I have found it difficult to locate a manufacturer (or should I say regional distributor) willing to sell me the materials to roof my garage/shop with a metal slate roof. Both Future Roof and Interlock distributors have told me that their product is not available for DIY. I've reviewed installation manuals and videos, and don't see why I couldn't do a good job with this type of product. I've built this building from the ground up, other than having the foundation done professionally - I would like to do the roof as well. I'm about to give up and go with standing seam, but it's not what I really want. This is also a small job (< 7 square), with a simple roof design. Both Interlock and Future Roof would have to send crews from the Seattle area to Richland, further increasing the cost. What's the deal? Will any of the companies on this site ship metal slate roofing to Richland Wa for DIY?

I'm not really sure about the other manufacturers, but you might try Edco Products.

There are also a couple of distributors that will see products direct nationally. Metal Roofing Express and Best Buy Metals.
