I thought by now they would find a better substitute for zinc sheet roof, the salt air will rust that roof. With the abundant of so many types of wood in Guyana, why not make shingle roof, it will last equally as long as the rest of the structure and will keep the building cooler.

There is corrugated aluminum and galvanized steel that is used in modern building. It doesn't rust like the cheap zinc sheets that we used long ago. 

Well,why then you have to paint the zinc roof ever so often. It is to protect it from rusting.

These sheets do not have to be painted. They are manufactured to withstand rust. 

I predict this market will be left incompleted for years and years to come.
