Rookie Roofing 101: QUALITY CLINIC

This video demonstrates a lot of the common mistakes that roofers don't realize they're making. these roofers all have very little time behind a gun so cut them some slack. Boycub just recently learned a month ago, you can find that video on my channel as well if you want to see his first time ever shingling and how far he's come. thanks every body for watching

I bought this nail gun as we were planning to renew all the fencing in our back garden. As this involved 19 double slatted fence panels, 10 of which needed to be cut down in size, we knew there would be a need for a great kzbin.infoUgkxHQsUrwNr5GQrnx9V4xDdUr56qxwuiBHt deal of re-stapling the wooden slats to the wooden framework. Each alteration required the re-stapling of 62 wooden slats with double staples. Prior to starting the work we ordered sufficient additional staples as per the instructions with the gun.The gun performed fantastically throughout the entire project with no jams of misfires. The adjustable power was excellent allowing the staples to be fired into the 8mm slats to the correct depth. For the price paid this was a bargain and it proved itself to be so reliable and versatile making an arduous task much quicker and professional. I cannot recommend this product highly enough and it will be used on many other projects in the future.

I tried roofing as a career when I was 13 and only lasted about 1.5 years. I then at 17 had to roof a 36sq roof after hurricane Katrina by myself and now here 16 years later after hurricane ida i find myself doing it once more and again by myself. I am by no means a roofer and thank you for helping me out on all the things I should already know....thanks bro

I simply don't understand the hate on here. I've watched every video Zack has made, and it is clearly obvious the man takes pride in his work. Zack - I'd be honored to have you and your guys up on my roof anytime. I know its not possible, but if you came to southern OH, I'd 100% have you do my roof (which needs done). You are very patient with your guys, and the most important thing is that everyone has a great attitude. You are giving these guys knowledge - the timeless handing down of knowledge from professionals to novices. They're listening, and boy cub is gaining confidence. Ignore the hate bud. I love your channel, your work ethic, and your pride. If I'm ever up in Northern Indiana, I'll look you up just to shake your hand. Keep em' coming bud.

When I built my house I was able to participate in putting the roof on and realized how much the old man had taught me without me knowing it.

Hey Zach! I remember helping my uncles with roofs when i was a young ladd, although i was just a labourer and didnt really get to lay, i payed attention and understood the basics....i eventually became a steady framer and after a couple yrs started running a crew. As you know in the building trades you meet a ton of people, people looking for a cheaper price (cash)......so i started shingling the houses i was framing. I just wanted to say thank you, i framed a house with 2 long hips, 2 long valleys, and 2 dormers, all 9 12 pitch, the homeowner asked if i would roof it and i immediately said yes lol, but in my head i was like ohhhh fuk! I was anxious cause of the hips and valleys. I stumbled across your vids and never looked back, your attention to detail it great and you dont come off as a know it all, and you explain things so clearly. With your patience im sure green guys starting out working with you are lucky to have a boss like you. Most of my bosses were screamers and didnt teach me fuk all, didnt want me to succeed even though i was a hard worker. What were your early experiences like?and where are you living? Keep the vids coming they are entertaining and full of knowledge. Take care man hope u and your family is safe from all this civid shit.

[@raybrensike42]

Though water does indeed run down hill, as long as there is no wind, a hole through many layers of shingles will leak, no matter how many layers are underneath. You should always cover over a nail hole with something, even if there is another layer of shingle going over it. Sometimes the edge doesn't always seal and sometimes a new roofer might not notice a removed nail and he might allow a joint to be there.

[@MrJdsenior]

I've put on about 4 roofs in my life, on three houses and one 1800 sq ft shop. They all worked fine (water runs downhill IS the mantra), but watching this, I see there were about 50 things I could have done to make the job a lot easier and faster. NOT cutting the overhang, but the other side of the shingle for the stair step is brilliant...and a lot safer than hanging over or near the edge to cut. You also obviously get a better looking end, since they are the factory cut, and I wouldn't have punched drip strip like I did in two places (ARRRG!). I've never seen a valley done that way, with the parallel shingle run up the snap line, either, but it makes a HUMONGOUS amount of sense...BOTH speed AND scrap wise. I would just have to make sure it meets code in my area. I'm sixty and change now and the roof is just about due (next 5 yrs or so, anyway), and I figure this next one should last pretty much the rest of my life...and if it doesn't, I sure as hell won't be putting on the next one!

I've worked in construction. It's tough being the apprentice. You really have to put yourself forward and figure out a lot on your own (wish there was KZbin back then). Not that a boss might not help you out. (You're giving everyone a lot of help in this video!) It just takes more than that. They can't hand it to you. I realize now there's just not the time to lead everyone by the hand. You work hard on it, and others will see that.... I was picking up a little work the first time on a framing crew in Texas. The boss came over to me when I was nailing on a nail. He said " You ARE a woodpecker, ain't you?" My friend had warned him I was new.

It was hard for me too. When I started you had to prove you could hand nail with speed and accuracy before they’d let you get a hold of a gun. I really loved roofing, I still do so as a young 18-year-old, I would bust my butt to impress the older guys and learn the trade. It had paid off

[@alexz7766]

I get uncomfortably anxious whenever he gets close to the edge, especially so when he moves the camera over the edge.

