This is just a friendly reminder UA-cam has almost everything
☑️
Screw tube is a censoring shit comunist platform ..
Is there anything it doesn’t have? For real though.
@@SkateNateTheGreatcrazy that I want to get into the roofing business but I don’t know anything and this video literally helped without having to go to school or wor for years of knowledge
Are you a roofer in Tennessee? If You are, maybe you have some pointers?
Actual career roofer 6 years.
just a few things, great video thought it was very informative and great for DIYers definitely if you’re brave enough to do you’re own dang roof, but couple of minor things I noticed. Wouldn’t call them errors just this is my career 4 tab asphalt shingles and I’ve spent many a year on the roof.
first few minutes right away the drip edge (metal flashing he installed) should be an 1/8th to 1/4 inch out from the plywood on the bottom to allow the water to have more distance when going down the roof maybe to feed into a gutter or at least away from your ply wood as sometimes the ice and water won’t seal perfectly and you have that room for error.
After that the ice and water, installation was good. I do recommend depending on the slope securing the underlay alittle more with more staples or ideally nails from your gun if you intend to stand on it when you cut your ice and water back you lost me, you did overlap your paper but that seems to be about a 4 inch overlap which if you’re not using the adhesive on the top of the ice and water paper which is alittle faster to stick does make me nervous. I’d leave the ice and water paper at least a couple feet in width and then do my paper over that not worrying about the minimal size difference as the shingles will cover that so it’s unnoticeable assuming your underlay isn’t full of bubbles.
Paper was good, again you’re making me nervous standing on it with so few staples but it’s on the side of a house and only a few feet up so 🧘🏻 I’m calm.
Appreciate that you went over the ridge with your paper, seriously so good🤣
Did you just say you fired a guy for smacking his hand with the staple tacker??? I’ve got over half a decade of just straight roofing nothing else and I do that at least once every few weeks. Apprentices will do that a few times a day🤣 hard core man.
The side flashing is interesting but I would have used the same piece as the drip edge and wrapped the corners at a 45 because if you don’t caulk that at the end of the video your plywood’s gonna get hit
What are you doing with that starter??? Are you going to cut a little 2 inch strip of starter for the sides?? Why make it more difficult on yourself there?
Good video. Works well for your first roof ever
Love it No fluff or over talk...EXCELLENT!!!
Thank you for information, would like to find someone like you in my area. Time to have my roof redone. Keep up the great content!!
Very good explanation. Thanks for sharing. I got to get back to laboring and recording!
Thank you finally a video step by step how to prep a roof
Super helpful man, no b.s., to the point. Was a huge help this past week. Thanks so much 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks
Yeah Man ... plain and simple. I love the tools you use. The hammer is dope. You speak clearly and that's really appreciated. Thanks
If you like this one check out part 3 of my most recent roofing series. That video was much better than this and has actual shingling
I can feel this guy feeling the camera watching him. And I can relate.
This is a great video!
Muy bien explicado, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos
@VeteranConstruction Soo glad your video showed up! I'm always having poultry "dumped" on my place and carpentry is NOT one of my stronger skills. Funny I've been trying to build some coops to house all the animals and still haven't managed..Currently some simple in trailers I bought with boards on top..and YOU build a structure to shoot an educational video! Anyhooo...I subscribed! Hoping it's as easy as you make it look!
Thanks from a Nebraska Farm girl!
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO... VERY INFORMATIVE. TWO THUMBS UP 👍🏼👍🏼
appreciate that thanks
Another great video!👍
thanks bud
Perfect👍
Awesome video man! Something I've learned for dripedge is to slightly bend the end of your metal inward with your hand for the overlaps and it helps to keep it from flaring out, works for eves and rakes (florida mans alternative to making the 45 cut, cause code calls for a 3'' overlap on all dripedge). Code here calls for everything opposite of what your doing too lol
It's easier if you just snip the metal a little, opposite from what he does in this video, then you can slip the underside, where the L shape is, and tuck it underneath the side you're laying it overtop. Makes it 100% flush.
Josh If I got what your saying right then that would work just fine too. Where i’m from they require 3” over lap on all eve or rake metals so bending the ends is the only option
@@joshuawhite402 late post but I do sheet metal so we’re all about the overlaps. Best way to do it is to snip the drip edge slightly at the 3-4 inch mark then cut from the end of the metal at an angle to that mark. That angle cut will allow it to slide into the next pieces drip edge and look super sexy.
You are so professional you explain everything clearer!!!😉⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯⭐⭐⭐👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
i tried this time lol
@@NWIVeteranConstruction excellent you are amazing!!!😉💯⭐💯⭐👏👏👏👏
Thanks for the video!
