A lot of you guys have asked me about tools and supplies in the past so I became an amazon affiliate and looked up the best stuff for you guys. In the description you'll find my favorite tools or the best deals I could find on amazon. check it out and let me know what you think. Be sure to check out PART 1 if you haven't seen it. I show you guys how to hang soffit in that one. Like and Sub to see more. Going to post the siding part soon
Hey man love your videos learned alot.. hey quick question, how r the pitch hoppers doing for you have they lost their stick at all?
@@aaronporter5683 they're still kicking ass. I don't get on too many steep ones so I imagine these one will last another year or 2 easy
@@NWIVeteranConstruction OK yeah I used ours on like 3 roofs and they kind of act like they got a little caulk on them just kind of slick, but yeah they don't even stay hardly on their own without any weight on them just curious ya know
Thank you for updating the malco link. those look amazing, and i just bought them. i also bought the hand bender, flexzilla hose, and the dual knife and love them as much as i love your videos. great content, well organized, and very informative. keep up the good work.
Hey brother im working for work need an extra paire of hands, I'm a 6 year experienced shingle roofer have done flat roof as well, vinyl siding and metal work as well like facia, sofit, chimney wraps. Got my roof nailer ready and available when ever you are. I've been watching your Channel for a couple of year now I'm close to you to.
It's very kind of you to take the time to help people with your comprehensive videos. It's much appreciated. You should not stop. It takes many many years to build a channel, but you will be rewarded.
Thank you for making these videos. Saving money being my own ‘contractor.’ Cheers 🍻
Thank you. You explain everything that needs explaining perfectly and unambiguously , and don't explain a bunch of crap that doesn't need it.
Very good video. Thanks for teaching your skills. I’m a retired commercial electrician that wound up in the Audio Visual industry and learned how to work with metal studs and tin snips way back in the day. Now I’m putting coil stock and vinyl on my shed. I’m trying to figure out how to cut an inside corner bend with tin snips and then saw you use the scribe and break method. You made my day fella. Thanks for your service to our country as well.🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🛢️🛢️🛢️🛢️🛢️
I have been watching your videos for the past couple days man and you are amazing keep up the work and thank you for taking your time to teach
No problem man glad you're enjoying
This is wildy helpful. Thank you
No problem! Happy to help
Hey great videos man. I’ve done nothing but roofing and siding for the last 15 years and just like watching the way other people do it I do have a tip though. When running your facia over top of your bird box where are you take your knife and cut the bottom lip I’ll take a piece of cool stock and make a double half inch bend to make a hem and it locks right in over the raw edge. Mostly only do it when it’s over 18 inches but it really helps the metal lay flat and it gives a really good. Also when running that top piece of rake facia I just brought my tape to the soffit side of the peak measure to the bottom of my facia and then subtract a quarter inch pull your measurement to the top Burn an inch and a quarter for overlap market and cut 2 inches longer and then the mark on your lip will be a bend point that you cut away from the face and bend it down. It’s just A way to do it without scribing
Also if you take a roofing nail and pre-punch your holes for your trim nails it makes them set completely flush without putting dimples in the metal but just pre-punch about half the tip of a Roofing nail
i've seen that bend over the birdbox! actually considered doing it for this video. i always thought it looked ok. and i usually wallow the hole out a little bit before sinking it but i will try the siding nail thing
A 10' aluminum break is a nice tool to have, if you can afford it
Very good. Thank You.
Where did you go man?? Your channel was starting to blow up and you disappeared. LET'S GO
You right. It's about that time ain't it
@@NWIVeteranConstruction We'll be waiting brother. ✌🏼🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
All legit, the man does good work.
You can also make these bends using a piece of 2x4 or the customer's deck railing and a hammer, sometimes it is hard too find such tools
Awesome 👌 always open to new ideas & techniques
Great video !
Thanks for the visit
Good deal , great looking work brother !
Thanks 👍
everybody shows how to put ice and water shield on OSB. But how do you handle tear off when it has non removable ice and water and you don't want to waste too much time on it..DIY
It's tough, on occasion the ice and water will come off. If it doesn't I always just get underneath it layer by layer and and get it mostly flat. You can't do much else besides get the overlapping parts off and let the flat pieces stay. If that's too problematic all you can really do is change the first sheet all the way around. It's common for guys to do that
Hey Zach I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now, I’m only 20, but I started roofing when I was 14 and over the years I saved up, bought tools, and really practiced my trade… I bought a nice looking clean truck, and I’ve been working for myself for close to a year now and I’ve been staying afloat but it’s still basically paycheck to paycheck, can you do a video giving advice on finding work, starting a business and how to be fruitful… I know it’s mostly experience, but I just wanna hear what someone who actually works has to say on the topic
A metal awl (scratch awl) and hammer works well for punching holes through (even on metal roofs too, but with like fascia etc….not trying to do entire stack at once either), yes, will eventually be buying a new awl…..but can get a pack of around 5 for $4-$6, even w/ today’s prices😉.
Also like the “trick” for at peak of gable end doing a few cuts to bend over the fascia so it’s one piece at the top, little more work though then just measuring and doing a scribe, miter, or straight cut….but everyone has their own favorite way; and that’s what makes things interesting, imo….seeing and learning from one another “ppl’s tips & tricks” that can help others out. Nothing wrong w/ trying something new and if find don’t “like or not your style”, than ya don’t do again and move to what were doing or try again w/ something new.
¹ Do AGREE that buying your material from Home Depot, Lowes, etc…instead from a supply “store” does make a difference, imo, as you stated and noticed in w/ this install. Seems to be better “quality” at certain places than others, which, again, imo….can make a difference in the install process; especially w/ time and fasteners used.
