    Nice Job! I did something similar when I built a 12 x 12 lean to tractor shed. Used all pressure treated wood which was recycled from a decking project that I demolished. Total cost was less than $500. Thanks for posting the great video.

    Some advise on the shingle install. After a few rows measure from the top of the roof line to the last row installed and you can tweak and adjust. By the time you reach the end you will be able to have a flush finish.

    Nice build, good looking carport. The underlay you chose is good underlayment but you really should of gone w/ peel & stick for the low slope. Its the only underlayment that is bombproof on 1:12-3:12. 4:12 and above is fine for 2 layers of synthetic. You should of used starter shingle on your eaves and rakes as well or at at least put a thick layer of tar down on your eaves/rakes to prevent uplift in high wind events. The duration shingle you chose is a good shingle. Best regards.

    The job looks great!
    Pro tip - use proper starter flashing and not the gable flashing at the bottom so you can install the gutters at the proper pitch, buy some starter course roofing and not only use it on the bottom starter course but as bleeders up the gables of the roof, and finally buy the proper clear story flashing to install at the top.

    when I did roofing (I'm too old for that stuff now) I always tried to get the shingles delivered to the roof and did my cutting up there, but I'd straddle the peak with some saw horses, toe nailed down and cut on a temporary work table. you can't do that on the carport but the slope is likely low enough to just put the table near the high end. also park a dumpster where it's convenient to throw your scrap

    Looks great. Nice work. Did you consider installing rake edge shingles to prevent water runoff on the sides of the structure? My understanding of this practice is that it allows water to flow down to the gutter instead of drip off the sides.

    Reverse edge starter shingle is upside down, And be sure not to put a nail as you did on your third shingle that was in the joint, So do not put a nail in the offset area. Also the starter edge is also added along the gable ends so as to avoid shingle blow off. Also stick ice and water shield could have been used on the entire roof as it was a lower slope and snow will stay on it. Over all a great job !!

    I was going to build a gabled end carport for my Ford Transit DIY camper van, but I feel this lean-to version will be safer for me to build. I will need to make it taller for my van and I plan on not using those expensive beams, but will build them with PT heavy boards nailed together to create a solid beam. I did that with a deck I just built for my daughter in TN. I bought your plans and will modify them for my permit and purposes. I am in southern Indiana and I will not need such massive piers, but I will go with 12" square by 24"-20" deep ones. Thanks for the videos.

      We ended up having to take off hundreds of gaskets (when we couldn’t get gasketless screws) because in a year or two that gasket would break down and disintegrate and let water in. I’ve seen silicone still working from the 90’s when my boss first installed some stuff.

    Looks fantastic and matches perfectly. I wouldn't have guessed the traditional shingled roof would be permissible on such a shallow slope. Myself, I would've probably done a torch-down because they are sealed to the underlayment... but that wouldn't have matched the house. The $4k in gluelams seems a bit wild. Does WA get much snow? That structure looks like it'll support a helicopter pad someday.

    Very nice carport. I've never seen that asphalt roofing before here in Australia, but a quick Google says that it is legal and used here. We'd just throw Colorbond metal on it, and call it a day. So probably a row of battens, then metal, no plywood. But the look of the plywood from underneath is really nice, and the cost seems pretty competitive. Food for thought.

      Use ice and water shield on complete job if you ever install below a 3/12 pitch. He's at a 9 degree pitch here which is about 2/12. Everybody has their own ideas but I would have gone with ice and water on complete job underlayment.

  • @bestbladerevah
    @bestbladerevah Місяць тому +1

    Kentuckian here with experience in Federal Governmental Contracting here. You cannot use staples for your underlayment, you cannot use tape for your Ice/water barrier. the barrier has to go a minimum of 18-24" based on northerness region then you can lay down your drip edge. You NEED to use cap nails for your underlayment. When doing roofing and you don't remember the rules off hand you have to think, "Water will always follow gravity and can travel 6" uphill, so always overlap from bottom to top". Also shingle nails should be 4-6 depending on wind speed location which is high around florida and gets slower the more north you go. W/ shingles, you don't need to measure out 6", 13" or whatever, just do 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 shingle and cut, saves time especially with hook blades. Don't work row by row, do multiple rows and work in a 45 deg., from one corner to the opposite like you show @ 14:45. its best to rivet every sheet metal to sheet metal connection.
    Overall its really good and I'm sure a lot of time was put in and the more its done the better you'll get and that means the more money you're able to save due to finishing faster. there are a few flaws but thats to be expected from someone whos not doing 3-5 roofs a week. a lot of care and patience was put in and it shows

