    I would recommend a synthetic roof underlayment instead of roofing felt. Most of your leaks will come from the felt failing. Nice video!

      He’s screwing this thing up he is not giving the customer a good roof you cannot use felt and peel and stick in the valleys they should be either a TPO or my opinion should be sheet metal custom fabricated, Yes you’re right synthetic on the roof do you layers of 30 is garbage

    Great Video. Tile Roof is a complicated skill. Thanks for sharing! I'm going to try to fix my mother-in-law's roof. Roof was "re-roofed" by a contractor...by-removing Flat concrete tiles (Monier Homestead)... removing battens/felt/valleys. Pro-Armor underlayment was used (stapled down). Flashing around skylights was done wrong (old flashing was re-used) and immediately leaked into the house. Contractor placed large tarp over both skylights, extending to the ridge 9 months ago...and has not returned to repair. I need to fix the leaks before the rainy season and get rid of the tarps. Also, contractore didn't use a drip edge or anti-ponding of any sort used at the edges of the roof, so, lots of water runs behind Fascia. I plan on removing tiles around the skylights and seal/flash the best I can. I was wondering if you have any recommendations on flashing around skylights (4 feet x 4 feet), and what to do about lack of any drip-edge or anti ponding around entire roof edge?

    @scottjenkins4613 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    In Florida here, after hurricane Michael in 2018, we saw some tile roofs survive and others fail. The ones that survived had two nails in each shingle. The ones that failed had only one nail in each shingle. A stone shingle moving 150 mph is a dangerous projectile to all property nearby. Stone shingles were like missiles blowing through peoples doors, windows, walls, etc. I would suggest going to the added time and expense to add one more nail to each shingle.

    • @josht5453
      @josht5453 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hard to take you seriously when you referred to tiles as “shingles” about 10 different times. Shingles are an asphalt-based product with completely different installations than tiles.
      Also hurricane level winds are going to destroy tile roofs regardless of wind speed. Quality products and installation only takes you so far when you start talking about 100+ mph winds

    • @scottjenkins4613
      @scottjenkins4613 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@josht5453 I'm sure that regardless of what you call them, the manufacturer's specifications are for a fastener in each hole. And the houses on the same street in the same hurricane all faired differently depending on the installation of the roof materials. Don't make excuses because everyone knows that contractors take shortcuts and do crappy work quite often.

    Closed valleys leak. Open valleys allow water and debris to flow more freely. Except for slid-down, or broken tile, debris gets trapped and builds up, causing water to run along the top of the tile causing 95% of valley failures. Not an opinion here, just an observation.

    • @Garciasroofing
      @Garciasroofing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I folded the edge of the valleys about 1 inch to elevate the tiles over the valley and allow the water to run under the tiles. I do many tile repairs on the raining season and this idea has been giving me good results

    I believe code is two nails or one screw. I don't understand why roofers even use 30lb felt when there are so many better underlayments. Such as TU43, TileSeal self adhering base with 30 year warranty. If you give people the option they will usually chose the better base sheet.

      You need to remove the door flench on the bottom of the door . before installing any new metal , install 1 layer of self adhere membrane over the exposed wood. Then get a 4x4 L metal and install it to the length of the door . the metal that goes over where the metal flench was fold it inside the door. Then install the metal flench back and make sure to seal any penetration with clear caulking. Attach the new roof to the bottom flench of your 4x4 metal

      Really roofer? Do you know what's the purpose of the cap nails? Do you know why they are made of plastic?
      It seems you don't fully understand the purpose of the cap nails..anyways Im not here to argue with you...rather I'll tell you after tou install the products on the roof...the nails are useless...the tiles hold the felt in place by applying pressure over the felt and the fastener of the tiles do that too...when you do shingles is the same thing.. The coil nails do the same thing to the felt...you dont need a million dollar to hold the felt in place...you only need it to hold it while you install the materials...read you local codes...unless you are in Florida then use round metal fasteners to hold the felt.
      Thank for the comment.
