Ours is a steel roof of some sort so i can't imagine getting it off easily. I'm hoping there is a manhole! I'll have to ask on monday to make sure. As much as this house loks nice, architects dont seem to design with practicality in mind! It looked pretty easy - we didn't build that home but completed renovated it including putting in new ducting. The builders got on the roof, unscrewed it and took it off - it looked pretty basic however, they took the ENTIRE roof off. [quote="Macy"] Did they have to make the gap bigger to allow for the ducting, or do anything special to adequately insulate the ducting? I would imagine something as extensive as ducting would in practical terms almost HAVE to be done at the time of building. [quote] There was a gap. I am not sure but I think the ducting was something different as well - didn't really take too much notice to be honest. And, no it wasn't done at building - as I said we replaced all the ducting when we renovated the property.
