For example, polyethylene film is cheap, but it ages and has to be replaced every three months. Shop around for materials that work well. Ideally, go with fiberglass and panels of plastics for this because it’s almost shatterproof and it’s inexpensive. For you, it’s best to get a guy out there to build it for you, but tell them that the roof needs to be made of fiberglass.

You can do this easily, but make sure that you follow everything.
