@@erg4943 honestly hats off to you bud. Your a savage I literally cannot imagine doing that job for 2 years. I just got my class A CDL and this was the first job that called so I thought I would try it out. I feel like I can find something much better than that job lol.
wow that underlayment is done amazingly. I've never seen it like that ever. congrats on a well done job. that is how you put on the felt paper. By the way what is the pound weight on that felt?Plus what brand is the paper? I do agree with you on the GAF brand. I use only GAF shingles HD
The nice thing about the felt done this way is it's water tight. I've had terrible rainstorms pass through on my jobs before with only the felt on & never leak a drop inside the house. I like to sleep at night so I apply the felt carefully as soon as I can on all my jobs & then take my time installing the shingles so the roof is done right & lasts for decades. The only felt I use for shingles or tile is 30 lb ASTM. I think the brand is Fontana Paper but the brand isn't as important as the ASTM rating. I use the heavier felt for shingles as well as tile so when my loaders walk on it or the wood flexes under it, the felt doesn't tear & compromise my efforts to keep everything water tight. Hope that answers your questions. Thanks for watching.
Yes ... That paper job dose look swell to you ... Who I would assume is a nobody ... Mainly from ya remark about the trapper company and the gage of the felt ... Either you have a fetish for sticky black things ... Or you are just a shitty roofer ... A real roofers first observation would have been ...

I’m about to become a loader for a roofing company, kinda nervous because I’m really green in this industry but I know with time I’ll have it all figured out. Any advice from someone who’s been doing it for a long time would be greatly appreciated
If I may… 1. Do everything in life with quality first in mind, not quantity, regardless of criticism. 2. Practice doing quality in your work with ever increasing speed. 3. As soon as the quality of your work begins to suffer, slow your speed down slightly until the quality returns. 4. Always keep quality as the higher priority but always challenge yourself to see if you can do it faster without sacrificing quality. 5. Always be honest with yourself & others regarding the quality of your work, so you don’t make excuses & lie to yourself about speed being more important than quality. Otherwise you will make excuses & compromise your integrity for convenience, expediency & even for greed or bragging rights, fame or power. 6. Remember quality & doing things right always comes at a higher cost to you than doing things carelessly or selfishly. Tell me that’s not what is wrong in our culture today & I will have a good laugh while enjoying my quality reputation among my customers. 😎 Hope that helps you slay every job you land & maybe even start your own successful business some day like I did. Blessings & thanks for watching! Sincerely, Daniel
At that pace they don’t get much done in a day. I work for a shingle supply house and we throw a pallet (48bundles, 56 if it’s GAF) every 6-10 mins. A 32sq roof takes 20-30mins set up to driving off.
Junior Taliulu Glad you enjoyed throwing shingles. I actually enjoyed it too on many occasions. Anything under ten squares I’d load on my shoulders climbing up an extension ladder myself. The company loading my roof in this video loaded 12 roofs per day at this pace. What’s wrong with other companies who’s employees move much faster but do the same number of loads in the same time period? I’ll tell you what’s wrong with them... They do sloppy work & I’d never hire them to load my roofs, because they always make my job harder; like it wasn’t hard enough to reroof an entire house in the California summer heat by myself with no employees. Since I was the boss, I decided who loaded my roofs & who packed their bags & loaded the next shmuck-ran roofing project down the street. I ran my own roofing company by myself for 20 years & I crushed the competition without relying a single employee the whole time. Not many owner operators can make that claim, because they all sit behind desks & farm out crappy labor themselves. Can’t argue with success. Ha!
Duster Dan TBH I make jobs easier for roofers, when I get up on the roof I just walk around and figure out where I can put the bundles because before, there’s a roofing company called “State Wide Roofing” they always bitch about where the shingles are though I try to make it easy for them but other roofing company don’t even bitch about it period. I’m not even tripping about it but I’ll do whatever to make jobs easier for roofers and also to show my supervisor I’m worth a raise 😂
wtf? I used to deliver with a ladder truck in 1990. at least that's what I always called the conveyor. saying it now, it doesn't sound right though, don't know where I got that from actually. but then I went from delivering the roofing to being a roofer. but hell, we haven't seen a conveyor since the early 90s. everything is hiab delivery. running that conveyor was damn hard work. i'd be the only guy on the truck having to keep up with 4-5 roofers on the roof. and the only rest a guy got was driving back to the yard and loading up the next delivery.
man I gotta say..ive been roofing since I was 15-16..learned everything by hand and take lots of pride in doing the absolute most perfect job every single step of the way and I see SO many roofing videos of pure shit work, kinda expected that here but honestly..that felt job was tight..nail placement coulda been a little more on point but the valleys look perfect and even =where the ridge runs into the house looked really nice which is rarely done correctly.where are you located?
Thanks Devin! Nail placement was subject to the 1x sheathing beneath the felt. Otherwise I would have been far more picky about visual placement & spacing. But I had to put the nails where they'd go into the wood & hold the felt well. I'm sure you know what I mean. In any case, you just keep doing things right, because as you say, "Good roofers are extremely rare" & I'm really encouraged to know there are others out there like yourself who really care & take pride in your work without being full of it.
