    As someone that just got done with their first day of roofing I can tell you that it is rough especially when it's well over 100 degrees ferrenheit on the roof. This job is no joke. Watch your every step with those nails. If your doing this in a cooler part of the world you should consider yourself lucky. Be safe

      I like what u do when u only have like 3 or 4 inches give or take from the end of the shingle to the end of the house, so u just put like a what 10-12 inch piece on and then a full one after it, instead of a lil chunker at the end.. sometimes u may still have to cut off some if it over hangs... if im saying that right... haa ive been with my company for like 3 yrs now,

    One of the most common and significant challenges that roofers deal with on a daily basis is weather and environmental factors. Here's why:
    **Weather and Environmental Challenges:**
    1. **Unpredictable Weather Conditions:** Roofing work is highly weather-dependent. Rain, snow, wind, and extreme temperatures can disrupt roofing projects, making it challenging to maintain consistent work schedules and deadlines.
    2. **Safety Concerns:** Adverse weather conditions increase the risk of accidents and injuries for roofers working at elevated heights. Slippery surfaces and strong winds can compromise safety, necessitating extra precautions and sometimes leading to project delays.
    3. **Material Durability:** Weather conditions can affect the durability of roofing materials over time. Intense sunlight, moisture, and temperature fluctuations can lead to premature deterioration, causing the need for repairs or replacements sooner than expected.
    4. **Installation Challenges:** Extreme heat or cold can affect the installation of roofing materials, impacting their quality and longevity. Cold weather can make materials more brittle, while high temperatures can lead to adhesive issues.
    5. **Inefficient Workdays:** Weather interruptions can lead to inefficiencies. Roofers might have to halt work midway, leading to loss of time and effort in setting up and packing tools and materials.
    6. **Client Expectations:** Homeowners and businesses expect roofing projects to be completed within a reasonable timeframe. Weather-related delays can strain client relations and lead to customer dissatisfaction.
    7. **Project Delays:** Prolonged weather-related disruptions can cascade into project delays, which can have financial and scheduling implications for both the roofing company and its clients.
    8. **Emergency Repairs:** Severe weather events can lead to emergency repair requests from clients dealing with leaks or other damage. Roofers must respond promptly, even in challenging weather conditions.
    To address these challenges, roofing contractors need to carefully plan their schedules, monitor weather forecasts, take safety precautions, and communicate effectively with clients to manage expectations. Embracing technology, utilizing weather tracking tools, and having contingency plans in place can help mitigate the impact of weather-related challenges.
