Dan Borrello I've heard people tell stories about that happening and how cops show up cuz the homeowners got scared and I always laugh 😂😂😂 it's bad but still funny 😂😂😂
This is why they put the contractor sign in the front yard. I guess you could always move the sign if you knew which day the crew was going to show up. My neighbor had a sign in his yard for 2+ months before the roof was actually done. It was all done in a single day.
Or on a house where all the shingles are nailed properly in the nail line, he isn't pulling any of the nails out, and probably won't even beat them down before re-roofing it, sad...really sad
Every hoise is diferent you need to use diferent skills.. if is old whit 1x10 by x6 x4 If is 2layers Yf is plywood.. The way you think is fster try never think the way you do is faster then other ones ..for me everyone needs to doo the way they feel is faster 👌💪💪💪😎
No ice and water on the bottom of roof deck, I'll bet those were nailed high for how easy they come off, and quite possibly could be hail damaged. Or poor installation.
He'd NEVER do that on a Florida roof....tin caps and nailed every 6" on seams and 8" in the field....that roof must have been put on with elmers glue😒😒😒
I do roofing tear off and i have to say this is great work , will def try this on the next tear off , ive only been doing it for 1 month but hope to learn and improve
this worked because the pitch was steep enough for the shingles to slide, and there were no gutters. but the job is still far from done. nails now need pulled or pounded and the ground still needs cleaned.
breathe and squeeze man every comment I see about nails lol the shingles are coming up so easy cause they are stapled not nailed that roof never had one nail in a shingle
I did rolfing for a little while, the way we teared off was from left to right or right to left instead of up to down. If you do it the other way you can get a roll going to where you can just throw it in the dumpster instead of throwing it all down and picking it all up afterwards
Roof looked like it was in decent shape, zero evidence of water damage under any of the tear off. I guess this is a roofing job for people for whom money is no object I guess. "Honey how old is the roof?" "I think it's about 10 years old..." "Ah shieet...better replace it before it leaks on us..."
Or they are just doing one part of that side and instead of havin half of them looking brand new on that one side do the whole side we don't know what the job was so we can't make fun unless we knew if they were just being rich fucks replacing it for no reason
Serious question. Should they of just shingled over that if there was no water damage? Or just not replaced it all together? I have 2 houses that the roofs are 10 years old plus. They look fine and are dry.
I tried this today on a one layer with staples. Have to say I was completely impressed because it prepped itself. I had to pull four staples out of a 5 square roof
good for steeper pitches however on an 8-12 and below it's often times easiest to separate the tar line on every sixth row and then lift six or seven shingles rather than take four or five Strokes with each shovel only to tear everything into smaller pieces which makes it difficult for the ground guys
When shingles are stapeld down, they come off like sheets. Roofers like using stapels to fasten so they don't have to load the gun as much, time is money. The problem is, the shingled roof does not hold up through the test of time and elements of weather. Watch out for crappy work, or mass subdivisions. Somewhere a contractor is cutting corners.
Seems to be working good for this particular house but yeah he's getting it off for sure! But this also looks like a guy getting paid by the square that's motivated to get something done not an hourly guy that calls himself a roofer.
Try working like that in New Zealand OSH would shut the job down and give you a big fine. No safety gear on, no fall protection gear. We have to jump through heaps of hoops just to work onsite.
i was going to say the same thing. he'd be better starting at the bottom and just pulling it up in sheets no pitch fork required. putch forks are the least efficient tool to use.
I too was wondering if there was something we were not seeing.. that there sheathing looks damn good to me. On top of the factor roof really doesn't look that old but who's to say although, again like I said that sheathing looks immaculate!
You can tear off dummy shingles by hand. Show a roof with 2 layers of shake and 2 layers of 3 tabs and 1 layer of asphalt. And do it quick. Now that woulf amaze anyone.
Been roofing 22 years an this is how you mess up the gutters and make a big mess on the ground .it's the hack way.dont do this the shingles shouldn't go to ground ,strate to dump truck or dumpster cuts time in half
Easy for a one layer peel. Try that on 2 to 3 layers. I see guys that get paid by the square tear off the roof and still have to prep. I tear it down one time nails and all, because I don't like to do double work. If your hrly maybe. But piece rate doesn't pay twice on tear-off
Read the description....he's just tearing off....it's quick. Quit looking deeper and trying to look and sound like you're the only ones that know how to roof.
Casey Kelley boy shut the fuck up boy. You ain't even got no business on this video after them exterior curtains you left on that mans shed......... you didn't think I'd find you did ya
I'm a journeyman for the united union of roofers waterproofers and allied workers local 112 and that's not how it works in real life that looked like a new roof and it was only one layer not to mention code is 5 nails per shingle so now go back and pull all them nails or bang em flat if you're a scab
@@coreycook571 don't talk about scabs and rats like that. Your just mad that over half of them could do a roof better than you on less equipment. Your jealous of their skill. And your jealous about their money. You know they're good hard working honest people you asshole. Fuck you I've seen local 30 and they're corrupt and they suck. I support non Union and always will.
its a put together on the job that morning video shoot . I can dig it.you fat foks make your own work video for the foks to pick apart. come the fok on@@isaiahthesmoker7333
That's really cool....until you have to go back through and tear every nail out....you know what I've found d in my years of roofing? A gold colored nailed blends in with plywood or obs cdx... then you have what we in the business call stingers that pop a hole in your waterproof barrier aka your felt or synthetic. Nobody shows that part....probably cause it would take the wind out of their proverbial sail or because then their customers would know.....
Looks new, I don't know why it's being torn off, But some people claim Hail Damage to get the insurance to pay for it even though there isn't any, but just to get a new roof. Not good.
I'm going to add some fuel this fire ....yes there is felt if you can't see it i don't know why. Second starting at about 1:06 you can catch what looks like nail holes in the shingle. With that said it could be from his bars as he's tearing off. We that are experienced know that it's coming off easy because of poorly placed or high nails or they are staples.
I never worked at the south but its it's amazing you guys doesn't have to deal whit the ice and water, well well every crews that I know tear off like that
dude was using pitch forks instead of a roofing shovel. that plywood is gonna be nail heaven. it's take him half the day to get all the balls he's missing.
All these people commenting act like they know what they are talking about but have no clue lol he is tearing off so easy because the shingles are stapled on plywood people saying how he's missing the nails there was never a nail in one of them shingles just use a hook blade and pull the staples right out and they are dimensional not 3and1 and the roof is not new that roof is 13+ yrs old
Everyone saying roof didn’t need to be replaced lol it didn’t. Even have felt....... that roof was a disaster waiting to happen it needed to be done properly. You need to lay a foundation with rolls of felt before you put shingles on !
Would like to see you try this crap on a 1x6 roof deck! With staples,You would’nt even last a few minutes Every tear off on plywood is a piece of cake!
That roof was put in with staples, plus shingles are in good condition....roof not flat so they fall off eazy,no gutters.....single layer... This wont happen on every roof,SO! this is not exactly how 1 would tear off EVERY roof......but good job.
I would do this infront of my coworkers and they would laugh at me and say I was tearing off wrong little did they know I was tearing off the 30 along with the shingle. Work hard and smart is what I go by
No sir!! Cant pull that stunt here in south florida😂!!! You will quickly arrive at a stopping point every 3 and a half seconds😂😂😂😂! #30 is tin capped with 1 1/4 ring shank nails 6" on center at the laps and 9-12" on center double lines through the middle. And shingles get 6 nails. Ring shank.
Thats how you do it. Doing the work of three men...That's how you tear off a roof with 4 nails. All architectural shingles require more then 4 nails for any installation.
This is real men work. Doing anything on a roof is hard physical labor.
Im full blooded mexican and i am impressed by this technique
there is no full blooded Mexican now Mestizo yes.
Nice job homie, wrong house
Geoffrey Freeland 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmfao.. Y'all laugh. Ive seen it done. Wrong house
Dan Borrello I've heard people tell stories about that happening and how cops show up cuz the homeowners got scared and I always laugh 😂😂😂 it's bad but still funny 😂😂😂