Looks good!
Great line. “just the way she likes her men…no less than 10!!!!!”
Thank you so damn much for showing proper gutter apron/drip edge/ rake edge installtion! Literally every single roofing company in my area 45s regular drip around to the eave and all on top of felt. I've seen hundreds of roofs this year and 1 had proper drip edge installation.
No problem man
Instablaster
Because that’s how you do it, so that’s why every company is doing like that
The most professional way and best imo is bending the corner as 1 piece wrapping from eave to rake. It’s a tricky cut but looks great and doesn’t leave a seam on the corners.
@@bigthunder7002I agree this looks most profesional and nice from the ground the problem primarily occurs when you install gutters on that roof. You want the gutter to go out past the edge of the shingle on the rake because there's more surface area for water to cling to so it has a stream that comes off the corner of the shingle at the rake/eave. So with the wrapped corner you have to hang gutter below drip edge, notch the back of the gutter to accept the drip, or cut the drip to accept the gutter. You could also just have the gutter stop at the drip. But I can tell you from experience that little stream that comes off the corner will dig a hole in the landscaping.
Thanks man this was real helpful I've been watching soft but they leave out most of the good detail section need to start the roof
10”! Immediate thumbs up for including the joke!
First! Woohoo!!!
I just started a position as an Exec Asst to the President of a roofing company with no prior experience. I type proposals for him all the time. This is helpful.
This helps but manufacturers have slightly different specs on how to install depending on the product so always keep that in mind!
Great video. Right to it the right way
If you like this one you'll find that my most recent 3 part series even better! Check it out. Part 3 specifically is doing very well
I figured out my self this neat trick on making drip edge look nice and continous. Seeing drip edge like at 9:24 just pisses me off. First squish the end that goes over a bit (all roofers know this) 2nd bend the corner with the kick out a little extra with your index and thumb kinda like you wanna make a triangle bend mark. More than half the time the overlaps come out beautiful you can't even see them
Cool video, when I do my starter I start my gable one first and get my overhang on the side gable plus bring it down on the each so it has the over hang on the side and the eave, then I but my first eave starter too that gable starter, might sound confusing but it looks good too.
i think ik what you're talking about. the actual starter and shingle part will be out thursday
Check out the flow, love the hair dude hah!
gatta cover up that bald spot lmao
I professionally build training materials for corporations to use for educating/training employees on processes and this video is VERY well done. 👏👏👏 Keep up the great work on uploading educational videos.
Haha thanks I'm trying to get better as I go. Still Struggling with the professional part
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I do the same and always try to get better as I go. Training/educating people on a process is not an easy task. I am trying to learn about roofing because my daughter is having a new one put on and this video helped IMMENSELY. If your audience "walks away" more knowledgeable then you are definitely a professional.👑
Would of left out the sexual inuendo...just sayin...not everyone likes the locker room lingo. Other than that was good vid..IMO
Thanks for showing the steps.... wish i saw this before i started the roof.. but its done.. but do I enjoy watching,, looking forward to part 2.... I should have sent you my roof sketch for questions.... i see my mistakes Thanks again... no one is ever to old to learn....
Very true. Hey I break a lot of these rules too so no sweat lol
This is very helpful I start on Monday I’ve never roofed before
If you like this then you'll love my most recent 3 part series! It's Way better
The 10 inch joke made me check out the comments!😂
My gpa would always make me roof w him he was so harsh w me i had to learn to roof thats what i thought as a kid now being an adult im grateful for his teachings to survive and i could actually say im not useless in this world
Good
Thanks for the video
No problem!
Shout out to the spider at 8 minutes in the video, dope information very helpful
Ima check him out. hate them
Great video, straight to the point! Can't seem to find part two though. It's always nice if you add a link in the description to the next video.
Here is part 2 ua-cam.com/video/9CfGinYTRpU/v-deo.html
wow thanks
Nice pouch!
I definitely need this video I have to redo the roof that my ex-wife’s husband put on top about the shittiest job ever he didn’t even stagger the The shingles instead he made a nice straight line all the way down the roof.
THank you for your service man
Np Thanks
With the new synthetic felt you can staple just the top and bottom. Keep the staples out of the feild and no more leaks, YES it will hold you. Try it and thank me later.
yea people don't trust the staples enough
It voids the warranty. Says it right on roll " do not use staples"
@@user-ws3rw9ur4y I never knew that, I believe you. I imagine they want you using the green cap nails..yeah hardly anyone does.
