Roof wind damaged missing shingles - shingle repair uncut

[@jodyjohnsen]

I saved this video ages ago just in case. Just in case arrived. I rewatched this video, made a list, went to the building supply store and fixed my roof. I’m female, approaching retirement age, lifelong desk job - and I repaired my own roof for $108. (I already had the shingles.) I am eternally grateful.

[@tororoycorpuz5181]

Wow! Bless your hard-working soul!!

[@oscarramirez15060]

I do roofs all year long & can say this guy knows what he’s doing , judging by experience 👍🏽

[@mevinkoser8446]

I run service for a roofing company. Mostly commercial flat roofs but I get shingle repair regularly. I also can cosign this work. Personally I prefer rp400 to seal the shingles as it's an asphalt product. Also, I strongly recommend the pac tools roof snake instead of a flatbar.

[@williamervin4463]

Can you give an example or two of what a repair like this costs?

[@calvinreichelderfer7989]

Even your 2 year videos are good to watch. I always give you thumbs up. Big thumbs up for being a good guy.

[@craig2548]

Sorry to say my sister has no income. She is 61 & disabled and lives far away. She is selling off belongings to raise enough $ to buy supplies to repair the massive roof leaks. Your videos will help her a lot, Thank you for your videos!

[@davidthompson2211]

[@livingaboard]

She needs to sell her house. When you get to the point you can’t afford to do repairs and maintenance it’s all down hill from there and her house is going to fall into disrepair

[@BerthaNeal-wm4sm]

God bless you all

[@fortheearth]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. This was a big help.

[@andrewleiter6969]

I wish more of us contractors took as much pride as the ones out their that really do. Cutting corners is not just bad for business it's bad for the trade thank for doing good work bud

[@PRO4XKEV]

Excellent. Good thing in removing that ridiculous turbine vent.

[@RichMartegani]

Nice job brian, never been a fan of those smaller exhaust vents, always prefer ridgeventing

[@pennyuyitung4854]

Wood working tip - At 21:00. First cut should have been downwards, perpendicular to grain of wood. Eliminates the risk of splitting the wood along the grain leading to moments of "That should not have happened" situation. It probably would have come to you if the second cut also split. :)

[@GrandRoofingInc]

Thanks

[@NurseAcrobat]

It's nice to see that not all 10+ year old roofs automatically need full replacement if there is damage anywhere. I appreciated seeing the full process of taking out the old shingle, replacing boards as needed, putting in ice/water, new shingles, and caulking.

[@THEATREGOD3]

Yeah they don't need to but for companies to make their money and to pay for their licenses you absolutely have to pay for a new roof because their minimum amount that they can work for is 3 to 5 Grand here's another Secret some companies higher independent skilled installers I need my label themselves as construction companies what sound more like insurance companies to me when you talk to them the guys they hire are sub contractors

[@kathleenjames6071]

Thanks

[@JesseLawson-w8m]

Very professional done correct the first time

[@Ponlokk]

Very good Job , like it .

[@theresagraham9368]

Awesome thank you for sharing, As a female this will help me alot to learn about repair work since I can't trust the bids I am getting if I don't understand what they are talking about. You just don't know how much I appreciate your honesty. !!!

[@awac4577]

Wow. I needed to see this. I'm not a roofer but I'm gaining more confidence in tackling a roof repair. Thank you and great job teaching.

[@markmontagano]

Good Work! Maybe the not so good roofers will learn from your videos.

[@RobertGatlin-z9w]

You bring back alot of good memories Most dont even know how to use a pro tool,like we do!

[@jeffmallery4931]

Finally a real roofer, right nail bar, right hatchet, i turned off after seeing both cuz you obviously know what your doing

[@shmerd1]

This guy is good, and appreciate him sharing with others. Here's a tip he doesn't seem to know. Put your Sawzall blades in upside down. It makes it so the blade is much closer to the plain of the outside edge of the tool making plunge cuts much easier.

[@duanehouston7689]

Nice work…I thought you was just a smooth talking salesman..Ima stay tuned…wish you was in my area. I’m having this same type of problem.. Thanks again for the video.

[@bigsidable]

Love that hammer work. You make us proud to be American. I’ve been in many industries. And nothing can beat High Quality Work. As it’s said. SKILLED LABOR AINT CHEAP. BUT CHEAP LABOR AINT SKILLED. NICE JOB.

[@tammynicholas2966]

From CA winter socks definitely learn from great demonstration like the longer videos start to finish

[@anacaona1982]

Great Video. I learned so much. THANK YOU !

[@roadstar499]

that roof still seems very solid... i don't believe in redoing a roof unless its in bad shape or home owners have money to spare and just want a better roof that can handle the next 150 mph storm....

