- In this video I show how I built my garage roof with timber joists, OSB board and an EPDM roof covering. I show the materials I used and how I carried out the project with my brother Big Pouse. The roof was built 5 years previous to the video so I show you how the roof has held up and what improvements I've made since. I bought the EPDM roofing materials from National Roofing.

At last some one who explained how you attach it to the house wall,new subscriber
Glad it was helpful! There are different ways to do this mind. This is fine for a garage roof, but for proper house floors designed to be walked on every day then you might tie the joists into the wall by knocking a few bricks out. Thanks for the sub!
A lot of commitment making a video 5 years later, well done mate
I have a lot of old footage, just having time to edit it! Thanks for watching.
Very smart, have to say it's better than a felt roof.
Much better than felt. As long as you have a nice flat surface underneath it's fairly quick to get water tight. You can also buy it cut to size in one piece for smaller rooves which is great! Thanks for watching.
That rubber roof is great lasts over 20 years, lovely job :) Glad to see that you put a bit of a slope on the roof.
Thanks for the feedback Nick.
Hey Pouse we did a great job on that roof. You forgot to say it had all that scaffolding on it for 1 1/2 years aswell!! And it still looks like new!! Give ones self a pat on the back 👍
Very true, it's certainly solid underneath that dirty surface!
Thanks, Just doing a first floor extension and wondered how I was going to fix to the cedrel profile I think I know how to do that now..
Best of luck with It!
The best of the best vid for EDM roof you can possibly find, also how to construct your roof. Great work and thanks for the advice!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really like this EDPM, I'm looking to replace the felt on our workshop as it's become porous and the roof leaks badly. The roof is an apex and I think this would work nicely, it's also more affordable than I thought.
Most roofers will slag it off but I'm sure it's because they an't come back and fit it all over again in 5 years time! I've used the rubber on no end of roofs, one going back 14 years. It's still as good as new. Brilliant stuff. Fit it properly and it's got to be good for 50 years! Try National roofing. They always give a good price. And the quality is great aswell.
I was going to say the same. It is really tough. I've had scaffolding on it for a few years, walk over it all the time and it's great stuff. Although mine is a bit dirty when you clean it, it comes up like new. You can buy it cut to size. On a roof like mine I covered it all with one piece. Best of luck with your project!
Great video !! Thanks mate , fuck the haters , I guess they must be roofers worrying about loosing work lol 😂, keep it up I enjoy your videos mate thanks again brother 👍🇬🇧👍👌
The beam fixing seems weird. it should lay on the outer face of the beam otherwise it's not holding as much...
I understand your point. I could have used longer bolts or a thinner piece of timber and fixed to the outside, but by slightly countersinking they are not sticking out, the fixing is still against as much surface area of wood using the washer and nut. It's extremely solid and it's only a garage roof, it's not a usable floor to be taking foot traffic all day. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the feedback!
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE It does, thanks!
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Also I understand having to work with the tools you have. You can't necessarily afford to buy more timber, either because of the time frame or the budget. And I mean if you're not planning on using the roof as a living space and you don't have heavy snow/rain, you should be alright.
Very helpful, good job.
Thank for the feedback.
Good job sir 🙏
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching!
plus i just subscribed you look like a good bloke lol
Looks can be deceiving! Thanks for the sub, hope you enjoy the videos.
Great video. Neat job... Would be nice if you can post any of the removing existing felt roof video. You cant find many where it shows you how to remove them. :)
This was a new roof so I removed the complete old roof and just tore it off so I don't have one of removing felt sorry. Glad you enjoyed vid and thanks for watching.
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE I understand that. For future please keep in mind if you come across jobs that requires removing existing felt roof and creating warm deck roof. :)
great job but surely better to set out joists at 16 inch centers cos osb is 8x4
Yes, fair point, I think at the time maybe I set them at metric intervals then shifted the odd joist to suit the end of the board. It's easy to get going on these jobs then remember simple things like that. It's always baffled me why osb is imperial, plasterboard is metric etc. Joists sizes are often given in imperial but actually metric! But there we go, the joys of building. Thanks for watching.
