    Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.

      @@amathonn First of all "peel n stick" roofs require a smooth surface to adhere to. That's why they make a "base" sheet underlayment that installs first. Then the peel n stick membrane adheres to that. Second you NEVER put a nail in it! Especially in the overlap seam! Third it requires a edge metal that goes around the perimeter edge for it to adhere to correctly to prevent wind from getting under and blowing it off! I honestly don't know how people get by doing shotty work like this!! I promise you it didn't stick and you could pull it up with ease! People PLEASE check your contractors credentials and get references before hiring them!

    Um... holy crap. this is an underlayment where the manufacturer specifically states NEVER to apply to an old roof but to ONLY apply "directly to plywood, OSB (Oriented strand board), wood planks, concrete, or masonry or Loadmaster surfases. Weather Watch Leak Barrier should be covered with roofing as soon as possible and no more than 60 days after installation" quote from SDS. I honestly think this guy got this confused for peel and stick roofing, of which he still would have done wrong. I mean, geez the amount of lawsuit-worthiness is beyond comprehension with this one.

      @@mrreams711 As noted above, product instructions clearly indicate that the WeatherWatch material has a limited time after installation before the final roofing is installed over it. If exposed for too long, UV damage may occur, the product lifetime will be shortened and the warranty will expire. Others have used WeatherWatch as the final roofing treatment as well, but this is not in compliance with the manufacturer's instructions. It obviously works, but the durability and performance over time will suffer.

    The video is priceless. The job is also priceless as no one should ever pay for what he did. Once I saw his pants covered in paint and mud, immediately I said to my wife “this clown is not a roofer”. The video, however, gave me a number of emotions: rage, laughter, tears, shock, it kept me in suspense on how he is going to finish the last row. The culmination “tucking it under J-channel” was that twist I haven’t seen in movies since Inception. The ending will leave me wondering about the outcome and I will never know, even though I suspect... Therefore, this masterpiece of a short film deserves 👍🏻

    no this is not rolled roofing, this is weather watch ice and water shield, as a previous comment stated it is not meant to be exposed to the elements. the way it works, is as an underlayment. the tar in the asphalt on the rubber sticky backing heats up and seals off nail heads. use this material as an underlayment for all your eaves, valleys, and roof to walls. any time you use ice and water shield use cap nails and remove all the backing, as well as the plastic strip at the transition (avoid nailing 3" from each side of the valleys)
    here is what you should do
    1. Remove everything down to the decking, or tear out the decking and install new decking, best way to go is with a zip system. use new drip edge with an asphalt primer
    2. Use SA Base sheet Run it under the new drip, with cap nails the run cap sheet over the top of it let it hang over the drip about 1/2"
    3. take of the siding and run both base and cap sheet 8" up the wall and put roll flashing, zip tape the roll flashing on then reinstall the siding

      you're wrong, it's not an underlayment. Absolutely meant to be used as an exposed layer and comes with a lifetime warranty from the big boxes. Just because you don't know about it, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.

    • @RoofingFacts
      @RoofingFacts 4 роки тому +3

      ​@@infraprods ​
      Now let's pretend that 1510.3 doesn't exist and this was put on to code, and instead of consulting any legal body or AHJ, let us actually consult the manufacturer, since you don't believe.
      Let's see the manufacturer's videos where they identify it as an UNDERflashing not to be installed on top ua-cam.com/video/rUpE0aPZn-E/v-deo.html
      Or where they call it an ice dam/leak barrier for underlayment...
      No no no. Just because the manufacturer posted a video saying it doesn't mean it is true. I mean they have multiple videos maybe they didn't identify all it's potential uses. What about the next video, ua-cam.com/video/39j3xXq62KY/v-deo.html
      Crap. They call it underlayment. Oh wait, let us quote the manufacturer's video at 2:11 "make certain that all of the weatherwatch or storm guard is covered by the drip edge as these products are not designed to be permanently exposed to sunlight." This is the EXACT product he used.
      Ok so the manufacturer's reps aren't the brightest. how about reading the side of the box or instructions? gafmc.com.ua/documents/WeatherWatch/WeatherWatch%20ApplicationInstructions.pdf
      Now we will ignore the MULTIPLE installation instructions he also ignored like overlapping, metal details, etc., and skip directly to .... oh wait. literally the first line of the instructions.
      "Weather Watch® Leak Barrier Application
      Instructions
      Weather Watch® Leak Barrier may be applied directly
      to plywood, OSB (oriented strand board), wood planks
      (non-chamfered edges), concrete or masonry or Loadmaster
      surfaces. Weather Watch® Leak Barrier should be covered
      with roofing as soon as possible and within 60 days after its
      installation. Backnail every 18” (45.72cm) in the selvage edge"
      should be covered with roofing as soon as possible and within 60 days after its installation....
      Covered with roofing as soon as possible and within 60 days...
      Covered with roofing... within 60 days....
      WAIT WAIT WAIT the instructions are different if reroofing!!!! My apologies
      "Reroofing: After removing shingles or existing metal roof,
      roofing felts, nails, and fasteners from area to be covered
      with Weather Watch® Leak Barrier, replace water-damaged
      sheathing and sweep roof deck thoroughly. Priming is not
      required for attachment to wood surfaces. Concrete and
      masonry surfaces must be primed with ASTM D-41 primer
      prior to the application of the leak barrier."
      And then you have to cover it in ACTUAL ROOFING IN 60 DAYS
      Ok so we have determined that every youtuber and roofer here is not as smart as you and does not know how to install this. And now we have determined the manufacturer lies in it's videos. And the manufacturer apparently can neither read it's own instructions or write them. Oh but wait!
      What about the International Code Council Evaluation Service Report aka ESR-1322. icc-es.org/report-listing/esr-1322/
      It is listed as underlayment or ice dam membrane only, with direct to deck applications... nothing about installing it as a top surface... except where it specifically says it must be covered by a roof covering. and also states it cannot PER CODE be installed on any roof under 2:12 slope.
      Ok so the International Code Council is only literally the governing body of code and has been since the late 90s, they are far to new and inexperienced. Clearly we need someone with closer to your experience and clearly infallible knowledge.
      Ok so it is classified as ASTM D1970, aka American Society for Testing and Materials aka "D1970: Standard Specification for Self-Adhering Polymer Modified Bituminous Sheet Materials Used as Steep Roofing Underlayment for Ice Dam Protection". But they have only been one of the leaders in testing since the late 1800's, what do they know.
      Sorry for the sarcasm, this was written for another person who has been fighting this tooth and nail for a year. I am, admittedly, copy and pasting this answer because it took me 5 whole minutes to type and research something that is literally as easy as googling the product name.

    I’m not a roofer but I am a woman. Besides other errors I feel he needs to use a roof roller to flatten the underpayment (oops does he not use any? Maybe not needed here.) he also should use a heavy roof roller on the cap sheet so there are no air pockets and to also assure no wrinkles. I feel his method leaves it wide open for the roof blowing up underneath with many air pockets and a roof redo will be in order.
