Fair play for even being on a roof , bit off advice use black bitumen along with the strap it stops the slate rattling in the wind, & if possible use lead strap not tin , as leads folds easier into place

Omfg! Where did you get that tool? My father had one made by a welder probably 70 years ago and I’ve never seen one since. I used it quite a bit for wooden shingles asphalt shingles. It works wonders for shingle replacements. And that’s a neat trick with the bracket to hold the last tile. With asphalt shingles I’ve bent to top one just enough to hammer in a nail on the lower one and still be covered by the top one. I suppose wood shingles could be done the same with a similar bracket.

@craigchamberlain Ай бұрын

Nicely done! Quick question though - as a DIYer who always likes to learn, why did she bend the tingle back on itself? I recently replaced a slipped slate on our roof and used a copper tingle to retain the replaced slate but I didn't bend it back over itself. Is this just to make it less visible or does it improve retention or something? Thanks.

@markthompson4905 21 күн бұрын

Catches less debris and ice,which has the propensity to bend open after some years, although I rarely do that. I always put a piece of ice and snow over pulled nail holes in tarpaper . And use copper nails for the expansion and contractions copper bends to the movement. Steel galvanized doesn't give and will crack the slate.

@george8873 Ай бұрын

Only thing I seen wrong was she wasn't wearing safety glasses when punching the holes in the slate. The slate shards could really slice up your eye if you got some in your eye since it's sharp.

Soft metal tingles are for bodgers, if you’re going that route, use a proper slate hook. If a slate falls from above, that is getting bent down and releasing your ‘so called’ fix.

It is important to note for the public record that your comment, @Thorsten-Schubert, should be acknowledged solely to safeguard consumers from any potential misinformation and ignorance those like you spread about traditional roofing, to which I will reply to now as a traditional artisan and teacher including slate roofing methods. To begin with, @Thorsten-Schubert, it is evident that you lack any experience or comprehension of "real roofing," particularly in relation to traditional roofing practices and the tools that are utilized in this field. Additionally, deeming a video as unreliable without confirming your credentials and expertise is insincere and demonstrates a lack of courage. You failed to outline what you think the appropriate tools are, or suggest any method changes, leaving the average viewer with no viable alternative to the content of this video. It is evident that you do not possess any solutions, nor do you wish to be constrained by those of us who are experienced and actually are, "real roofers."
