that is a real woman, one that can get in there and get the job done, not worried about the nail varnish or powder. These days there are far too few that have any skill set or working knowledge of the industrial arts. Oceanography or botany classes your not going to miss, but knowing vehicle maintenance, building construction, welding, wood shop, electrical, all play huge as you get older and can save big big $$, plus knowing it was done wright. Girls like you have alot to bring to the table, well done!!
Seeing a woman know a skill like that is amazing I've done a lot of roofing in my life mostly shingles and metal haven't had a chance to do a slate roof yet much respect to this woman
Nicely done! Quick question though - as a DIYer who always likes to learn, why did she bend the tingle back on itself? I recently replaced a slipped slate on our roof and used a copper tingle to retain the replaced slate but I didn't bend it back over itself. Is this just to make it less visible or does it improve retention or something? Thanks.
Catches less debris and ice,which has the propensity to bend open after some years, although I rarely do that. I always put a piece of ice and snow over pulled nail holes in tarpaper . And use copper nails for the expansion and contractions copper bends to the movement. Steel galvanized doesn't give and will crack the slate.
Omfg! Where did you get that tool? My father had one made by a welder probably 70 years ago and I’ve never seen one since. I used it quite a bit for wooden shingles asphalt shingles. It works wonders for shingle replacements. And that’s a neat trick with the bracket to hold the last tile. With asphalt shingles I’ve bent to top one just enough to hammer in a nail on the lower one and still be covered by the top one. I suppose wood shingles could be done the same with a similar bracket.
It depends on how the roof was constructed, some slate roofs just have sarking boards and no battens. If that was sarking board it would be sitting perfectly 👍
Anyone talking shit needs to bump it on down the street. I roof in Michigan. It's a little different ball game, but still relatable. I commend her for getting up there. Thanks for sharing! Get er done 💪
Fair play for even being on a roof , bit off advice use black bitumen along with the strap it stops the slate rattling in the wind, & if possible use lead strap not tin , as leads folds easier into place
The head of the last slate wasn’t on the lath in needed to go up another 10mm You can use the adjacent slates to slide them into place or put the ripper underneath and slide up the ripper
I noticed that if the slate had been punched the other side the head of the nail sits flush in the recess allowing the slate on top to lay flat, was a roofer for 40 years….
Only thing I seen wrong was she wasn't wearing safety glasses when punching the holes in the slate. The slate shards could really slice up your eye if you got some in your eye since it's sharp.
Soft metal tingles are for bodgers, if you’re going that route, use a proper slate hook. If a slate falls from above, that is getting bent down and releasing your ‘so called’ fix.
She’s on the slates. Maybe the uk slate are stronger but standard slate think was in the USA is3/16th and she just took decades off the section she stood on
That substrate was shaking on first tile pull. I can see straight into the house lol. That roof needs more than a tooth pulled lol. And why is the worker wearing painters cloths 😂. Let me scrape and scratch more damage then before I got here. The hammer Sound can’t get more hollow
where’s your $200 german stortz slate hammer? and your papar thin stortz ripper ? it makes slate repair faster and it doesn’t beat up the roof and your shoulder like that 15 pound estwing 😛
Nice job I think in the end but not sure about the method, a lot of scraping of the slates and seemed to make hard work of sliding the slates back into position. Looked a bit clumsy and messy. Guess she is learning so fair enough.
How is it floating ? It's flush to the bottom of the slates next to them so it must be on the batten what do you think she nails the lead strip to ? F@ck all? . It's why she uses the ripper to pull the clouts out
Dang girl your amazing. I would love to meet you. I've been in construction 50 years. I'm also a beleiver in Jesus Christ. To some that makes me a predator. But He is thecway the truth and the light. Man only has darkness. I'll stick with the cteatorvof all things. Hopefully your dad is proud of you.

