My roofer said they can use 3 tab shingles to make the ridge, since I will be using 30 year shingles I don’t feel comfortable using 3 tab shingles for my ridge, he mentioned that the ridge cap shingles are expensive and that it takes up a lot of bundles, that’s the reason he suggested using the 3 tab shingles for ridge, is this true?
@RoofRepairSpecialist4 күн бұрын
They are more expensive then 3tab, but I still recommend using them, you’ll probably spend a few hundred dollars but will have a roof that looks better and lasts longer

I 100% agree with the results but disagree with the Superiority of the OSB to be used for roof deck! Here in the Philippines, the primary feature that we need is the Pull-Out rating because we have many Strong Typhoons that can fly our roofs. Second, we can just buy a very cheap "WATERPROOF" Underlayment in between a standing seam roof and a 3/4 Marine plywood.

You are supposed to use the valley metal that has a hem on it to keep the water in the valley and also you’re nailing through the valley metal so what good does that do all you’re doing to create a hole in your valley metal

This is the way to do comp valleys because they look very professional. When installing the full shingle up the valley set those to a semi dry chalk line. Blue works best. People can see up the valleys from the ground so you dont want wavy valleys.

@@RoofRepairSpecialist no I mean how many rows do you step pattern before you do the whole sheet again I've seen other people do five rows Courses & on the sixth row (course) they start over again but in your video you only have 4 rows (courses), So do you start over on the 5 row? The Owens Corning instructions for this type of roof said go 6 courses then on 7th is when you repeat.

Your videos have helped me so much! Thanks a ton! Fortunately I had a hipped roof but i was curious what doing a valley would look like. Seems like open valley is more diy friendly. Cut valley seemed a little less diy friendly but very doable. Woven seems like it would be easy to make it look messy for someone just learning this.

Similar idea used for long(er)-term drywall mud storage--level the surface to reduce peaks and valleys/surface area. But you want to clean off the sides of the bucket with a knife, then brush and water. And make sure it stays cool. It'll last months in a cool environment. For short-term storage (1-5 days or so), leave 1/2" of water on top of the mud. Then, dump it off when you open it.

In zones that get freezing weather like he says leave a slight gap, you are supposed to leave a minimum ¼ inch gap from the fascia and drip edge. This prevents surface tension ice from traveling under to the decking.

You got the 9"&18" right but your 18" Nail pattern is wrong. Instead of every 18" putting 2 nails even with each other your supposed to stager them so you gave a nail every 9" alternating sides.

This was an incredibly informative video, thank you. Not sure if you are still responding to questions, but here's mine. For the saddle flashing, you cut it flush with the skylight box, leaving a small lip that extends past each end. Why do you cut out the excess piece instead of wrapping it around the skylight box? And if the purpose of the lip is to direct water away from the corner, why not have an angled lip instead of a uniform lip of what appears to be about 1 inch? Thank you.
@RoofRepairSpecialist22 күн бұрын
Wrapping it would work, I like the idea, definitely doesn’t hurt. If I understand the second part correctly I think leaving it straight is better as you’re not trying to direct the water necessarily, you’re trying to keep the water away from the corner.

I'm not a fan of butting shingles end-to-end with no overlap and installing them perpendicular to the valley just to get a straight line. Sometimes called a California valley, and also used within other valley installation methods. Here in the north, water can get under the shingle, freeze, expand, and move or crack that shingle and the adjacent shingle. The object should always be to divert all water off the slope as quickly as possible, and not retain water or rely on the ice & water shield or the flashing.
