Are those metal vents rustproof?

Great!! Really appreciate this

If its actually a 0/12, you need to add iso board to give it a slight pitch to direct the water.

Running the plywood horizontally and staggering seams makes for a more stable roof. It has absolutely nothing to do with the grain. The multiple layers of plywood are laid out in a cross grained manner, creating strength in any layout.

Didn’t know the horizontal vertical thing. Thanks for teaching me something !

Damn pancho built this on a Friday before the Chelas or Lunes after the Chelas.

Looks like the roofing is about 20 -25 years old not 10

Lol. I eyeball that shit everyday

No budget for a cricket?

You can use whatever, your tool to measure 5 5/8”. Why not use a tape measure tool

Can You speak more clearly?

Im contractor me and my twin bro r the owners and the installers as well we have 2 somtimes 4 guys and we r up there making sure we r doing it right dnt trust ne body not even ur guys

Not correct on your book spacing according to the application manual. And it's not a "book" it's "Starts and Finishes ".

Nothing wrong with staples. Roof is at least 30 years old. If the owners have the money now then replace it. Otherwise tell them to start saving.

The staples worked fine so far, so not a reason to replace. The moss could be carefully removed. Those shingles are not curling. So just the missing granules as the reason to replace?

That’s not a nail it’s a staple never use roofing staples.

The price difference for the tear down is insignificant compared to the price of the roof, i never roof over.

Those shinglesvlook short. How long are they?

Why don't you try reading the bundle it tells you how to cut your shingle sets, that's not the proper way according to the manufacturer

So how do you fix it?

Why can’t they just make it a more durable material instead of just these granules that fall off so easily? I hate it :(

When dimensional shingles first came out we did 5 5/8 once we got use to the shingles we just eyeballed a 6

what kinds of shingles do that? how long till they delaminate?

This was a complex job. Thanks for seeing it through!

7-8” works too. Don’t use a tape just eyeball it. You’ll get 5 pieces plus a full shingle. Simpler, no measuring, more room for error. No downside, faster, less trying. Gives more play around the pipes and when you get to the end. The 1/4 1/2 3/4 full is easier but is a bit lazy and doesn’t give the greatest spacing

Great work fellas! Keeping that lost art of metal alive !! Proud to be a metal man ⛏️

Excellent craftsmanship guys!! Subscribed 😎

I've been cutting my books at 6 inches for ever

would a double layer roof give a bit more protection when large hail stones hits the new outer layer, as the old layer under it can kind of allow for a more softened blow? Great video!!! Viewing from Arkansas....

I can roof. Lol! Good job. 🥸

Very good thank you, brother 🤔👍😎

I'm doing a layover myself. I've roofed about 25 years ago so learned how to do enough to be dangerous. I couldn't do a complete replacement. I can't afford it, nor afford to hire someone to do it for me. My main worse challenge is two roof jacks in close proximity for an AC unit. I removed the AC unit since it didn't work to get it out of the way but the electrical connection is just a little piece of pipe that is loose. The other is a gas line, it has two flashing covers that overlap, I reused those, since I couldn't find replacements available at Home Depot. I should have calked around the shingles laying them down. They are going to leak, I need to get after those and rework them. I know for 25 year asphalt shingles, being a layover makes them only good for about 10 years. I had to do something because the last major rain storm we had here in Fresno, Ca the shingles were getting blown off the roof. I know how to shingle around the roof jacks when they are stand alone but those two close together has been a real problem for me. I did replace one sheet of plywood. I think all the plywood needs to be replaced but that is a huge job for me at my age to do by myself. Luckily I don't expect anymore rain this year but it's hot. I've been peeling what shingles I expect to lay that day and getting off the roof by 10 or 11 am, because by then those shingles get to be a little to hot to handle and they stick together too much that it's hard to pull them apart without ripping. It's important I get the one side done because I'm getting solar panels installed on that side.

Good job 👍 that's the best way to do it 👍

Looks very good 💯

You can hire a great company but you are at the mercy of the subcontractors they use. My boss recommended a company she used which worked great for her: done in 2 days, no leaks. My installation was slowed by a death in their family leaving them short. Closer to 5 days and I'm waiting for a good rain to see if they rushed it being shorthanded.

Thank you

What brand of shears do you use?

Waste of time.

I use my utility knife or a book cutter that makes it so fast and easy and good investment for a crew to have. They can get the new guy that might not know measurements to cut the books easy with that tool. For the guy that do it often they use their utility knife since they are about 6 inches

Funny how every video that someone puts up to train their new employees without experience gets all the loser saying how it's the beginner method. Then throw out insults. How about this, watched this because I use other people's training videos most of the time. Now I have to say some insult about you losers that have years on a roof and have only risen to one notch above the newbie this video is for.

So we're gonna ignore that it was nowhere near 5 5/8.

Want it done right do it yourself. I am old and I did mine in 2 weeks and it is done right! If a nail went too deep I sauced it. If it was too high I set it. Every single one. Do it yourself and save thousands. I saved about 6k. Worth it.

Most of you committing here wouldn't make a pimple on a roofer ass...

I don't understand what you just did first shingle is what 5/58 the second one looks wider then 5/58 and the third on too i didn't get what you just did why can't you just do one on video so i can understand what you did to the three stairs

Is it safe to put in plastic vents in basements ?

I’m interested in applying as an roof inspector or roof technician for you guys

Blame the manufacturers. Take a look at the BP Mystique 42 instructions for offsets and nailing pattern. They are telling you to drive the second nail away from the edge only 2.5 inches from the edge of the overlying shingle edge (using their 10.5 inch offset recommendation). The staples in the above video are conformant to these instructions. For the three tab shingles the four nail case keeps the nails about 6 inches from shingle edges and the six nail case keeps this separation by bunching the nails around the tab cutouts. The same bunching approach must be applied to architectural shingles.

I've been cutting by eye from day one on arcs. This is way too slow, i could nail on a sq by the time you cut sets.On 3 tabs its a different story.
