HOW TO | DO A DOUBLE VALLEY (part 1)

[@neilbhagwandeen4670]

Hi all. Love these videos! I am from a country where metal roofing sheets are popular. Watching you guys shingle roofs, I must say it's a skill and an art. Seeing you tackle that valley with shingles... damn I would not have known what to do. I mean I think roofers in my country take that for granted as with metal roof you install your valley flashings lay your roof sheets and call it a day.

[@jpeknowbody3649]

This is 50/50 on the right way, unusual circumstances for sure.During a major rain storm I think Id rather have it the way baby cub did it . But then again the steeper slope will shed faster but less flow. I guess you called it right once you take in the snow and ice situation.Good job

[@borys444]

Gave u a like cause I’m happy to c boy cub back and it’s always good to support someone like urself. Peace brother!!!

I wish I worked with you! You seem like an awesome teacher/coworker. Anyhow at 32 years I’m thinkin to leave my contractor company and start my own soon. You inspire me to want to build my own company. Thanks for all your videos

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Awesome! Get it bro!

[@zeliop6024]

This was a great video. I wasnt even working on any roofing or shingles, but i was curious on how those valleys were all shingled up together.. Thanks for some good laughs as well.

You got the like and subscribe on this one because i actually did this today, and now have to tear off and re-do... didnt see this video untill it was too late.

[@hondaman3317]

Always cut the steeper pitch. Fly the smaller pitch by. Gravity is easy to watch work, roofing is about gravity. Seeing you fix it speaks volumes. Most don’t..... but then I wouldn’t have a job😂

[@devinmanns9561]

I live in northern Utah we get a lot of snow, i color match tpo membrane and do 3 feet up with it from the edge and tie the shingles in, its a nice detail in area like that were snow and ice will build up

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

damn tpo? thats crazy

[@Remodeling101]

Color match? I thought it only came in white, black, and grey, and I cant see white matching very often. Black on red, black on green, black on tan.. lol .. Good idea tho.. hard to see those ares anyway. So if you did commercial roofing, using scrap would save some $ if you just went with one run, no seam...

[@larrycrookshanks9091]

You're installing shingles in a pocket in Utah where u get deep snow and ice. Amazing. Why not install a layer of base Self adhered and a layer of cap sheet. Solid sheets beat shingles in low slope area.

[@JTREJO22]

That is exactly what I was going to suggest. We always do SA BASE and Cap. In we are in West Texas. No issues after we got a foot of snow this past month. Can’t say much about the other companies here. Nobody here even tears off felt or installs ice and water.

[@Sourkeyz]

Oh man! when buddy asked for a line on his rack and then started laughing about how it could be added in as a video oufff.... I felt those last 2 nails go in before the cut

[@stixprogaming2718]

Next time you do those, ice and shield everything, in that area, instead of a row of paper on those dormers I would of ice and shielded it, lots of snow sits there, also I'd keep those nails with the plastic thing on them away 6 too 8 inches, when I shingle these i build it up pyramid style, when you step up in the middle and add on too both side, glad too see it is changed well you had the chance and before it leaked, it could of caused big headaches down the road, lots of people would of said fuck it, looks good from my house.

[@avalianteffort40]

How do you align your stagger between the bottom of the valley and the top on the 4/12 pitch? The top is already shingled, so how do you know how much to offset on the bottom to get the stagger to work out?

[@woodpeckerroofing93]

Tape measure if you're smart, a bunch of scraps of shingles if you're not. Nail the tuck afterward, not naming any names JB. LMAO, inside private now public joke, he won't see. Steeper the better;)

[@ronaldoleksy8264]

Hey so what are your thoughts on running say like 3 rows up in a weaved pattern at the overhang then cut the valley in after the first 3 rows

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

should work just fine here! but on a normal valley i wouldn't recommend it. it would look weird. valleys look best when the cute line comes all the way down to the first shingle.

[@pedrogomez9303]

You right👏👏

[@Warren3carpentry]

Good point! Nice how to vid!

[@mattb4885]

In boycubs defense. I would’ve laid the roof the way he did.. though the dormers (appear) to be steeper than the main roof, sq footage is significantly less, and that spot between is going to bottleneck either way with snow.. my train of thought but if someone can give me good stats/figures to go off of I’ll forfeit haha.

[@UndisputedRoofer]

Boy cub did it right.

[@mattb4885]

And when I cali cut valleys, I always run a secondary bead of tar underneath the course of shingles that I lay parallel to the valley so even if that course doesn't seal 100%, I have a second backup against the moisture. Nowhere near as experienced as many of you guys but I've never been called back to any roof that I've laid or help lay.

[@Ermagawd]

Just had the same issue at my job with a guy who can’t be told he did something wrong. I just started ripping it off and re did it

[@raybrensike42]

So will a marble be running faster at 20' going down a 4/12, than it would be going at 6' down a 6/12? I'm thinking maybe Boycub got it right. Or, if you were in a bicycle race, do you think that you could get going faster down a 6/12 that was 6' long than someone else who was coasting down a 4/12 for 20 feet? I'll bet kids at a skateboard park would be good at answering something like this. Or, if you were on a hill that was steep, but it was only 3' high, and someone else was on a hill that was 6' high, and those hills were on a perfectly flat valley, and you both let balls roll down at the same time, which ball would go the furthest? Would it even depend on the slope? Would slope even matter? One would get to the flat valley quicker, but which ball would go farther before it stopped?

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

It's not always speed or volume. Pitch plays a huge part in how the water will behave at the bottom and snow especially. The snow will melt n freeze multiple times and it will be way easier for it to find its way in opposite of how I did it
