[@tomcoleman4207]

Watching you cut the starters to expose more of the tar line, I do that too! Also I was taught decades ago to save the grit in the bundles to mix with tar or silicone to cover the last nails on the cap or any exposed nails in the field!

[@IceManOregon]

That was great! Fun too, I'm roofing a 10x12 shed with a steep pitch I need all the tips I can get!

[@semajwelton6159]

When I started shingling in 91, three tabs were the thing, we snapped 5 inch lines all the way up the roof. Perfect every time

Back in my day, we rode wagons all the way to town and was a minimum of two days to haul material back….

[@MrGregggleziii]

Back in my day we skinned our enemies and used the skins as roofing tarp. It was good because back in those days, every one was 5 foot even and we didn't have to worry about using silly things like squares or tape measure

They always have to over compensate shit to up the pricetags .. Three tabs are just as good as anything else. No one is staring at someone's roof.

[@rmorales39]

​@@garycasper2929Where I'm from, three tab shingles do not last on a roof too long due to high winds. This shingle is more wind resistant. It's a quality upgrade.

Good roofer. Gittin' er done. 4 nails is enough. Wasting 25% with 5. And no shiners. Reloading less often I put the factory end on the right rake. Nail it and make the cut on the inside end. Make all my cuts with an old pair of large tin snips. Try it you might like it You're welcome

@Robert Karp there should be a private distributer within an hours drive, sometimes lumber yards will have stuff like that. but if you're doing it for yourself then you're fine using an upside down shingle

[@robertkarp2070]

@@NWIVeteranConstruction Thank you. My biggest challenge has been two roof jacks, both for AC Connection that are close together that a corner of the flat part had to be cut off to clear the upright part of the other. I've had a hard time shingling around those two properly and I know what I have there now is going to leak. So I'll have to go back and try something different. one of them isn't hardly a pipe coming up. It's a small tube for the electrical to pass through that is much smaller than the opening of the boot. They are open ended boots, there's no rubber seal around them. Tomorrow I'll be working with a couple valleys. I worked for a roofer in Arkansas in the Mid 90's for a little bit, just enough to get me into trouble now.

[@Fehrfamilyhomestead]

With Certainteed Landmarks and the Certainteed swiftstart starters they are the same length which is nice

[@RabidParana1]

I find most brands are like that. GAF seams to have made their starter to fit their 3 tabs and not updated it. Don't quote me but I heard the official solution is to start with a half length, but on a long run it will still catch up.

Could you run your first starter up the rake?...butt the next one up to that running along the roof line...first shingle is a full one...seems the easiest, to me any ways.

Yeah this video isn't for people that have experience. More for someone who wants to shingle an addition our side skirt. It's good for people to know what to look for.

[@gusmarokity6482]

A little mouse can crawl in between his two metal overlap. Not best. You need to squeeze the end of the one coming on top, or if wood deck not straith you need to cut your metal at the peaK of bend or curve and restart your edging with new overlap. If you just do 3/8 outside metal edge you could nail your starter into asphalt strip and with long enough nail you can reach your facia wood too so strong wind will have no chance to play with you first shingle row. If you worried about water penetration you could mastic or caulk top of nails that will also serve as additional 'glue' holding down first row to your starter, especially very low slope roof needs extra attention. Just watch out of amount mastic you use so as to not sticking out and make a mess of the face of your metal edge. Also, since this roof almost flat throw in some mastic or caulking for your eve metal connections, again small amount to keep edging clean. Of course these tricks mostly for homeowners who wants maximum performance out of their new roof. Good luck.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Ain't no mouse getting in none of my metal lol everything is tight

[@Sourkeyz]

Hey, did you just use your fingers as a stop for your nail gun, and if your starters is shorter then your shingle just cut the thing in half you'll be fine

@@richardcranium5518 no bro. Learn lol here's the 100% undeniable reason you have to put gutter Apron tight. have you ever seen a sub fascia that hangs a little lower than the plywood? Where you can see a little bit of rafter tail coz the plywood doesn't plane? It happens often. If you don't have the apron tight, 1) gutter guy and people installing aluminum fascia are gonna have a hell of a time installing. 2) if field mice run up in that gutter they could climb right under the apron and into the attic easilyyy.. 3) if you hang apron a quarter there's no way to keep it straight and consistent as well as now you're gonna have too much overhang into the gutter after you starter/ shingles. tell me that's OK?

Does anyone know if there’s an advantage/ disadvantage to doing it that way or is it just preference? Thanks!

Only thing different is that you don't. Have to put starters on the hips just the bottom. Then run cap up the hip the same way. Cap the hips first then the ridge. Frist cap on the ridge gets sliced from the center of the tar line out to either the top or bottom depending on preference, so that it can sit flat against the three sides it touches

[@stevebracey5162]

assuming water shield is better than paper, outside of expense is there something wrong with using ice and water shield on the entire roof?

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Well for starters, it's kind of a d*k move to be honest lol tearing off the shingles on that is no fun, entire roof might need resheeted next time the roof gets tore off. Also, even in icy areas, most roofs that were done well didn't have ice problems on the eaves before so the ice shield is just an extra thing of protection. It's just unnecessary on a few different levels, unless of course, the pitch is 3:12 and lower

[@larrycrookshanks1646]

I hope no one takes your installing seriously. Ice and water shield first ,metal drip edge next, roof underlayment next, shingle starter next with 1"-1 1/4" past metal. 1" overhang on rakes with no drip and 1/2" with drip on .

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

All over hangs are to be ¼ - 1"... and that I've and water shield thing, it can go either way. Most people do it my way, but idc if my guys do it the other way. It's the same difference and every builder I work for requests the metal to go under. I've heard some inspections that require the ice to be on first, that's weird to me. But yea man I hope you don't take yourself too seriously lol 😂 stickler for dumb shit

[@larrycrookshanks1646]

@@NWIVeteranConstruction Seriously as I have installed since 1968 in Northeast Ohio in the snow belt and I'm 2nd generation. If you live below the freeze line in the US then you shouldn't have to worry about ice buildup. If you do live in the northern line then you should adhere to the installation of Ice and Water shield 3" down over the gutter board and up the roof 2' inside of the interior wall line. If you have gutters installed on your house then you better adhere to the cold weather installation manual because if it's done your way the ice water will back up under your metal edges and into the soffits especially at the metal edge overlaps. This usually happens when the temperatures are below 32 degrees for extended periods with moderate snow pack on the roof.

@@NWIVeteranConstruction what’s the non hillbilly way of repairing or covering shiners? Is there a standard fix?

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

@@calebwhite6173 pull the shingle and put a new one is really the only good way. Or maybe remove the nail, loosen the shingle from the bottom and put color match caulk underneath the shingle where the hole was so that caulk oozes out and you can put granules over it

@@NWIVeteranConstruction alright fair enough. I was taught just caulk over it and the granules over top. It’s a bit excessive to replace the shingle unless you really mess it up haha. I like the different methods so thank you. It will definitely come in handy in the future. One other thing I’ve been taught is when looking for a leak look for rusted nails and it usually leads to the source of where waters getting in. These videos are great and make me really excited for this work. Can’t wait for summer!
