Another boring install thread, chucking a unit on a roof

[paul_h]

Apologies to all, yet another basic install thread from me.
Yeah I know, I can fix them, but I have no experience in difficult installs so cut me some slack. :D
I wouldn't normally bother with this type of work, but I've started my own business in the beginning of the year, and every 2nd call is an install or relocating job, and I need the work :D

Some old dear wants to move a fuji aot24rnel to the roof, it's a corrugated tin roof, bull nose style old house.
I'm a little reluctant since it's a pain of a job to do, also I'm worried about noise and vibration. I've worked on a lot of a/cs on tiles roofs and it's pretty simple, but I don't want to move this unit just to get complaints from her latter on.
I've looked at roof mounting brackets from actrol, polyaire and reece which all seem different (maybe?).
Anyone got a good solution for a vibration free bracket/mounting system for a tin roof, what are the prices for such a bracket?
Thanks!

Tin roof associates me on this movie (http://tinyurl.com/3a6t5u).
The main actor (Paul Newman) is died few days ago, and I cant resist to give respect to him and this movie picture. I always lowed his work and movies. My respect for such a great actor!
Please administrators, move this replay to appropriate place

Do not apologies for the "Bread and Butter" work.
The everyday work is the bulk of what most of us do!
Still interesting this one all the same!

Basically I assume you are worried about vibration / sound resonance through the drum skin (sorry roof).
I have no knowledge of this type of install sorry!
But I do have the same reservations that your post suggests you have?

Basically I would as they say cover your arse on this one.
A well informed customer aware of the potential noise problems.
Is less likely to blame you if it's noisy if you have explained the problem.
After all It's as much your reputation that you are build as your client base.
ECT. ETC.
Hopefully someone here will be able to advise?
I assume there are no other likewise installs in the area that you can assess.
Sorry I can't be more helpfull.