Right LOL it happens
I'd love to see him do that on an old house where the roof boards are 1x10s
Or on a house where all the shingles are nailed properly in the nail line, he isn't pulling any of the nails out, and probably won't even beat them down before re-roofing it, sad...really sad
Every hoise is diferent you need to use diferent skills.. if is old whit 1x10 by x6 x4
If is 2layers
Yf is plywood..
The way you think is fster try never think the way you do is faster then other ones ..for me everyone needs to doo the way they feel is faster 👌💪💪💪😎
@@zamircamargo1047 so if you think it's faster than do it? That's kinda dumb. I use methods that ARE faster. But hey that's just me
@@larrykuhn9650 that’s a stupid thing to assume😂
Never happen on plank board or with more then one layer . I'm not impressed.
Damn get this boy an osha approved safety beer!
That how you tear off a roof that probably didn't need to be replaced.
Curtis McOwen perfectly put.
No ice and water on the bottom of roof deck, I'll bet those were nailed high for how easy they come off, and quite possibly could be hail damaged. Or poor installation.
Exctally
Facts
And the shingler will be happy with all the nails he's left I there
So you increase the chance of falling all while exhausting yourself? Brilliant!
He'd NEVER do that on a Florida roof....tin caps and nailed every 6" on seams and 8" in the field....that roof must have been put on with elmers glue😒😒😒
It's not Florida apparently. He has a hoodie on so there you go.
Prolly why its getting replaced
give the some credit man. bet some of you couldn't get up the ladder with a bundle. I can dig it
For real every one is hating
I do roofing tear off and i have to say this is great work , will def try this on the next tear off , ive only been doing it for 1 month but hope to learn and improve

