As a handyman with a bad memory, it's nice to have videos like this to have my memory refreshed from time to time. Thank you and nice job!
9:30 Rather than cutting all of those shingles of various lengths to stagger the seams, it is easier to start with the first row from one side, the next row from the opposite side,and keep alternating. Then cut off the excess.
5:15 roofers will install the shingle upside down for the starter strip instead of trying to cut the shingle in half. Much easier that way
3:21 tar paper already has lines on it. No need to use the tape measure. Just use those
your video was more helpful than others - who talk alot but still miss important details... they get too deep in their head
your drip edge: you created a place where water goes under at the corner. always make the bend at your cut so overlap is from top to bottom like the shingles.
I referred back to this video multiple times as I was making my first attempt at roofing a new shed that I built. Your instructions were clear and concise -- and the new roof came out fantastic!!
I really like and appreciate your videos. And your work, very thorough without a bunch of gabbing. 👍 you do nice work, that particular shed looks fricken awesome! I'm building one now that will be my mancave/shop, I just may change my design now to have small windows under the eave facing west. Will make for some good lighting playing pool in the evenings 👍
Nicely done on the shed, and great production quality on the video. I am working on my shed now. This will help me. Thank you.
Thank you for the video Andrew, I feel muxh more confident now taking on my first shed roof this week. Appreciate you taking the time to create this video. I will like and subscribe 😊
I appreciate it! Thanks so much for the support
Thanks so much Andrew. My own home will get a new roof this week and I took notes on your applications, so I won't sound like a doofus when the guys come.
Thanks for watching Patrick! Good luck with your roofing installation!
So so good video. Thank you 🙏
Thank you!!! for this video it help me to understand a lot for my roof 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching, David - Appreciate the support!
Thank you a very nice work,and video 🙏💕😀
excellent job
Well done!
Good job 👍
Great video
Thank you for this! I have to redo my single sloped shed roof because of water damage and I see when I installed everything 12 years ago I made mistakes now that I see mentioned in videos. For some reason the manufacture stated to cut shingles flush with drip edge and everyhwere I'm reading is saying you should have at least 1/2" overhang. My drip edge also wasn't installed like how you showed so that was another problem I did. Oh well. Live and learn. At least I caught it before the damage is too great.
It seems like every state has different building code, some say drip edge on the rake of the roof is installed on top of felt
Thank for your video help me a lot..
Glad it helped!
I just finished a simular project. When cutting the starter strip I kept the exposed shingle half for use at the top of the roof (Ridge).
Are starter strips on rake edges not important? They seem to be the manufacturer recommendation for the shingles I bought
Nice video. What color is the shingles?
I think I saw the roof sheathing edge not being flush, did that side of the drip install properly?
Where did you get that seam tape? I can’t seem to find anything for roof decking
What if you have a leak after installing felt and drip edges? Do pull up everything near leak or something else?
Did the chicken coop this way ..thanks!
WHAT PROTEC WRAP DO YOU USE ? i could not find that kind of coating especially the one you are using. ....
What is that on the rakes that are black when you are installing the drip edge on the eve? Beginning of video
Great video. My shed roof is 3/4". What size nails should be used to install asphalt singles without penetrating the roof on the inside? I don't want to see nails sticking through the ceiling. TY
Something less than 3/4".
I've seen mixed suggestions for the rake side drip edge. Your video and others I've seen say to put it on top of the tar paper. This Old House has two videos where they put it under the tar paper along with the front edge. Anyone know the argument to each one?
one method is often recommended by manufacturer, the other is by the code in some states. pick one.
Can I put shingles on top of a rolled roofing
As an ex- union roofer, shingles shouldn’t be used in less then a 4/12 pitch. Rolled roofing should be used. This prevents water weeping and ice damming.
Shingles can be used on any pitch, ofc not always recommended but it doesn’t require a rolled roof
As shown in the video, the minimum pitch is 2/12, but of course 3/12 would be better; all of which depends on local code. Here in Florida panhandle, production homes will have roofs at 3/12 or better. Ice dams are not an issue in the south. Shingles with less than 2/12 would only last if roof cement is used extensively (and probably won't pass inspection).
Is there anything wrong with cutting the second row in half?
Wont a seam line up eventuslly doong 6 11 and 17 over and over?
drip edge
He’s doing a shed, not a house. I’m in Jacksonville, fl. If it’s under 150 sq ft, there’s no permit or inspection required. Some people just want to know how to put up some shingles diy for small things, like a well house, dog house, tree house, shed or chicken coop.
When trimming shingles, why didn’t you consistently use multiples of 6 inches? Instead, you trimmed 6 inches off the 1st course, 11 inches off the 2nd, and 17 off the 3rd.
I thought the same thing when I was doing it, but the manufacturer recommended the semi-unconventional trim lengths. Thanks for watching!
Nail size? 1 1/4?
Depends on local codes. In hurricane-prone areas of the south, the roofing nails have to push through the deck and be visible in the attic. This prevents them from pushing up over time.
it won't likely leak but who knows? after a thousand of them, it's just good practice cuz you never know
Bruh… when did you install the rake drip edges? Did I miss something/anything?
@3:55
drip edge should not be flush with fascia
Honestly.. There is too much to say. Please don't ever shingle a roof again, please. Hire a roofer, thanks.
you should say it
lol. Cmon man we have all seen MUCH worse
Gotta love builders these days that don't use any ice or water shield let alone typically leave off the drip edges too lol People will buy anything as long as the 💩 is shiny. No ventilation, interesting. Now wait for the moss to grow! Lol
Hey Shane - This was actually my first lean to shed roof install. I welcome your thoughts on what could be improved for the next one. More than anything, I want to set people up for success on their project - so any info you can provide to help others out is appreciated. 1 year later, no moss.
@@AndrewThronImprovements Nice work on the shed and its roof! Moss on the shingles is surely a region-specific issue. I suspect the amount of sun exposure is a factor. Here in the Florida panhandle, there would be no ventilation required if you insulated and sealed the area under the roof. Some homes have this, with expanding foam used to insulate under the roof deck. The attic is then within the air-conditioned area of the structure.
All wrong wrong wrong!!!!
Step your shingles and it tells you that on the wrapper.
Tar paper is wrong too....synthetic vapor barrier is better and on the eve should be ice and water shield. If its not rhere you void any warranty in Canada!!!
You people need to stop making these videos. Seriously! I am 2 minutes in and already you did and said 4 things wrong. WTF!!! Your generation is unreal. You all know everything even when you don’t.
Can you tell us what is wrong with it?
