How to slate a roof like a COWBOY BUILDER - the poor workmanship is comical.

[@RobMa]

I've been roofing for 44 years now enjoyed every minute, now u get these people who buy a van ,ladder and catwalk and say there roofers charging extortionate prices only to be ripped off then jobs need redone, plenty round my way.

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Pleased you enjoyed the video , you seen worse then this or this top it all ?

[@RobMa]

This tops it all, looked at a sheeting job and someone shoved chewing gum in to seal hole.

[@nonsheep5823]

Wow iv been roofing for 22 yrs iv seen some serious shit in my time 😳 this is mental 😳 mind blowing 🤯 copper nails / battern gauge / headlap im speaking a foreign language

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

All we can do is chuckle about it these days though.

[@MrRambo438]

oh my god, where did you find these guys ?

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Sad thing is they were recommended to me. We look at it and chuckle nw though ! 😆

[@findleyroofing]

Incredible. Utter utter horrific dog shit. Homeowners want applauded for clearly doing their research on the culprit company. Reviews are there for a reason. Trust nobody, believe nobody, part with cash pound notes at your peril. Do your research or get bitten. And of course, Pay cheap pay twice. Great vid lads

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Massive shame isnt it that someone would try and pass it off as work. Massive shame but we move on to the next.

[@walesroofingservices4572]

Never seen out like that wow It’s easier to do it propley than it is to get it to that stage fuck me drunk 😮

[@billybulmer7386]

Whereabouts are you based? Cool video

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Sorry billy just seen this. Up in East Yorkshire .

[@petetheroofer3321]

Builders don’t want to pay the money roofers charge to do it properly and think “can’t be that hard” then quickly find that it is but still crack on

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Shouldn’t charge people for work that you cannot do, simple as. Bet you have seen some shockers Pete.

[@petetheroofer3321]

@@houserenovations-tlom7317 Certainly have, to be honest most of the time it’s the client that has went for the cheapest quote, which isn’t a bad thing everyone does it but you need to do you’re due diligence and find out exactly who you’re dealing with previous jobs etc makes a big difference and if the contractor isn’t willing to show any of their previous work then avoid and move on never easy but always worth the extra time and effort to avoid paying again to have it set straight

[@leo-nj7cc]

I think that the only way this is going to stop is if roofing needs signing off im speechless

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Bad isn’t it , just bad. We can all laugh at it nw. What else they done to others since that’s the thing.

[@sam.p12345]

I thought I’d done quite a good job on that roof.

[@tonyford5326]

40 years slating tiling and flat roofing, that’s the worst example I’ve ever seen unfortunately we are seeing this more and more I’d say in the last 10 years at least 50 percent of the Roos I’ve done are new installations that have been done by cowboys and the only way forward is to strip and start again

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

Shame isn’t it Tony , but we crack on.

[@TheProdigy1982]

🤔 Didn’t they have any galvanize clouts nails?🥴

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

No idea my friend no idea what they were doing . I think it was “fined anything on the floor and slap it on”.

[@TheProdigy1982]

[@rileybuchan9813]

Crazy

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

It really is !

[@jake_of_the_jungle9840]

I hate slate roofs when people use battens. It just seems cheesy, especially when you’re doing a whole new roof from scratch it would be much nicer to use inch boards

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

You a roofer @jake_of_the_jungle9840 ?

[@Keeko251]

That’s the English way in Scotland slate go flat onto the Sarkin board and felt

[@dugegg]

Slaring straight onto boards is horribly uncomfortable. Much better battened

[@johnmorgan6254]

Even the expensive felt is ruined now screws too long

[@houserenovations-tlom7317]

It all got taken off and we went again !