breathe and squeeze man every comment I see about nails lol the shingles are coming up so easy cause they are stapled not nailed that roof never had one nail in a shingle
breathe and squeeze i hate groynd cleaning shingles someone please agree its the worst besides pitch rips
The sun also didn't melt the shingles glue or felt paper.
Thats how you fall off a roof.
I did rolfing for a little while, the way we teared off was from left to right or right to left instead of up to down. If you do it the other way you can get a roll going to where you can just throw it in the dumpster instead of throwing it all down and picking it all up afterwards

Douglas Quaid The old wife picked the color of those shingles.....New wife wants Riviera Red!
Sounds about right.
Probably hail damage.
Or they are just doing one part of that side and instead of havin half of them looking brand new on that one side do the whole side we don't know what the job was so we can't make fun unless we knew if they were just being rich fucks replacing it for no reason
Serious question. Should they of just shingled over that if there was no water damage? Or just not replaced it all together? I have 2 houses that the roofs are 10 years old plus. They look fine and are dry.
Try that on a 3 layer plus cedar lmao
Steven Rohauer
With 4 feet of fire/ice and tar.
It will also work on that. you just have to stick the forks under neath the cedar shingles same process as this.
Steven Rohauer right
daniel sanchezaldana you WILL NOT work it that fast and for duration of tear off on 3layer w cedar.no.
Chris Brown def not as fast but same process can be done
I tried this today on a one layer with staples. Have to say I was completely impressed because it prepped itself. I had to pull four staples out of a 5 square roof
That really seems like a very intense cardio/core workout.
who's doing the job?leave the man alone.
Save those shingles...... they look a lot better than the ones on my house lol
Scott Kneeland funny I roof for kneeland brothers where I live
good for steeper pitches however on an 8-12 and below it's often times easiest to separate the tar line on every sixth row and then lift six or seven shingles rather than take four or five Strokes with each shovel only to tear everything into smaller pieces which makes it difficult for the ground guys

I see the Aspen roofing sign in the front yard. Crooked storm chasers!!!
Seems to be working good for this particular house but yeah he's getting it off for sure! But this also looks like a guy getting paid by the square that's motivated to get something done not an hourly guy that calls himself a roofer.
mesa Laney his is a Mexican roofer..
Looks like brand new. The old 3 tab shit wont ever be this easy lol. Least you can spend all your time de nailing now!
Try working like that in New Zealand OSH would shut the job down and give you a big fine. No safety gear on, no fall protection gear. We have to jump through heaps of hoops just to work onsite.
He's definitely killin it, but pitch forks ALWAYS leave all the nails still in the roof, that's why I don't let my guys use em
All the time you saved youll now spend on denailing.
john hartsock lmao no shit do that on a 3 layer let's see the results lol
i was going to say the same thing. he'd be better starting at the bottom and just pulling it up in sheets no pitch fork required. putch forks are the least efficient tool to use.
john hartsock not that hard with a crow bar
Yea thats handling it twice if u ask me why not tear it off and pull the nails in one trip
I too was wondering if there was something we were not seeing.. that there sheathing looks damn good to me. On top of the factor roof really doesn't look that old but who's to say although, again like I said that sheathing looks immaculate!
Shingles looked like they had some life left in em lol. Nicely done none the less
That shit looked in real good shape to me! Fuck it keep at it.

