So I have already pulled the plywood from the walls, and part of the ceiling. Only the front piece of plywood seems to be rotting. Everything before that seems solid.
Time is the one thing I have plenty of, so I don't mind putting the effort into repairing the thing. Just want to make sure I do it right.
With you having done multiple rebuilds, can you tell me, is it possible to glue down the existing sheet of rubber on the roof to a new piece of plywood?
As long as you have no tears and no leftover wood still glued to the roofing in theory, you should be able to reglue the roofing down. Just be aware anything still glued to the roofing will leave bumps in the roofing surface. Those bumps can be a potential leak down the road by poking through.
The roofing will need to be in decent shape and you will need to figure out exactly what material the roofing is for the correct adhesive to use.
Roofing could be vinyl, EPDM, TPO.. Not really a rubber like in a car tire, more of a plasticized material. Using the wrong adhesive can attack and damage your roofing.