@@stevejones8486 ya man check out the installation pdf, it's on the first page page lower left after "Important" that's in bold letters. You need to use caps
www.google.com/search?q=gaf+feltbuster+installation+instructions&ei=UaXvYJLyHo2utQbL3pmIAQ&oq=gaf+feltbuster+insta&gs_lcp=ChNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJwEAEYATICCAAyAggAMgYIABAWEB4yBQgAEIYDOgQIABBHOgQIABANOgUIABCRAjoFCCEQoAFQ-x9Yui5gnDZoAHABeACAAb4BiAH7B5IBAzAuOJgBAKABAcgBCMABAQ&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp
We use cap nails, it’s safer for the roofing crew
I've been interested in becoming a roofer, this is very insightful !
You should check out my part 3 of roofing basics of you liked this one. It's more hands on. One of My most recent videos
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I definitely will, thank you !
I learned more on this video than working for almost 8 months with guy really don’t wanna teach me
Now that I started practicing what I saw here they say: I taught you the good way to do it
8:45
Greatest part of the entire video! 🤣
Probably hurt a lot of little fellers feelings on here 🤣
No less than 10 babyyy
Thank you thank you
I like the old school tin snips.
When are you getting to rafters and hip roofs along with the slats for cedar shake.with a chimney in the middle of a flot top on a hip
Had a roof repair for my grandparents. Kept saying this is how zach would do it
Lmao that's crazy to think about. Thanks for sharing that
I understand that how slick it gets
Zach, please make a video showing how to apply underlayment to an angled hip roof. Does ice shield go over the hip? Do i cut the underlayment as it comes over the ridge to lay flat on the hip? Ive got a roof line like a typical gable, but the rake side has a tapered third side. Similar to a pryamid.
Nice work, could you write down step by step what you do and also nail size and staple size please.
FIRST!
You should use your knuckle on your finger it’s a whole lot faster than chalk line for your starter and usually I put my first starter piece on the edge metal side then I put my starter where the drip is at that way u can put a full shingle or start your books immediately if u want a demonstration let me know. And I promise I always come out straight
👍👍👍
On the ice and water the sticky side goes down the bottom to stick your starter strip down on the Outer Edge by the gutter great video though
Wow! weight loss looks good!
lol i hope so. been workin my ass off
I cover the ice and water with paper so it’s easier for next guy and easier to walk. Tearing off shingles from some ice and water is impossible. They become one.
Was wondering about that. I have seen a lot of videos. I did my first roof with my dad in 1995. They didn't really have a lot of the underlayment they have now. I see a lot of videos where it seems to me they are either skipping steps or the process has evolved around speed and not around function or considering the next team that will replace the roof in 15 years +/-.
The metal needed overlap. Alltime
Starting my roofing job tomorrow...
I watch all your videos and just want to thank you for all your knowledge. But I just watched another video that instructed to put the ice and water under the drip so you get coverage on the front 2in of plywood ya or na?
I learn
try Epilay underlayment Zack! it rolls out nice, cuts nice, you can walk it, it is pricey! but we LOVE it!...lots of grip in wet weather!...recently our supplier went with this "star wrap" brand....it just SUCKS! the salesman said "the guys LOVE it!" it is TERRIBLE!...lol...Epilay is good shit! along with the IKO system will NOT fail!
@5:50... You can set and trace "ANY" metal with the oils on your finger tip.
complete noob here. i have a question. initially you covered the whole roof with the ice barrier but then around the 3:40 mark the ice barrier is only for about a foot from the bottom and then you covered the whole roof with the synthetic felt on top of that. what am i missing?
Watch my video on the tear off, dry in , and put back. It will explain all. It's got around 700k views if I remember right. It's an hour and 8 minutes so you can skim through and see whatever you want
@@NWIVeteranConstruction thank you. that helps. will check the video.
Great videos. Question: I’m getting ready to reroof my house. I have 4 valleys total.
Do I start in bottom corner and work into the valley or shingle valley first and work outward?
I’m planning on using 2 cut 5 row method that I’ve see you use. I’m planning on using closed valley method.
Watch my valley video. You can do whatever way makes sense. A lot of ppl think you have to start from the valley, that's not true. I wouldn't run a big side left handed just because It's easier to do a valley from the valley. Sometimes it makes more sense to shingle a big side side up to a valley and then cut pieces into it. Once in a while.
Also, if you haven't ever roofed before, and your house has 4 valleys...I can almost gurantee you'll mess something up lol just want to throw that out there. Listen to the beginning of my most recent roofing series and it will tell you why. (In part 3)
My first day of roofing I woke up an hour early and here I am 😅
Haha go to my "tear off/ dry in/ put back" video. It has a lot of views and You should get a bit out of that.
when installing starter stip along the rake are suppose to overlap or butt up
I strip my drip edge in with ice and water on the bottem and the top, I live in a area where the snow and ice cause problems on the bottom edge
In Colorado we are required to use cap nails or cap staples in our underlayment it also voids the warranty on most synth felt
that drip edge metal is for foam roofing !
