Gable end roof altered to hip end roof ***PLUS SOME MAGIC***

- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Sometimes we have to alter our work, and in this video, I show how I altered the gable end detail of a small porch roof to a hipped end detail with minimal work involved.
Hi Del, another great video, would you mind if I pointed some thing out. when I had a difference like you had there with the rafter and the ridge i would then mitre the two rafters the difference between the rafter and ridge together bringing you to a corner for the hip to fit into I may not have explained it very well but it does work. Thanks again Del
Hi Peter🖐That's absolute genius, and so obvious now you point it out🤯Have a great weekend😎Cheers Del
Wish I could understand this alternative solution, tried with pen and paper sketches and I'm baffled. Please please enlighten me
Hi Del, is Peter saying that he would have cut a mitre on the 10mm difference of the wall common seeing this is 10mm thicker than the ridge, and just one normal 45° splay on the other side of the hip ?
@@chrisdormer1061 Hi mitre both rafters and so the one to the left of the hip would move towards the corner that amount to still keep it a perfect square then cut your normal splay cuts to the top of the hip and the hip will now still run at 45 across the corner.
@@amazing451 Hi Kevin. Read what Peter has added👍 The cut you describe in the first part of your comment, is basically mirrored on the top of the adjoining rafter, thus allowing the rafters to meet, at that mitre point, in the exact, 45 degree line of the hip👊Peter has thought about this problem in a much simpler way than I have, and finding different ways to achieve the same result, is why I love our job so much😎(hope you get this to Chris🤩)
The hip end looks better , lovely job again , always learn something watching you , have a good weekend
Hi Mark🖐Yes bud, it does make it look a softer👍Thanks for watching and your comment😎Cheers Del
Don't you just love professional tradesmen... they make it look so easy! but they also teach diy'ers like me and many others that we can do it too, so cheers Del for all your videos and the helpful information you give.
Hi Andy🖐It's an absolute pleasure making and posting videos, and I appreciate great comments like yours😎Cheers Del

Hi Tim🖐You know it my brother😉Gripping the freezing cold, frost covered ladder is always a pleasure🥶Great comment and thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
So much neater with the return hips, especially on the pipes out of view on frontage. Great, as usual Del.
That's what I though Bob👍Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del

Thos Porotherm blocks have never really taken off in the U.k Good work on your part especially managing to film it all. There are days when you really can't be bothered to get the camera out.

