installed roofing backwards

Hi, I hired a guy to install a metal roof. I now think I made a big mistake and he must not have known what he was doing because it was installed backwards, i.e. the wrong end overlaps and it sticks up. How big of a problem is this and can it be fixed without removing the roof and putting a new one down? There is a flap just past the ridge that should be under the metal roof and is on top and sticks up a quarter inch in some places, could I just have them screw that down so it does not poke up?

Can you email a picture to me? At first I thought I understood the problem but then as I read your post, I wasn;t so sure. [email protected] Also, have you checked with the roofing manufacturer?

First thanks very much for looking. I will send some pictures in just a bit. I plan to call the manufacturer in the morning, I didn't think I could get anyone on Sunday :-) David		Guest User 10/2/2011	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/16671/find/
No problem. Thank you. If you want to let me know who the manufacturer is, I might be able to suggest who you should talk to.		Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 10/2/2011	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/16672/find/
Sure the manufacturer is union corrugated company. The product is Master Rib. I sent the email so let me know if you don't get it. Many thanks David		Guest User 10/2/2011	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/16673/find/
My last two post seem to have been blocked - the error said it thought they were spam so I don't know if this will make it either. The manufacture is Union Corrugating Company. Thanks David		Guest User 10/2/2011	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/16674/find/
Sorry about the posting problem. I have your email and will look at it soon. Union is a good company but I do not know anyone there currently other than Bill Fox who I believe still is their head of sales. Sorry I don't have a technical contact to give you.