Love your stuff man. I am also a Veteran and would like to figure out a way we can collaborate somehow. Obviously, you have a much larger channel than us and have done really well, but I would like to figure something out if you're down.
great video! Do you have to install a drip edge on a split level home where the roof edge runs into siding?
Not specifically no, but you just cut and angle so it's tight to the wall and trim the protruding edge back and inch so it allows the drip edge to extend back, with the thick edge resting flush against the j channel
i like your videos, do you have your own big company? or do you get houses from companies and give work to your crews or crew? ( like an LLC)
I do my own work. 99% of the time
Are you licensed in Illinois? I need a total roof tear off and replacement. I live in Steger Illinois.
On the rake, you could foils the extra drip around the sub facia band. Keep in mind when the gutter comes in behind the drip edge, this keeps the water that comes down the edge of the rake from getting into the facia seams that come together at the corner
Can't do that! This is a very common comment but the thing about the gutter is it goes out past the drip edge. All gutters extend about an inch past the edge of fascia. What you do is wrap the fascia, not the drip edge or gutter apron. That protects the wooden sub fascia. See my most recent video on fascia, it explains it all. Anybody who does that has a gutter that is too short, or the gutter guy cut that fascia and did it the right way
Actually I've done gutters for 8years now, and also a certainteed certified master shingle applicator. Im telling you from experience you can wrap your drip, giving a nicer reveal, better water protection, and get the gutter an inch past the shingle line. We do it all the time, and I actually prefer the lazy method where people leave it hang heavy as opposed to the cut method so we can cut and wrap it ourselves afterwards if it's been missed
I agree you wrap your fascia as well, but I'm telling you there is also a way to wrap the drip edge and you can put a wrap on top of a wrap and it's always a cleaner reveal
Everyone in the comments I guess is an expert when it comes to UA-cam lol
Could you treat the wood under the flashing to to prevent rotting.
Roofing in the middle of July as a redhead - bill burr
Love your video's, why are some starter strips half width (skinny) and some I've seen you install full width (fat).
If you're talking about in other videos I used some fatter ones..yea I preferred those taller ones but that brand quit making em and I moved towards using the manufacturer starter these days over what I prefer anyway. For example if I'm using GAF shingles on a job I'm gonna always use their starter and ridge cap as well. 3 components for the warranty.
round here ..
If you put the rake starter on Frist an butt the bottom starter to the rake starter u can start with a full shingle rite off the bat cuz that starter is what 6 an some change wide It mite even be 7 but with that style of starter that is how I always do my books
A man knows his job.... A man doesn't wear useless toolbags to do a demo video of how to make a roof.
Why not use the "peel and stick" msterial over the entire wood sheeting? Could that be done and would that be better? Thank you.
spider at 8:03 i would've ran away for sure
“I saw a guy staple his hand one time, good thing he’s fired” 😂
You still have a few things to learn
Would love a video on how to do hip roofs
I have a race between me and another guy. If you have any experience I'm sure it'll be easy to pick some things up
Just look down my list of videos n You'll find it. Not far
depends where you are. it goes under the drip edge in florida.
plus you guys gatta tar right? i meant to mention it but video took too long.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Yes we gotta tar. Would definitely help you to throw out occasionally in your videos that what your doing is according to code compliance in your region.
what are all these material called? drip edge? flashing? roofing felt? starter?
My family house got hit by hurricane took some shingles off, wish you company is located where I live, because it looks like you know what you are doing
The codes in Florida is complete different
So if your doing more then what the ice and water covers and your using paper up the rest do you lower the paper to the bottom of the top laminate?
Nvm this video answered my question lol
You don’t bend your drip/ gutter around around the corner? IMO that’s the best and cleanest way to do it.
thank you for the video. when i can use the ice & water berrier? and when i will use flat roofing underlayment ? can i just use the ice & water to cover all my roofing ? thank you
Ice and water is usually required along the eve edges to extend 2 ft past the inside of the exterior wall, and in valleys. I'd check your local code though with your building department. Depends on the area
@@NWIVeteranConstruction please please can i get your phone number if you don’t mind ❤️
I’ve never even done a roof in my life and even I know that trim isn’t supposed to be tight against the face. There should be 3/8-1/2” space, so the water can’t climb back up and is forced to drip off the edge.
yup! no less than 10!
You got a tool belt on ....
Do cap nails help at all for ice and water & felt?