[@toneemh4651]

Your videos are really helpful guy

[@majedbalawy]

All my family love the video God bless you good job and good man

[@tc7518]

Love the hammer...and the attention to detail...and doing things right the first time so you do not get called back.

[@tortugajoe735]

Great video, I like the longer format showing the whole repair!

[@thientamminhkhoa1750]

I like the way you repaired the roofs very good job where you like Sir

[@kellywalker1732]

Thank you for your thorough video. I was able to get a good understanding of what it takes to do a complete repair and do it right. I can now ask my roofer some detailed questions about my much needed repair.

[@SamS-jh3uh]

I really get a lot out of the repair uncut videos. Very good. Thank you for taking the time to educate us. It is like I am on the roof with you. Thanks again.

[@chadrayburg3021]

What a great video for a novice. I’m no roofer so this video was tremendously helpful. I can’t thank you enough. I was able to do the repair myself and save over $700. Pittsburgh and Latrobe PA thank you very much.

[@cajun3197]

You’re damn good. Pretty therapeutic to watch and learn how to do quality work. Thanks for taking the time to explain as you go.

[@Eastahtata]

Nice to see the detailed videos! Thanks to you and other roofers here I was able to get through my first roof and not make the stupid mistakes that you see so commonly done. (Not that I didn't make any mistakes, I just fixed what I screwed up and made sure the essentials were done right)

[@CassandraDyer-h9c]

Watching from Ohio, I need to repair my roof in a small area. After watching your video I am confident I can do it!! Thanks soooo much. Your videos are fun and educational.

[@nicopolis7377]

Your first mistake was not taking off the crown / hip cap shingles and working down to roof edge . Also , a bucket to put pulled out nails and trash into . However , you did a great job with the reroof.

[@ElreyRayo]

Gracias from Texas 👍

[@flatlander2005]

Nicely done, Cheers!!!

[@HB-yq8gy]

The dude makes it look easy definitely a crafty roofer.

[@russemerson1358]

Great job. Thanks

[@Bdozal9390]

I learned a lot !!! Thanks for teaching!

[@edlopez5661]

That was very helpful! I already had an idea on how I was going to do my own repair but now I'm positive I am on the right track. Thanks

[@JoeChicago-c9g]

Thank

[@bibbidi_bobbidi_bacons]

Great job

[@GunClingingPalin]

Impressive skill saw handling brother

[@kellytils5967]

Perfect. As always.

[@davidav8orpflanz561]

Dependng on how much the damage cost to repair, verses making an insurance claim and paying the deductable ($500 - $1,000)- might be better just paying out of pocket what the deductable would cost you anyways to pay for the job, and avoid insurance premium increases in the future because of making a claim! Because, if they pay now, they'll still get you later; like what happens when you go through the DRIVE-THRU!!!!

[@joeshmoe8912]

Nice repair buddy! Fellow roofer/carpenter here. Thanks.

[@oliverlathe]

Well done Brian !😉👍

[@groundrodshorts]

Great video! I'm an electrical contractor. I also have become a RoofMaxx dealer in the last year. I'm finding that I'm not as agile and comfortable as I once was on a roof. I like your channel for learning how to address small repairs for roofmaxx business. Thanks!

[@diane7546]

Good job! 👍 My roof is leaking. Will you fix it for me? LOL! Very informative video. Thanks for doing this video. Now I know the process of fixing it. Just got to find someone I can afford. I'm po' you know.

[@misterx4088]

Thanks. Ordered a mag hammer.

[@1Patient]

Thanks for sharing. I like your 1 Takes. I am knowledgeable about construction, windows, the path of water and how it travels, but I am still not sure about the roofing shingles, and the keyway, etc, I know you work your way up from bottom to top and lap backwards to prevent water infiltration. Lots to know. Keep up the good work. What would you charge to do a job like this? Have a great day.

[@martindaniels4597]

Nice work. Wish you were in my area ,Portsmouth,Ohio, as I need a chimney flashed that my roofer messed up. He is gone and I can’t climb anymore, 79 yrs old.

[@garrett3113]

Nice. Looks good.

[@paulmcwilliams9998]

Nice walkable

[@woodmasterguy]

Excellent video and great tutorial, thank you...

[@brandonrappuhn4085]

I tried my best to tackle my own roof, had a lot of mistakes that made me have to have it redone. I learned a lot from my mistakes, and learning even more by watching these videos. Hiring your company was the best choice I'd made! Could maybe request a how to of the proper ways to start your shingles, 3 tab, and architecture to where you don't run into rain line (key line?) problems as you advance up the roof?

[@petesilvestri]

This is great content and educational as well.

[@loumonte658]

Great work.