Nah. Dabbling in welding serves no purpose for 99.9% of people
Cracking work keep it up ur dad's a good egg to learn from your dad should be proud well done 👏
Brilliant seeing our next generation keeping these skills and knowledge alive...!!!...REAL ROOFING at its best...!!!
Seeing a woman know a skill like that is amazing I've done a lot of roofing in my life mostly shingles and metal haven't had a chance to do a slate roof yet much respect to this woman
It’s far from skilled repair,my 9 year old nephew would do the same way
Next generation?
She looks to be about 30
Great work girl. Yes your Dad must be a proud man ❤
I am! Very proud man
@@theroofingoutlawFair play
Bien la Miss bon courage pour la suite ..Alain..
👍🏻 Great job Roof Girl. Massive respect to you. Not a job I could do especially as I get dizzy on a thick carpet 🤣😂
Omg every action carried out perfectly, uour daughters something special hope my girl turns out aswel
Wow she’d make a great secret service agent, that’s a steep roof
😂
What are you talking about?
It's really not that steep
@@LaneLone that’s my point, in the assassination attempt the secret service said they didn’t have people on sloped roofs
Насчёт агента не знаю, но жена вышла офигенная. Вот повезло кому-то❤
She's the best looking roofer I've ever seen.
She looks like she has all of her teeth too!
😂@@alexandrepiche5609
Youve not seen me sweetcheeks 😂
Youve not seen me fsrling
Well done that girl 👏👏👏 better than some blokes repairs I’ve seen 👍
This is awesome too see, you got this girl! 💯 well done dad 👌🏻
Had sons. Wish I had a daughter. She will always take care of dad years from now. Nice video.

Ok. Sweep chips off the area before installing replacement slate. Straighten replacement slate some. Fair job, keep it up !
Should use the handle of the hammer to push the slates up so not to damage them.
And split the rubber handle of a £70 Estwing? A few taps won't damage the slate I've done hundreds of roofs
@@KuwaharaBMXRidershould be using a slate hammer wooden handle built for the job.
1 thing is for sure, a 22 ounce framing hammer is not for driving 1 inch nails into natural slate 😂
Seen as she didn’t damage the slate why the negative comment .
Excellent video. Thank you and well done.
Bet when she’s home she’s boss of the room lights of 😂🔥
Ex roofer here!
I'm impressed! 👍
It looks like a painter bought a 22 ounce framing hammer and went roofing 😂 that slate is nailed so hard 😂
I was literally thinking 'get them gloves off' your hands will get used to it, then she did at the end 😂
She is a dream! ❤
Das sind die richtigen Frauen die Mal mit anpacken ❤❤
Came here as a man of culture. Pretty blonde.
Stayed and was very impressed with the skill she used and learnt. Job well done.
She's still learning too
Well done grate tip,very pritty,
Clearly learning fast! Let's face it - it takes guts to be a roofer!
It certainly does! Roof Girl puts a lot of men to shame.
So satisfying to watch
The repair looks great.
One small criticism though, i think the hammer you used was a little small and you could do with a bigger one 😂
Im wahs a Roofer one Year Long of German Dachdecker.A Great Job 👍👍
Impressive👍👍👍
What a beautiful hard worker ❤️
❤❤and a Master on that 24oz Estwing 👍👍
Better SLATE than never!!! 🏚
Glad you taught them right🌶♥️

Called a Slate Ripper. Can pick them up from merchants.
Last slate, not sure if it were sat on baton, usually put nail either side to lift slate, then knock it up ?
It depends on how the roof was constructed, some slate roofs just have sarking boards and no battens. If that was sarking board it would be sitting perfectly 👍
Thanks. where can one get those lead strips from? Or just cut a piece out from a sheet of lead?
Nice smooth action on those very fragile slates
Nice to see males.saying something positive about a female undertaking 'male' jobs ❤
Yes, but because its actually earned.....
I did a bit of slating roofs in my time. Go girl!!
Anyone talking shit needs to bump it on down the street. I roof in Michigan. It's a little different ball game, but still relatable. I commend her for getting up there. Thanks for sharing! Get er done 💪
Great job,the shingles are toost 🎉
Brilliant I have some roofing repairs to do .your video has helped me thanks.x
Fair play for even being on a roof , bit off advice use black bitumen along with the strap it stops the slate rattling in the wind, & if possible use lead strap not tin , as leads folds easier into place
Brilliant lots of skills
Well done 👏🏻
You are killin it ;)
well done great job .
Keep it up! Good work!