@@thetallcarpenter I was wondering what ever happened with your buddy who’s tools were stolen hopefully he’s doing a little better if possible !
@@johnspencer1145 He's getting back on top thanks John👍
Nice job Del
Thanks Ivan😎Cheers Del
Nice little alteration there Del . You’re lucky the front of that house didn’t fall on you . That bond was well dodgy 😳😬🤣🧱👍🏼
It's is shocking guys, and to believe houses were built like this😖Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
You can't beat a hip end. Best structurally and I think best looking.
I agree Dave🤗Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
😄 just like me Del i always sling the saw too.
Hi Chris🖐I'm not precious about these saws👊They are throw away after all😝Thanks for watching😎Cheers Del
Very neat Sir new subscriber bren
Hi Bren🖐Thanks for comment and for subscribing🤩Cheers Del
Thanks Del !
My pleasure Brit🤗Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
Pretty sure it would’ve been fine not to rip the rafter down? Nice job though del👍
Your probably right SF🤔Cheers Del
Excelente trabajo👌👌👌💪💪💪
Thanks for watching Vianka🤩Cheers Del 😎
great job, if it wouldn't be a problem, could you please give me the dimensions of the wood, I mean thickness and width,what long timber did you use, were they joined or one timber?I will be very grateful, best regards, Peter
Hi del. Pleasure to watch as always! I’m a builder always after tips for carpentry. Just curious, instead of plumbing a line down to measure out to the plate to get your measurement for the other common rafter ready for your hip. Can you also just measure back from plate to rafter against house and whatever measurement that is measure bk the other way for the position of your other rafter to get them square together? Cheers
Hi Jase🖐Yes bud, as long as its all square and level, you can measure back from the plate as you describe👊Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
Nice video and work as usual Del.i quick question please when u used that common rafter to mark the length of the top plate was that rafter exactly the same length as the rest of the commons or had you shortened it by half it own thickness or adjust it in any other way,.
Hi Brian🖐That end common was exactly the same length as the commons in the run of the roof. Just pretend that the top wall plate is a ridge board👍Cheers Del
Brilliant great to watch great information can I ask what make of circular saw your using my next purchase after having my tools stolen
Hi Trevor🖐Sorry to hear about your tools😩and the saw is Makita DHS680👍Thanks for watching 😎Cheers Del
Marvellous craftsmanship as always T.C, 👍 I had a look at those Surf n Turf canopies on UA-cam, they seem pretty solid. Any chance you could do a video review of your one? Thanks, 🔨 🇮🇪
Hi TN🖐I've found mine really good👊I'll do a quick video of it, as a few other guys have asked about these😎Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter Outstanding T.C, thanks 👍 😁 🔨 🇮🇪
Lovely little job Del.
It's never great re-doing work, but it wasn't to bad👊Thanks for watching bud😎Cheers Del
good job
Cheers Truus👍Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
What the hell are those blocks 🤮🤮. Maybe in a Spanish hotel..
Always a pleasure to watch you work, quality 👍
Hi G🖐I'm glad I don't come across them very often😬Like you say, the sort of materials you find on dodgey Spanish hotels🤪Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
👍
Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
I hate changing stuff but blimey who built that blockwork lol, there are toggle fixings for these blocks but I find the Spanish way best just smash a hole in them and fill it with Plaster of Paris, goes of in minutes then screw and plug into that 👌
Hi Andy🖐The original house was absolutely lashed up with these awful blocks, and it doesn't surprise me that you've got experience with them🤩Thanks for watching😎Cheers Del
Agreed, that block work is a right dogs dinner! 🙄🔨🇮🇪
Good one Del 🤟 but what is with the block work , 🤠😅👏🇮🇪☘️👍
Its a shocker John😮The house probably lashed up by cowboys🤠Cheers Del
Great work. What size of nail are you using in this roof please?
Hi Dave🖐I pretty much always use 90mm framing nails for nailing rafters etc👊Cheers Del
Do you need to still allow for the hip drop for this ? Take off half the thickness of the hip on the seat cut with the roofing square ?
Hi Brit🖐The way I mark out my hips and also cut the corner of the plates at 45 degrees, (the same width as the hip), means I don't actually 'drop' the hip👍I might do a video explaining the two different methods👊Thanks for your comment and for watching 😎 Cheers Del
Carpentry very good 👍
Thank you Jason C🤩Cheers Del
Del just wanted to ask l have seen some lean to roofs with the rafters at the top bird's mouthed over the wall plate rather than abutting the plate with a plumb cut. Is there any reason why it would be done this way rather than how you did it. As a roofer means l can get the batten closer to the wall other than that l can't think of another benefit.
Hi Paul🖐Basically for me, on smaller spans I just fix a rafter with a plumb cut to a wall plate at the top(ridge), and for longer spans, I cut a birdsmouth on the top of the rafter and sit it on a wall plate👍In the past, the building inspector has not been happy with a nailed plumb cut at the top on larger spans, so I aways sit them on the plate with the rafter birdsmouthed over. On smaller spans, (less loading), nails between the plumb cut and ridge are more than strong enough💪(as I believe they would be on larger spans, if it wasn't for building inspectors)Thanks for your comment 😎 Cheers Del
Thanks Del makes sense now given the roofs I've seen
@@paulnicholls5600 👍😎
Never saw a carpenter cut of a corner to fit a hip.
Hi Robert🖐Super simple and brings the edges of the hip into the roof line instead of the centre and then having to drop it👊Cheers Del
How was the fixing into those terracotta block I see you used the mortar joint they are a nightmare to fix to 😡
Hi Robert🖐I take it you've had experience with these awful blocks😩Yeah, only could get a decent fixing in the perps👊Thanks for watching😎Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter I’m doing a bathroom conversion at the moment and they are the inside wall skin it’s a good job the units are free standing ,I should be able to get a fixing unlike the previous builders who were relying on silicone to hold the sink and toilet 😂
@@robertbowen2129 They are notoriously difficult to fix to, so just as well you have floor standing furniture🤩Cheers Del
Clay pot hollow blocks, I’ve come across them in 1930s house’s and indeed a pain to get a fixing to.
I used spring toggles for hanging radiators and sleeve frame fixings for wall plates same as Del did.
@@traveller017 Horrible things those blocks😖
Hi, do you need planning to install the canopy?
Hi Jason🖐This canopy had planning permission, and I wouldn't want to build one without it👍Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter Ta, was the planning specific to the canopy or part of other work? I just want to install a canopy nothing else get mixed comments about planmimg is needed or not as its just a roof IE no doors or sides
@Jason Parker There was an existing, smaller, canopy roof already there, so this new one was just bigger. I have another video showing me building a big porch with a canopy roof, which did not have planning. Some of the neighbours complained, and the customer applied for retrospective planning permission. The planners took one look at the photo the customer sent in, and said, 'don't bother with an application as it looks fine' 👊

Which model of Makita Circular Saw is that TC & what’s the blade size size fella??
Hi FW🖐It's the DHS680 with a 165mm blade👍(great little tool)🤩Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter Thanks Del👍👍
It's a good job they weren't ring shank nails lol
Too right Wayne😬Cheers bud
Could i use the self tapping concrete bolts in the modern style perforated engineering bricks or would resin be better. Going to attempt to make a lean to veranda. cheers
Hi Paul🖐I think concrete screws would be fine and I would advise not to go to hard when drilling as those bricks can splinter a little leaving an irregular hole👍Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter Spot on, thanks 👍
🤘😎🤘
Thanks for watching Wayne👊😎👊
Quality
Cheers Craig🤩
Them rafters come off way to easy, what fixings did you use for your wall plates
Hi FB🖐My 4 foot breaker bar makes everything come off easy💪I used M10x100mm Fischer fixings for the wall plate, drilled into the perps👊Cheers Del
I would have probably used 12mm resin bolts on the wall plate but in reality it’s over the top. I use those Fischer frame fixers all the time and I’ve installed and extracted enough to know that they will hold tonnes of weight when used correctly. I can try and remove them with a 4foot nail bar and no chance.
@@gdfggggg Hi there🖐These blocks have completely hollow cores, so resin would have been no use😬I got a decent fixing with M10 Fischers in the perp joints👊Thanks for your comment 😎 Cheers Del
@@thetallcarpenter ah, those perp joints are underrated!

Seriously man, who’s gone see that with a hip tile ontop of it 😂