[@milo6373]

Having to do a patch repair right 👍 this was on the money.... ☝️✌️🙏☯️🤔☝️

[@josephlbrociousjr3951]

Be safe

[@daryllouis5364]

Thanks for teaching me so much

[@roadstar499]

i like the mag hammer you use,but i just ordered a roof snake for helping save time and my skin ripping off my knuckles... back in 2004 i had a nice 16 oz claw hammer with a mag we used for drying in...handle broke,but i need to see if i can find it and put a new handle on... Great video...

[@brucego6018]

U r AWESOME! U do clean n professionally work man. Wish u were in my area

[@pcarpy7]

Nice work

[@LuisVazquez-xi2yq]

Love your Videos!! Honesty Over every single thing! Thanks

[@justinwood7156]

prolly has been stated, but that full roof could have been covered fully with a redeck. and you just mentioned it :) as i keep watching

[@3joneskids1]

what would you charge for a job like you just so wonderfully demonstrated?

[@roadstar499]

buying hook blades today... i forgot all about them...they are a huge time saver and do a much better job then regular blades...thanks for sharing

[@steelem422]

I could never do your job looks so difficult and I have a major personality disorder than when I am in high places among other people I feel the need to push someone off so if I did it daily eventually this feeling would take over and I may get into trouble..again.

[@Oheeeoh]

I'll probably never have to do roof repair in my lifetime, but for some reason I want one of those hammers like you have. Thanks for the informative video.

[@ncpanther1226]

Just started watching your videos. Any advice on getting over the fear of heights AND the ladder to roof or roof to ladder transition? Gets me nervous. Also shoes. I need a good pair of shoes because the ones I have (Running Shoes) have no grip so I slide. Thanks

[@roadstar499]

even ply decks have many gaps which basically a lot of roofers end up blowing nails threw or nails are there but have zero hold... when you hand nail you can easily adjust and just put in some extra nails or pull nail and hit higher and lower. the bottom line is,just because a roof looks good from the road it does not mean it was done without mistakes...

[@jddonahue2]

another great Vid!

[@schism8286]

Epic video. Would definitely share a beer with this dude

[@packers45678]

I’ve seen your roofer investment series but can you elaborate on how you’ve done a lot with a little? Appreciate that long form content too buddy

[@jacobalderman105]

Good video thanks 👍👍

[@denistorres8337]

Thanks great video for personal knowledge.

[@the-_-5874]

Valeu mano! Ajudou pra caramba. Bom trabalho.

[@jorgelmartinez3453]

Done a great work, experience worth it..!! 👍👏👏👍

[@dirkg7062]

Great job!

[@Dem-yv6qz]

What happens if the roof shingles are nailed directly onto the wood (roof) and no "roofing felt" has been used ?

[@hammeltron]

Nice job roof pimp

[@kenmifsud8008]

Great video do u have one on a valley repair

[@boashna]

bravo- who paid for the job insurance or customer

[@stateboy80892]

Wish I could shoot you an email with photo attachments of what's going on with the dormers of the house we recently bought... Bought into the previous owners issues ughhh lol

[@aydenlenzi800]

All I wanna do is fix my roof but it to hard I think I have no expersince and idk what a key way is or anything any extra advice u could give to a complete beginner would be amazing nd very appreciated me and my dad do not have the money to get it fixed at all

[@gregoryacevedo2940]

Great video. What brand of adhesive are you using. Is that strongest one for high winds ?

[@josephinelooman5878]

You did a great job

[@randybrown5718]

You are good !

[@bryan17293]

Have a straight wind that swept through and only took off about a dozen half shingles at different locations only over garage. The rest of the roof is fine. This application would be the answer to my roof damage. The wind tore them in halves right upper shingle level. I kept the torn shingles, they are still pliable, may just glue them back on, may be puzzle getting them back in existing location. You think just gluing them would work?

[@cesarzablan1334]

So how much was that repair for ? Thanks

[@thedeplorable7867]

Would really like to know your preferred shingle sealant? Overwhelming to me.

[@Raz-G]

So quick question im not a roofer but im super interested in the work and you know just in general expanding my knowledge on the profession but, why do you lift up the shingles not where the repair should be? I understand that that the shingles are all layers upon layers but it looks odd.

[@wertz987]

I love your videos. I just had my roof replaced by a reputable company I think. I can't believe all the bad roofs that people are paying for. I have questions first shingles have been around for ever shouldn't there be a one time way to install them and second im curious about the 2×4 decking I have never seen that

[@infoanalysis]

my shingles are a llittle stiffer when you have to lift of up the older shingles to do a repaior and nail in the new ones.Is there any trick so you dont breakoff the old shingles

[@Bob-n2d]

How do you install one of these exhaust vent on torch down flat roof ?

[@johnwaby4321]

What a brilliant repair 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
