Good stuff to know

[@tharealcognac]

Will this work if the person going on the roof is 270lbs?

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

I’m 240, and can usually walk on tile roofs without breakage. It matters allot on what tiles you’re actually walking on.

[@niceadz6164]

Im in the south of France... all they have is battons holding the tiles in place....WTF... You can see the underside ofvthe tiles in my attic 😢

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

Hey, you guys build better roofing systems than America, don’t worry at all. Roofs in France last 100yrs

[@dangnguyen9137]

Your a God! Thanks!!!

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

Not sure about that 😁

[@monkey9933]

Thank you. Felt like a weird turtle up there but nothing broke!

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

Lol, I know the feeling. You’ll get used to it

[@altijdgamez1468]

tile roofer here
what this man mostly says is correct but everything mostly depends on how old the tiles are fresh new ones you can mostly place your foot everywhere
in this video the roof angle itself is really flat but it can also degree more to the sky, in that case you are most certain need to place your feet horizon angle on 1 roof tile for most grip possible otherwise you will just slide down and hurt yourself
dont try this with really old roof tiles doesnt matter how you do it most certain you will break some maybe alot depending on
his weight was 200 pound in my country thats 90 kilos most of my co workers all have big beer stomachs and are way over that and still can walk normaly over it
again only try this on fresh new tiles old ones will break doesnt matter what material from clay to concrete

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

Thank you for watching. Totally agree with you, makes a big difference on the age of tiles.
What country are you from?

[@lovelessissimo]

How old is an old tile

[@josedorado6754]

Yea, what’s considered an old tile?

[@altijdgamez1468]

@@lovelessissimo sorry for the late response a old tile is when it hits its older age of replacement fresh new tiles can easily be walked on like on this video but on old tiles lets say 8/10 maybe fresher will certain break best thing is simply to remove the tile and stand there on the wooden holder of the tiles forgot the name of it because my english sucks

[@rinzler9775]

"dont try this at home"
Makes sure he uses someone else's help home 😂

[@RoofRepairSpecialist]

Careful, wet and especially mossy tiles get slippery

[@yarbjamel6132]

I usually walk like a cat 2 hands and 2 legs for a higher roof.

[@thecaesar7942]

Ok but my feet is only 4 lol

[@garbanzofish3551]

So if you’re 400 pounds, that food is screwed either way lol

Common sense would have kept you from leaving this comment. ;)

These clips are shown when you have nothing to say . If you have to tell unprofessional people how to walk on roof tiles . Just think perhaps they shouldn't be up there.
