montana Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Felt like I was standing on my head. House built in 1960. Old 2x4 rafters with what looks like black tar used to cement a silvery rolled roofing on the underside of the roof. But the black ooozy tar compound looks like it dripped UPWARD. I would almost think that the the rafters were originally used somewhere else lying down, and then flipped upside down and re-claimed as rafters. Any other ideas? I was stumped. Oh, don't worry about all the brown mold, that is a side issue to my question here.

Neal Lewis Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 That house is much older than 1960. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Recycled lumber. I see the tar turned around on one piece and is now dripping down. All is well with the world. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
