only one thing to all guys that are going to do this for the first time, don't take this position to install and walk on the roof, this is just an example, the right way is facing the bottom line of shingles, is easier to move, faster and less dangerous.

Both very valid points I considered building my shed. Putting the door on the “high wall” seemed wasted space or volume rather in terms of height and storage because my doorway is 6ft wide. On the other hand putting my doorway in the “short wall” I don’t think it would look well and constant runoff over my doorway area is not ideal. The solution is a loft above the doorway.

It took me about 4.5 hours to do all this - as I hate heights any height and this was my first time. Use the plastic felt nails as shown they are only about $6 per 300 or so. I didn't measure the 12" up along the edges for shingle adjustment, but eyeballed it and it was near perfect at the top. I also used 1/2 plywood - you will need 2 pcs of it or osb. I used owens corning Driftwood Dimensional/architectural shingles I bought at L's. It has a different adhesive system (tar strip) but it works fine. I made starter strips from them. The offset is 6.25 inches for the dimensional stuff I used. I purchased rolled 8" aluminum flashing $6 for the ridge but because it is dimensional shingles it is a little awkward. The hardest part of this whole job is trimming the shingles on the rake. Near disaster for me as it is very tough to do and you can ruin your work quick. I actually used a cordless dewalt trim saw to trim a little and it worked ok but you need to wear goggles, long sleeves and be above the saw when cutting because it is throwing debris everywhere and it stings when it hits.
@cyance870310 жыл бұрын
When working with flashing I would roll out about 8.5 feet on a work bench on the edge to use it as a brake. Fasten the ends on the top of the bench and the bend the flashing over the side. It will be 90 degrees but you can adjust on the ridge.
@ivansoto894910 ай бұрын
When you say 2 pieces you mean 2 layers of 1/2 inch? I currently have 1/2 osb on my roof (1 layer). I am ready to install the shingles bit I am a little confused. Are the nails going to go through and will see them in the inside? It is my first time building a roof and I don’t want to mess it up.

Is the mastic for top ridge silicone or tar based? It sounds like silicone won’t stick very well but that may not matter since it is nailed down. Apparently tar sticks well but can soften the shingle if too much applied. On balance I’m inclined to use silicone. Thanks

I've heard different opinions on whether or not to put the nails just below the tar strip or right into it. I've been told to put it into the tar strip as the tar helps hold the nails in place and stop them from popping out over time. What would be the disadvantages of driving them into the tar strip?
@pguiver9 жыл бұрын
It's also good to mention that 3 tab shingles have notches cut in them on both sides, 6 inches in from the edge, so that you can pull up the notch and butt the shingle up to that notch, rather than having to measure to get the pattern aligned properly. Also, running starter shingles up the rakes is a good idea for extra protection against wind lifting shingles from the sides, and it helps to give a straight clean line seen from the ground.
@icreatablestv9 жыл бұрын
pguiver I am not sure as to why but the instructions on the package say to put them just above the tar strip. Every nail goes through several layers of shingles which are made of tar and help hold the nails in.

I am going to reshingle the addition and replace the plywood soffit. I am wondering if it is necessary to vent a sloped roof like this. My addition has no venting and I am thinking that is what made the sofft rot away as it should have never rotted away being under the overhang. Any thoughts?

When a roof is vented it makes the roofing last longer. Rotting typically comes from wet dry cycles. But venting will keep the interior from collecting moisture so it should help.

A tip for weekend builders who have never roofed and likely spend too much time behind a desk all week (like me). Remember to peel off the cellophane 'tape' off the tar strip before laying the shingle down. Yes I screwed this up on the very first shed roof I did years ago because it was hot out it was not immediately apparent that there was even tape there. At the time I didn't know enough to think that the tar was there to glue things together. Yeah I know dumb but live and learn. Thanks for the great video!
@Jacno777 жыл бұрын
Hey you didn't screw up the roof. Thats a common misconception beginner roofers have, that plastic thing in the back is for shingles not to get stuck together during the shipping phase. So when you unwrap the package, it doesn't stick. Which is why you'll see the next time you open another bundle, that the tar line is directly under that plastic cellophane tape your talking about. Oh and be sure to always nail your nails directly on the "thick" part of the nailing line on laminate shingles.

Not trying to be critical, but it’s crazy how dozens of freestanding shed roof videos with millions of views (How To’s) are incorrectly titled a “Lean To”. It’s not just my personal opinion. 33+ years as a second generation GC, 12 years on the Code Enforcement Board, review of hundreds of plans from dozens of Architects / Engineers and multiple definitions / illustrations online say so. In the U.S. and most English speaking countries, it’s only correctly called a “Lean To” if it “leans against”, i.e. “To / Towards” and or attaches to an existing wall or structure, by utilizing said support for load bearing, typically on the high side of the slope. I’ve personally never seen a “lean down to” reverse pitch roof, but there’s probably some out there. 😂 If you build a new 2-3, or 4 sided, freestanding structure and the roof rafters (load bearing points) sit on top of the walls / beams on each side, it’s called a “shed roof”, or a “mono pitch”, or “single slope” roof, etc. JS