Have a good one✌🏻
¹ edited: b/c I added this extra comment (as an fyi to NE1, after a like/dislike/comment)
Nice work zach
Thanks!
Thanks for the video 👍
You bet
Woow amazing,⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥👏👏👏👏👏👏
Where you been at man?
Are you locked up? Lol jk
Post once a year. Great content respect. From a 🇨🇦
I had a piece of front fascia metal blow off in a big wind storm the other day, I can’t seem to get it to slide back under the drip edge, any tips with that? Or just pry it up with a screw driver?
Good
Any videos coming out? Your been missing for a while and would love some more videos
Lmfao I just came to comment this 😂
Great video though man!
Glad you liked it!
I am installing flat roof flashing under shingles and over corrugated patio roof.
Seems most city codes require roof flashing to be 26 Gauge (0.019 inch).
But the flashing rolls sold at Home Depot are thinner.
How do I resolve this?
Good job
How do you go about pricing a soffit and fascia job?
Galvanized staples?
Can we get some different types of valley installations and how to shingle a hip
Yesssir
Looks good. But that drip edge looks bad. Those corners are a eye sore and for sure gonna leak and rot that fascia board out.!!
No sir! It all comes full circle, people keep telling me to wrap the gutter apron around but then the gutter guy can't extend past the roof an inch which they all do. The facia wraps around tall and covers that part you're talking about. Not the drip or apron
@@NWIVeteranConstruction yea, I know what your talking about there. I've always ran into that same thing with the gutter. I mean I guess if you get the fascia up tight enough without warping it will work. But with the gutter I just trim the back of the gutter that is the 1in. Or so past off just down enough right at that bend on the drip just so everything is closed still.!!
If your covering your facia with gutter,why nail the bottom? You can nail or screw in the middle where the trough would sit and hide the screws, also where I’m from we don’t trim nail the gable facia the weather usually rips it off no matter if we nail the face or lip
strange. I've never had nothing blow off and it's definitely because I make sure I nail the seams. and I don't prefer to secure behind the gutter. I do prefer the nails underneath because if you don't then the fascia could move in a wind storm and eventually, you'll start to lose soffit.
We haven’t had a problem with losing soffit the way we do it but there is a lot of ways for application! But I definitely took some of your ways into the field!
@@cadenjohnson5670 for sure bud! Plenty of ways.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction whenever we do gable fascia we predrill holes in the metal before we nail it so it wouldn't look wavy. Idk if it's us or that's what happens to everyone. Or there is some other way hot to avoid it
I always use roofing nails for under wrap connections on the fascia and rake( center), as it has a bigger head than pin nails, then pin nail top bottom with pin nails at connections and under metal to soffit, it holds better against any weather!
Where u been?
What do you mean @ 11:19??
Do you use ss staples? What size do you use for fascia?
yea i use staples to install the soffit. and trim nails to install the fascia
Hello, do you have a Patreon page or some other way to ask you questions? I have to put a roof on a small house that used to belong to my mother, and though your videos are a great help, I still have a question of two to that specific project.
i don't. you can ask here.
Where is this dude at
Hey man i love your videaos dude you have tought me a lot of things that i cant wait to try on the roof. Unfortunately its January in New York and shingle roofs are few and far between. I was wondering if you do medal toofs as well? Also I would like to actually talk to you about the roofing olympics. My buddy whos name is also Zach has his own company and is incredibly fast. Honestly i think it would be pretty damn close between you and him. Its cool that your doing that shit none the less, im glad you're trying to bring people together.
Where you at???
why did you stop posting?
One video taking me a year
Post more videos bro

Wow you are still working on the same project, shit this is taking you 5 years to build 4 walls and a roof
I’m missing your videos
sorry bud. me and the cub will be back soon
He
U must b gtn gd numbers to waste time on this unecessary measures. Why would u use that prefab fascia? Do a z bend for porkchop create nailing falange to wall then box out. Alot holes in ur game dude
What happened to you bro
Workin my man. I'll be back soon got a lot to share
So you're no longer in business due to personal health reasons?
Hell no lol workin on a video now and have all kinds of work going on. Always been in business
@@NWIVeteranConstruction That's good to know we're all looking forward to your videos.
@@ozziestrom9793 hoping to have it done this Sunday. This one has been 5 months in the making
I know that’s how they do it in some parts of the country but that pre made fascia is ugly and cheap looking. I’d rather scrape and paint than to have something like that on my house.
i get that a lot. but out here there's aluminum fascia everywhere. i usually hear that people prefer to bend it themselves but i heavily prefer the pre bent fascia. its stronger and those ribs look good for what its worth. of course smart side and soffit will look better than vinyl and aluminum but not everyone can afford it
Pre bent is the way to go when you bend your own it looks good but the bottom lip ripples a lot of you’re not super on point with it pre bent is a little more forgiving
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I've never Used pre bent fascia so i have no opinion of it. But I like to bend my own. Mostly because I can make it Any size and shape i need. Only pre bent thing I've used were drip caps from home Depot and i didn't like them because I prefer to have factory bend on the front part and i also make sure to have. At least 3" or more for nailing strip.
Also I like to work with brake more than anything so I guess that also has something to do with it
Shame on this channel looking for more vids, but what he teaches is all wrong
fascia it called fascia metal of alum fascia not gutter apron your to funny honey
He was talking about the drip edge 😂😂
yo why yo be cutting dwn a 24 ft plank .my sweaty?????????me reamber lover never sweat the petty stuff but alway pet the sweaty stuff
Pure garbage, material and workmanship.
Bro you have no idea what you're talking about. Obviously this material is not common by you. In Indiana... it's basically on every single house.