    • @billandwende
      @billandwende Місяць тому

      "You cannot use staples for your underlayment". Well he did and you can. The manufacture may not honor warranty but then again they never do anyway.
      "You cannot use tape for your Ice/water barrier" Again what he did was fine and better than most. It's a CARPORT! it's not a home. There is no need for anything even close to 18" of barrier in this application because it still a CARPORT!

      HAHA I was just thinking the same thing. I think roof clearance other than where the mast/weatherhead is located on the edge is supposed to be 14.5 feet for distribution services. Don't quote me on that. Regardless, I know a foot or even a couple feet over a roof is definitely not to code. I don't think the fact that this is just a carport makes any difference?

  • @hippo-potamus

    Why do the shingle nails not penetrate the 1/2 plywood? How tiny are they? I always thought they had to embed minimum 3/4 inch and if not punch through at least 1/8 inch.

    • @bretburt7317
      @bretburt7317 2 місяці тому +1

      By the manufacturers instructions, they need to penetrate a minimum of 1/4" through the sheathing.
      I also highly doubt that they are listed for this low of a slope application without much more of an overlap. Most shingles are very limited on low slope roofs, if at all. But, I may be wrong on this particular product.
      Other than that, BYOT killed the install. Redundancy is always a good thing.

    • @BYOTools
      @BYOTools  2 місяці тому

      There is a give and take when trying to satisfy the clients sometimes. They didn't want any penetrations since you could see the bottom side of the plywood. This carport is NOT in a high wind area at all so I'm not worries about any shingles coming loose overtime. Thanks s ouch for watching and appriciate the questions. Very good point to mention.

  • @Torbox1
    @Torbox1 2 місяці тому +2

    22:15 Hoping you misspoke but it looks like you didn't. Why use a perforated corrugated pipe? Its going to leak all the downspout water as it passes the shed. Also those leaf filters don't work very well and dump tons of water out when they catch leaves and don't eject them. Corrugated pipe will get clogged no matter what you do too. You should use solid 4 inch schedule 40 PVC pipe and no filter. The smooth walls of PVC wont collect or clog with leaves anywhere near as much as corrugated and you can install a cleanout at the drop so it doesn't need to be disassembled to clear a clog, it wont get crushed like corrugated will, can be connected securely for leak free joints, and can be buried . Other than that though it looks great. Nice work.
    I would have probably used plywood with one nice side and stained it before placing that side down so you don't see all the knots underneath but obviously you are constrained by the clients budget and nice finished plywood would cost more. The post and beam style construction looks awesome in my opinion, the homeowner can also stain the gluelam beams to match the pressure treated color better if they want but it seems to blend in once its in the shadow of the carport itself. The large connecting plates look cool and I would have loved to see more on the diagonal braces as well. It should also be easy to run power to the carport from the entryway to add some underside lights which would also be nice.

    Good build but the shingles… garbage! They won’t last! If you were covering that with sheet metal… you were done way way faster without any overlap needed!

    $4000 for those beams is an over kill - not sure if even if I had the money would spend $4000 on just 3 beams - 20 or 30 beams, sure, but 3 --nahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Nice work those power lines are lil close and from what I remember you look a lot like my husband.We were married as babys by free masons we married in many past lives and before that too.we are winged serpents but this life he always had to look and be someone else something to do with my eye and test. I always knew the future and left many books Winged Serpent Prophecies but had to forget this life cause he's my soul mate and we make the eyes and I fix the eyes and take the eyes when you die sounds crazy but very true and I remember years back he even said"BYOT You think I look like him" I had no clue what he meant at the time but no wonder I hate being human now😂🫣😞