The head of the last slate wasn’t on the lath in needed to go up another 10mm
You can use the adjacent slates to slide them into place or put the ripper underneath and slide up the ripper
Great effort!
Ребят, подскажите пожалуйста, что это за церепица? Из чего она сделана? Если есть возможность, то ссылку на сайт, где продаётся эта черепица.
Do you ever use the hall spring clips?
I noticed that if the slate had been punched the other side the head of the nail sits flush in the recess allowing the slate on top to lay flat, was a roofer for 40 years….
Do you do bedroom floors as well love? 🤪
Cant be using a heavy hammer like that for slate....and use couple battens nails either side of slate to see-saw/pivot the slate onto the head batten.
Whats the area you guys/gals work? In the USA?
If only the Secret Service had skills like this.
I think I'm in love 😍
Awesome job👍❤️
Only thing I seen wrong was she wasn't wearing safety glasses when punching the holes in the slate. The slate shards could really slice up your eye if you got some in your eye since it's sharp.

Get ya pockets on luv. Great work 😁
Молодец!!!👍⚘️
Is it on the top lath?Don't think so 😮
Из чего эта кровля? Что за материал?
Крыша из консервных банок?
Wow way cool and very pretty
Use the rubber end to knock up the slate hahaha 😂
Go on girl
Good skills....
Fair play try using a smaller hammer not a 24oz estwing
She got down I don't care what people say
How is she getting on, still roofing?
That substrate was shaking on first tile pull. I can see straight into the house lol. That roof needs more than a tooth pulled lol. And why is the worker wearing painters cloths 😂. Let me scrape and scratch more damage then before I got here. The hammer
Sound can’t get more hollow
Красивая девушка супер ремонтирует крышу❤❤❤
💯💯💯💯💯💯клас эта проста супер
Good work I hope she followed the main rule as soon as she or hims or shit ( legal purposes ) got down the ladder. ?
That’s going to leak🙄🙄🙄🙄any other roofers just shaking there head here 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Like from Russia👍
This dad proud of you
where’s your $200 german stortz slate hammer? and your papar thin stortz ripper ? it makes slate repair faster and it doesn’t beat up the roof and your shoulder like that 15 pound estwing 😛
Cenie takie kobiety powodzenia w pracy
Błądząc po jutubie tutaj trafiłem.Pracowałem na dachach w usa,takie naprawy też wykonywałem he he,ten sam młotek miałem i mam go do dzisiaj
She's Good 👍🍻
For people who like roofing...i am a licesed roofer from NL/LV and here is some compilation of my work. Editor can also use my video on his page.❤🎉
Would like to learn more from her
Nice job I think in the end but not sure about the method, a lot of scraping of the slates and seemed to make hard work of sliding the slates back into position. Looked a bit clumsy and messy. Guess she is learning so fair enough.
She's an apprentice, learning as she goes!
@@theroofingoutlaw yes, realised that after, sorry.
Next time, slide in the slate puller over the batten before slide in the last slate.👍
She is a Bonnie Tyler 👌🏽🙌🏽
Very good 😂
@@mikeyyoyo6464 🤣
👌👌👌👌👌👌
People in comments obs are not roofers , first slate was lucky to land on the lath the second slate is floating not a great job
How is it floating ? It's flush to the bottom of the slates next to them so it must be on the batten what do you think she nails the lead strip to ? F@ck all? . It's why she uses the ripper to pull the clouts out
You can see it’s floating because it’s not flush with the slates next to it , I can tell your a site worker lol
Straight claw 20oz Estwing ❤
Yorkshire ?