We deal with HEAT!
Great worker. Harness please. God bless u
Much respect did that one summer fell through some bad wood....
We tear off slower and pull all nails on the way down. Unless we RIP the shingles up in big sections and then pull all nails after tear off.
I hate roofing tried when I was a young man. I went back to the oilfield work 💪
The home owner probably didn't like the job so they were like fuck it .
That stuff looks new...someone messed up
They are most likely building an addition onto the house
dude was using pitch forks instead of a roofing shovel. that plywood is gonna be nail heaven. it's take him half the day to get all the balls he's missing.
nails he's missing not balls. I swear my phone loves balls
Someone call OSHA. Lol. No rope or harness. Haha!
Anthony Fyers SCAB!!!
OSHA would of be happy to see them hahahaha
Not a fuck was given.
yea you will ha. should be proud of yourself
I cAlled ICE
Nice Effort! 6 in one hand and half dozen in the other as far as pitch fork versus shovels and time is concerned but great effort.
All these people commenting act like they know what they are talking about but have no clue lol he is tearing off so easy because the shingles are stapled on plywood people saying how he's missing the nails there was never a nail in one of them shingles just use a hook blade and pull the staples right out and they are dimensional not 3and1 and the roof is not new that roof is 13+ yrs old

Cool vid. Now he just needs a safety harness.
Cool !!!!Great job brot 👍
My back hurts just watching this
Most likely the homeowner is having an addition built onto the house , that seems to be the only reasonable explanation.
Shingles probably have 3 nails in them lol I would like to see you try that in San Bernardino CA where shingles have over 6-8 nails in them #showoff
Perfectly good shingles
Now someone's got to clean up the yard
Good use of 2 forks on OSB. That wouldn’t work on an old 1x deck
is way easier remove shingles from 7/16" OSB sheathing than 1/2" , 5/8" plywood or 3/4" planks
Im curious how many nails were in each shingle?
No sir!! Cant pull that stunt here in south florida😂!!! You will quickly arrive at a stopping point every 3 and a half seconds😂😂😂😂! #30 is tin capped with 1 1/4 ring shank nails 6" on center at the laps and 9-12" on center double lines through the middle. And shingles get 6 nails. Ring shank.
Have you guys ever heard of roofing buggies made by equipter? Makes tear off much cleaner and faster.
Four nailed no problem
Thats how you do it. Doing the work of three men...That's how you tear off a roof with 4 nails. All architectural shingles require more then 4 nails for any installation.
in the netherlands we use stone tiles as roofing material.
Also it’s a wicked way to fuck up the trough
and after dis video he went home for da day 😂😂😂
How do you collect all the nails so they're not spread around the yard, bushed, and walks?
Yeah have fun with that clean up
I fucking wish I could tear this way
Wow! I use to think I was fast. That is incredible
Actually a more effective way is starting at the top and going from side to side is way better.
I once tore a roof that had 4+ layers of shingles (yes I’m not bullshitting) and took me 3 days lol
You are taking off a perfectly good roof. Single layer. Do it with 3 layers. But the guy looks like a hard worker.
😂 he's busting ass but you can tell he's winded before he can even get the 1 side done.Cant do that all day
Those shingles look like the got another 5-7 years left on tbem
The roof looks fine lol
Not in Florida. The building codes here would make him look like a fool with those pitch forks.
There's codes on how to tear a roof off?
Great job hustling out the strip process
That a how you destroy gutters windows and siding you ID 10 t's... Do they have a video showing how long it takes cleaning up tearing off like that??
So just curious what was wrong with the roof. Because those shingles looked really good
Jose Torres insurance claim
@@rambo3971 gotchya.
Yall funny! 😂
Man I've done tear off once before and it was nothing like this just about every single shingle was hard and fighting to come up
That roof didn't need replaced. Insurance job...

Yea that was one good roof. Unfortunately it doesn't happen this way all the time lol

Let me guess, Brand new roof nailed wrong, shingles don't peal like that unless nails are set to deep and or above nail line