I don't really like the termination bars they send, I had a few issues with mine leaking so I removed them in the end and just put coping stones on the rubber and pointed them up, no issues now.
I assume they will be OK if you are using it flat on the roof joining to a neighbouring roof? Don't work very well upright though
That's why I ended with lead flashing. Had a weep behind front coping stones and over time water had got behind bar and sealant. Other than that it seems like a good system. Thanks for watching.
Great video, just wondered if you need to provide ventilation to a flat roof?
This roof isn't insulated, the joists are still exposed beneath so technically it is ventilated. However if you are doing your own roof, check out the insulation websites like Kingspan and they provide good informations on how to insulate and if ventilation is required. Thanks for the comment.
Are we down for the whole maconky up there??
What's the existing shlamonka like?
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE It can be tacked up!
@@charlieshooter well f**King tack it up then. Who do you think I'm work for, the salvation f**King army?!!
are you now able to build a extension on top of your garage?
Hi Pouse, I need to do exactly this on my garage. Looking at regs, I'll need them as it's 35m2. Have you had to get regs/approval on anything, and any tips? I havent got a clue where to start, but defo dont want to be shelling out loads on small jobs
Apologies I'm a bit late to the party on this one, you've probably done it by now! No regulations required as it was just rebuilding an existing roof. If you're constructing a new building then it may require planning permission or if done under permissive development then there will be size limits. If it's a habital room then you will need building regs approval also to ensure it's constructed with the appropriate materials/insulation/damp roofing etc. Hope that helps.....even if it is a year too late!
Great video! Roughly, how much was the EDPM for that roof size?
I think 350 for the rubber and all the kit including the adhesives. However it was a few years ago and prices are likely to have changed.
Can you please tell me how big is your garage? What are those dimensions?? I would like to compare with my for rafters dimensions...thx
How are the bolts holding the beams? With bolts like these you have to be flush on the outer face of the beam so they can hold the beams to the brick so the brick does the work and the beam can't move. I guess it depends on your weather conditions and what you plan to do on the roof, but it seems weak. How has it been going?
I countersunk some holes the size of the washer, then placed the nuts with washer inside and tightened onto the bolts up tight to the timber so the timber is solid against the wall. The bolts were solid into the drilled holes in the wall which I tapped in with a hammer. I used several across the length of the timber. It's extremely solid. I regularly walk on the roof for maintenance to the house.
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Oh I see. If it's been holding it's that it's strong enough then! Not an expert myself, but I have some experience with this, I had to consolidate all the floors in my house because none of the timbers used for framing the floors had been attached to the walls. I had to use massive coach screws, 5 for each beam put against a wall, to make the floors safe.... And with coach screws you need the bolt against the timber.
@@isakaldazwulfazizsunus7564 yes that makes sense. But they are structural floors, this is a roof not expected to be walked on every day. Thanks for the feedback.
Nice one pouse, here's one for big house.
Greyo: Dylan Thomas called Swansea "an ugly, lovely town".
Terry: I'd call it... a pretty shitty city.
Greyo: Dylan Thomas didn't do as much fucking cocaine as you, did he?
Take care
Brilliant quote but it's Big Pouse!!😉
@@bp8092 bloody auto correct 🤣
I regularly use a twin town quote when building work goes wrong. So many to choose from!
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE there isn't many films i can watch again and again but twin town is deffo one of them, the Mrs has no idea what it is so I'm going to have to educate her 🤣
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE health spa! AHHHHHHH!
How much do you chargr for this project?
Them bolts holding the wall plate on are fitted incorrectly.
Why?
Is that a cwmbran accent i can hear?
Close!
This contact adhesive is sticking down my EDPM roofing sheet, not for sticking up your bloody noses, right! Buy your own fucking glue!
Mate, its just a propper Cowboy job 😂
Yes, terrible job, so bad it's still perfect 8 years later. Thanks for watching 👍
