Small tips, always shingle the cricket first, stay away from the valley 8 inches for nailing, go back up there run a bead of black jack under the valley on both sides, run a bead of black jack over the top of the foil, you did a good job for roofing this as a dyi, I watched the video for building the cricket, all round good job and if it starts too leak again inspect the top of the chimney, alot of times when it rains water sits on top of the chimney and makes it way in, cock the fire walls that come out and if it keeps leaking grab some concrete and a bottle of bond and smear it on the sides and make a stucco looks then spray paint 🎨
Thanks for the tips, Leigh. Much appreciated! 👍🏻
I was thinking the same thing. The cricket is supposed to be shingled first😅
That’s crazy a cricket needs twice as much slope as the roof deck giving rain twice the velocity in any roofing system with posative water flow.
Excellent video very helpful, all 3 videos, thanks for posting.
you should take a grinder and cut a curf cut in the chimney about 3/4 inch deep, for cap flashing (one long piece) to go overtop the step flashing. After you cap flash, pack the cut with lead wool (like the old timers do) or just fill it with caulk. Some will use individual pieces of cap flashing, but that's easier to do while laying the brick, as they go into the motor joint area.
Been a roofer for 3 yrs never had to put in a cri ket but im sure its coming u did a good job good craftsmen ship professional job in my opinion
Much appreciated, Blake!
So after you repaired the chimney how much should a roofer make a day? Btw most roofers would have done that in the most 1 day at the most. You should have either cut your counter flashing into the bricks first or used termination bar . or made the entire cricket out of metal. Lots of different ways to go. As long as it don't leak I can't see it from my house. Old roofer joke, lol .
That was interesting to watch. I have to see his other videos now...
Thank you!
man I had my doubts at the first video but I'm now impressed and inspired to do my own too.
I can guarantee you your original flashing was done properly and you touched on the point in your cricket video why your original flashing was leaking. Yes you need to run you tar paper under the old tar paper and flash your metal in with ice and water or something like that seal and stick if this makes sense. You pay attention to details very well, this was great work by industry standard. Don’t be afraid to use black jack everywhere possible while keeping it neat. Great video.
However, it would only last as long as the metal could hold up to weathering/rust/holes. Maybe you could have used valley metal with your cricket it is about big enough then you would have minded the rule of not nailing within 8” of valley.
This is tuff. Never build a chimney and the drip edge always a problem over time.
🤔i noticed you didn’t bull that flashing. what state are you in? i know here in FL we always bull our rakes off ridge vents and flashing. also water line always goes to the highest side of the roof
I'm late to the party but wanted to say you did a better job than some "professionals" I know, lol. 👍
Thanks!
For your first time you did good. Those step flashings rust fast I can tell it’s the cheap aluminum ones not the metal ones. You ran the valley wrong way too. Water will get under Those shingles u nailed
Thanks for the tips.
Yeah I'm wondering the right way to shingle the valley because it's definitely wrong. The water running down the roof will go right under the shingles on the cricket. It at very least needs valley flashing under the main roof's shingles.
Looks good! Put top flashing when everything dries out?
Thanks! I did the final flashing in part 3.
Am I trippin or does he have a door real life on the ceiling 😂😂
Hope it's a hollow core door
U did right shingleing the Cricket 1st.
There 2 things I didn't see u do is 1, U didn't Tar (Black Jack) under your shingles running into the flashing, 2, the flashing should of been cut into the Brick the Caulked or something simular.
Myself, I would of ran 1 solid piece of Flashing instead of the stair stepping the pieces.
Sorry, I've yet to watch part 3, although I will tomorrow. I just had to comment about all of the negative comments. Some of them sound like they are from "professionals". As someone who has had their roof "repaired" by a "professional" and now am repairing their own roof, I applaud you. Have you done any worse than they might have done? I think not. They failed at repairing my roof and now I feel I can't do any worse. I would rather try and fail at a much lesser cost than have them try and fail after paying them a lot of money. I'm just saying. Thank you for the video. Best of luck to you, I hope part 3 tells me you succeeded.
Much appreciated! Very kind words. ... Incidentally, I had hail damage this year, and when a roofing company came out to assess, they said the cricket looked great.
Thank you for sharing will be doing my first as well hopefully I can do good as well
All the best on your project!
The water running down the roof will go right under the shingles on the cricket, it at least needs valley flashing under the shingles but I'm not a roofer so I don't know the best way to shingle and flash that valley.
Yes, I really should’ve reversed the way I roofed it. Thankfully there are no leaks. I tried to find the code on which side gets roof first, and I don’t think there is one, but if somebody can point it out that would be great. However, it does appear most roofers roof the little roof first, and have the bigger roof shed on top of it. Thanks for the comment!
@@FamilyFriendlyDIY If you're still looking, I watch Grand Roofing, he knows his stuff. He shows how to shingle that type of valley around the 17 minute mark of this video:ua-cam.com/video/mN_WBOBqRoE/v-deo.html. I wouldn't hesitate to do it the way he does, I have watched a lot of his videos and he always has a good reason to do it a certain way.
Goodjob
Not too religious anymore but that seemed like a tender mercy from the Lord to find that kneeling pad
My thoughts exactly, Benjamin. And I hope to see you in heaven one day. 😊
We always come short on the plywood at the ridge, now we add 1 1/2 inches to the plywood and it works fine
This works well with porches to
10 seconds in: “we know this is a right angle...” we had this discussion Dave...you got lucky on that one! 😂
😂 ... a theoretical right angle ;-)
Yeah smaller surface area roof always gets shingles through the valley first
Thanks for the info, William!
Why did you not just use quality chewing gum?
9:14 😅😅so cute😅
Did it leak??
Nope, Luis. No leaks ... yet ;-)
The shingle from the cricket should go cross first or am I wrong?
@@wilbersandoval9682 That’s typically how it’s done, but building code is to follow the shingle manufacturer’s instructions, and mine didn’t have a preference. That said, if I were to do it again I would shingle the cricket first. I do think it’s probably a little less likely to leak and would look better. But supposedly as long as you follow the valley instructions in the shingle installation guide, it shouldn’t week either way.
eres chingon
Looks like something we laugh at before fixing.
-Cricket way to big
- cut valley ran backwards
- nails in valley
- shingles don’t cross valley center line far enough
-Courses not ran straight
- valley cut is janky
-didn’t cut in step flashing
-didn’t tie felt into roof properly
Could probably list more but stopped watching lol
Thanks for the input, Jimmy.
Hey Jimmy he saved alot of money and showed it worked, I am a roofer too
Shingled the valley wrong lol shouldnt have seams or nails in there
Hack job😂
Had me till 12 mins.
Than the crazy hack job stuff happened
Gonna leak in a year.
Hire a pro that's why they are called pros.
Thanks for the input, Bren.
Nice tips but too long , cut out all the BS
This video gave me a headache. If you don't know if it's being done properly, maybe you shouldn't be doing the work? Just a thought
If I had the money to pay someone else to do it, I probably would. Thanks for the comment Jordan.
Easy and cheap that's what every customer wants to hear. Easy cheap leaks, Why did the plywood not meet at any of the edges. There are better ways to do this, so why not do it that way. So here you self incriminate the whole job being a mishap and you still leave the video up after a few years, why?
It doesn’t leak. Thanks for your input, Joseph.
