It depends on what was specifically written in the report in regards to the roof.
Yes, you can sue inspectors for negligence. No, their fine print limiting liability doesn’t actually do that, it’s just a deterrent.
Reports usually have photos of the underside of the roof from the attic as well as photos of the shingles. Post them.

Melamine works best, it’s non-porous and suitable for repeated usage providing you’re gentle. Theres also a special plywood made for formwork, can’t remember what it’s called but the face veneer is plastic.

They’re all exactly the same.

Plaster was used in the past to smooth rough walls made from cinder block, brick or stone or wooden slats. Workers would plaster every wall top to bottom to achieve a flat paintable surface fit for an interior dwelling. Drywall is the answer to that labor intensive task. its just a board of plaster.
Poor countries still plaster the entire walls because labor is cheaper than drywall. I hired newly imported mexicans once when I flipped and they were plastering EVERYTHING.
Wood panels look ugly and you’d have to plaster anyway to achieve a uniform flat surface fit for paint.

1/2” plywood is fine for sheathing, 3/4” is for subfloors. The 2x8 will cost about $55, 1/2” is probably closer to $30 per.
Plywood will be 10x faster to install and reduce drafts. The 2x8 will shrink and expand with RH changes which will cause gaps up to 1/4” between the boards. Prior to plywood, 1”x ~6” boards were most commonly use for sheathing, but they were T&G to mitigate gaps.

>>2686146
What’s the price for ply and what’s the price per 2x8?

>>2686101