[@MrJdsenior]

That is one thing you REALLY have to watch roofing, especially when you are working with your back to the edge on the first courses where you work uphill. More people are hurt and killed roofing than are hurt and killed as cops. And as a DIY roofer that's done a few, I wouldn't even think about doing a very high pitched roof, myself.

[@MOST415]

The second you let that youngster lay that shingle with the blown through holes.. you failed as a teacher. You just taught him that that’s okay to do, and it’s not. I’m not knocking this down, but don’t teach someone bad habits, or how to slough when no one’s looking. I was taught to do everything correctly the first time, so that there never had to be a second time. After slinging shingles for 28 years.. I still made the occasional mistake, but when I stepped off the ladder, it was done correctly. A good suggestion for those starting out, or teaching someone how to roof.. start them out with pounding nails by hand. When they’re comfortable with those movements, and they become ingrained, you’ll be surprised with the fluidity, and productivity of an air gun in anyone’s hand. The students are only as good as the teacher..

Yeah and who cuts shingles on the finished roof? That's when you see another company repairing a roof like this because it failed due to cuts and gashes made in the finished roof by cutting shingles on it. Not even a roofer myself in just an ameture so I have nothing to gain from giving a neg review but I think there's some bad habits being taught here. I read and was told by buddies who roof that you don't do this particular habit. Pre cut them on the ground then bring them up. The stair step doesn't change weather it's on the ground or 14 feet up. You can already tell that underlayment is being compromised by razor blades.

You have a Good teacher man and you a good student

[@partycrasher8473]

Pro tip instead of overhanging the shingle and cutting it with a hook blade . Try this turn the shingle to the back side and place it to the edge of the dripedge and cut the shingle on the roof but from the backside using a straight blade, pick it back up and fold it to finish the cut. Now when you put it back in place the cut will be towards the edge and you wont have to cut leaning over the edge. I say straight blade because it makes straight cuts easier quicker and saves blades. I do hope you try this atleast 1 time coming from one veteran roofer to another much respect 👍👍

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

I actually have tried that! and It was a good opportunity to do the research on whats more efficient also coz I was racing a guy I beat all the time but I didn't have a hook blade, so I had to cut my starter rake with a straight blade (shingle backwards) and do the end rake like you said, he beat me by a minute n a half n I fully blame not having the hook blade. up to you though, if that's your preference have at it man!!

[@andrewangelos85]

Sweet channel. Great for homeowners too.

[@stayclassic2361]

When you run your shingles along the edge of the roof I always try to keep the factory side of the shingle butting to the next shingle. I’m not good at making straight cuts so I like to always cut my shingle off the edge of the roof so I can use the drip edge as my guide while I cut. Then I use the scraps I had on one end and use them on the other end

[@MrJdsenior]

I'm surprised someone doesn't make a shingle cutter similar to a sliding tile cutter, seems like it might be a worthwhile device. It seems like even just a square with a fat side, like some you see, speed square type, would solve the crooked cut problem.

[@stayclassic2361]

John Sikes I think part of it is it would maybe be difficult to use on the roof. Also it would possibly take more time to to cut a shingle for an experienced roofer as opposed to them just cutting it with a knife. Personally cutting shingles is one of the most annoying aspects of roofing to me, especially in colder weather. Anything that could be done to make the cutting process less difficult and more efficient would be awesome. Maybe some sort of 12v battery powered mini dremel like tool would be possible

You're doing a great job keep up the good work I have a question though I noticed I didn't see any events or even a ridgevent

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

There's one or the other there for sure. Probably ridge vent if I remember right.

that valley looks sexy!! thx for showing us, that is now my new way..

[@ericstaszak2526]

Training 3 guys at once I’m sure ain’t easy. You got a lot of patience. Everyone should respect that. Also has anyone told you that you look like baker mayfield ? Lmao

[@filipefrade8396]

This rookie makes me nervous. You need to manage the loose shingles and hose around you. Especially that hose. Don’t fall bud! His boss, is a great mentor. Overall his team is excited to learn and take direction. Keep the energy up boys. Great work! Giver banger!

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Thanks. See boycub in more recent videos. Rip boycub specifically

[@charlesviner1565]

Nice grill cover. You are a great teacher and funny 😄. From davenport IA. Do you want him to smoke it for you too LOL

[@RJForest.]

I like to cut each shingle like an inch bigger than nail it. And come back and cut 5 with a shingle as a straight edge. Much quicker and prob a bit straighter

[@RJForest.]

Should always make them wear their tools too. What happens when a nail don't go on all the way or an h clip is up ? Do they run across the roof to get a hatchet ?. And don't you use knee pads ? So much better. Haha funny video. Life of the new guys

[@jmancira]

I like your teaching style

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Thank you

[@jakepizza9363]

I’m starting a new roofing job next week... Thank you for the videos and I can only hope to have someone half as nice as you to train me!

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Yessir good luck. Don't forget to tell them about the pitch hoppers and send them my most recent video!

We would usually snap lines every 4 or 8 rows for new guys. That way they can't get too far off in a short span
