Brother you dont realise how good your little tips are. Well done
Thank you! My parents roof has a few leaks. Getting up there on the weekend to check, so will take a few spare tiles up with me incase there are cracked ones.
You’re welcome 👍
Onya Bill, no mucking about. That would be a 20 minute video on other channels.
Lol 👍
A point to consider for people unfamiliar with tile roofs is that you will come across tiles that are clipped or in older roofs nailed at the very top, these take a bit more patience especially the nailed into hardwood batons ones! So take a flathead screwdriver,hammer small prybar and even some small blocks of wood as wedges with you😊
Which has convinced me to use a silicone quick fix instead as I can see the problem getting worse with my not-very-good DIY skills!
Amazing content mate. This type of video in a quick, informative manner with no bs really helps my brain. I've learnt heaps from your channel, though I wish I saw this video a few years ago when I tried to work it out for myself!
Lol, hopefully these videos will save many people a lot of grief 👍
Thanks again mate for putting these videos out
Thank you, Sir! another very informative video Bill. Cheers mate.
👍👍👍
Mate, just the thing I needed thanks
You’re welcome 👍
Great video!
Great video, to the point. Could you also show us bow to do the one that is nailed by batten please.
Exactly the same just remove the nail and re install one once done 👍
cheers Bill, how about showing us where we should be walking on tile or tin roofs, any areas we should avoid etc
Hi Bill, Really admire your videos.
Can you do a video tutorial for repointing ridges. Thanks
Thanks Bill! Great video as always. Is it possible to just silicone the cracked piece back together rather than replacing the whole tile?
You can use a good quality roof and gutter silicone but over time it will fail. May get you out of trouble for a few years 👍👍👍
Thank you Bill 🙏🙏🙏🙏
👍👍👍
That was quick & easy
Ripper video. 👍
Thanks Bill. I have similar roof tiles. Are you going to do the restoration? If so would love to see the process. Also repair of facia, resealing gutters would be of great help!
I seal gutters and repair facias but never take on roof restoration. I don’t like roof work 👍
@@billshowto have you done any videos on gutters or facias? I'll search your content of you have
Any advice for someone using a roof anchor and harness? What if the tiles are nailed down every row? Just trying to find the easiest way to get to the truss for a roof anchor point without disturbibf the tiles too much or playing around with replacing tiles etc
Hey Bill, you ever done any vids on installing channel drains in the yard? With all the rain in NSW these days thats on my to-do-list this season.
No videos as yet, next time👍
Our tiles are wired down (I know because I had to do this) but you made it look easy with those 👍
What do you mean wired down?
@@billshowto On the back of the tiles is a little loop you put the wire through and you wire it to the timber beams holding the roof up. I guess Its not normal lol, But hey the tiles will never fall off on their own
Might be a roof tile clip, I don’t come across them very often. 👍
@@billshowto Not sure, tried to google it and came up empty, I would say from the age it wast be a rarity.
Our house is about 15 years old, some rows of tiles have a nail through the back of the tile into the batten, usually the row that I need to remove, lol
Thanks mate
Great video mate. Where is the best place to buy replacement roof tiles?
Depends on where you live. There are many companies that recycle roof tiles as well as make new ones👍
In some cases, if the roof tile is cracked, can you just seal it up with an appropriate silicone?
A good quality roof and gutter Silicone definitely works but will overtime leak again 👍
nice seems easy, hrmmm, when you're pulling the top tiles back down, whats to stop them coming, wel, out :) is there a tiny lip or somthing that stops you pulling them too far down? Cheers Bill
That’s right , there is a lip on the back of tile.
@@billshowto awesome thanks, seems like even I couldnt stuff this up :)
Just be careful as some old tiles have asbestos in them.
My wife and I are temporarily living in her deceased fathers house and the roof situation is horrendous. Broken tiles, whole rows slipped, dodgy waterproofing jobs apparently random bits of tin weighed down by bricks... It doesn't seem to end.
Is that how the father died? From the broken roof? Get outta there!
👍👍
👍👍👍
Bro your very good at everything you should make your videos longer around 10 15 minutes and time stamps for people that wanna rush through the vid, and things change in material so going over things after a year is good to keep things fresh and live :) love your help and want to see you grow more
Oh bro, he literally does all that already. Jog on.
Agree with Greg bruv, why would this video need to be 10-15 minutes long.
Bill is brilliant at cutting all the rubbish out and getting straight to the point in all his videos.
So yea.... jog on son.
Thanks mate
👍
