commercial site roof or cladding

    Was also thinking it could be concrete form when they pour concrete between levels they use this type

    If i can get the name of it i should be able to get some

    Could have been a long closed up roof sheet manufacturer. Sorry, got no idea other than trimdeck.