With over 4K views everyone on the crew uses the safety equipment as directed. Someone from corporate saw my video & word got back to the guys on the crew that corporate is keeping an eye on them, so there you go... They're a great company & they've got a great crew.
if he did and caught by their supervisor doing a random inspection which supervisor do. He and the driver would have been fired right there on the spot. No ifs, and, or butts Fired! and another sent to complete the job. That's how serious we take our Safety at Roofline and all SRS divisions. There has been over 40 crew members fired over the last 2 years. And if caught a Division Safety Manager the OPS Manager is fired also.
It may depend on what part of the country you're in. GAF bought out Elk over a decade ago but since then they've been making ELK shingles for GAF in my area of the country & that's what I still get from my supplier.
Would you take a 10 ft. fall from a 4/12 pitch roof? How about a 3/12? You are less likely to fall on less steep pitches. But 10 ft. Is 10ft. No matter the pitch you fell from.
+Justin Conkin You're still missing the point. It's not about me. It's about what works to profit the bottom line for both companies working together. You are obviously not a business owner. You are a worker & you only have a worker's viewpoint which is skewed. I have done all my own work for 3 decades & have been a business owner for 2 decades. So I have both views in mind. It's the business owner who must suffer the loss of workers who do crappy work because they go too fast. I don't need these guys tearing up my felt right before the weekend & have a storm come through overnight & flood my customer's house. Workers don't think about liabilities. They only think about how fast they can get done so they can go have a beer or smoke a joint. If they did have a more business minded viewpoint they would probably be moving toward becoming a business owner. But transitioning from being a worker to running your own company has many pitfalls & one of those pitfalls is choosing quantity over quality. Quantity is good, but quality is better & only those who run the finances understand this concept.
its only easy if your not the one loading it lol... the weight of those bundles vary from 75 lbs - 90 lbs depending on the brand of shingle. oh and yes those retractables suck. When they stop you in your track while carrying those bundles, it can jerk you pretty good. This guy had a good moderate pace, so thats probably why he didnt have too many problems with it. As for running around like chicken with their heads cut off lol... Im sure there is a delivery charge of $50 or so correct? Faster the roof is loaded means you can load more roofs which equals more profit. That is what supply companies want. Fast = profit. Im sure many roof loaders would love this casual pace but the supply companies would lose money over it if every house was loaded this slowly. I can assure you they would not tolerate every roof being loaded in this manner. The easy roofs that are fast to get done make up for the time consuming steep roofs. Just a little info on the matter.
You appear to be right on all accounts. The problem is the regulatory & safety commissions like osha... and corporate of course. They want things done a certain way to keep the corporation & the regulators out of litigation. Hence the requirement for cumbersome safety equipment. It's just the world we live in today & the smart people comply, because they see it as wise in the long run.
The gear has kept me from falling off a roof once. I still broke my leg but at least i didnt slide completely off the roof. However, That safety gear is more of a risk than safety on roofs it shouldnt be required on. But YES... i understand what your saying :)
+NYG Nation Roofline has been loading my roofs for 18 years & supplying all my materials for about 22 years. They are good people who have the absolute best roofing supply service in the Inland Empire. I've been roofing for 28 years... I know the best supplier when I see them.
+Duster Dan maybe you should look into gulf eagle. those guys really are slow. and timerland shingles or whatever are really light. i used to throw shingles all day. some 7 pallets in a trip. a pallet of those shouldnt take longer than five mintues. in and out in 15 max
+Justin Jones so your saying you can throw 35 sqs. on a conveyor on the job, setup, have your partner on a recoil unit like that and drop that many sqs and be gone in 15 minutes? Ya sure, no way. cause it will take 4 to 5 mins just to get parked and setup
That's a 40 foot conveyor truck. one of our four means used to rooftop. We also use drywall boom like sheetrock booms, Knuckle Booms which are the ones you see folded up behind the cab that can reach 64 feet, andwe also use remounted booms which are knuckle units also. Some branches also use semi or 10 /12 wheel flatbeds with piggy back forklifts to ground the material. So we have all sorts if ways to deliver roofing supplies. So from flats roofs to 20/12 roof you prep it we'll load it.
Why would slam your sister division. Thats really sad you would NYG. You do know that Roofline is the biggest division of SRS right? Or are you saying you don't wear your safety gear? Cause if you did you woukd know you can't move that fast with the Capital safety equipment
Why would slam your sister division. Thats really sad you would NYG. You do know that Roofline is the biggest division of SRS right? Or are you saying you don't wear your safety gear? Cause if you did you woukd know you can't move that fast with the Capital safety equipment
+Justin Conkin You don't understand. They know what I want. This is my roof! And I want things done slowly & correctly. If you came on my job & ran around like a chicken with your head cut off, like most youngsters do, without being careful to follow my rules, I would stop you immediately. And, if you continued anyway, I would simply kick you off my job. That is the reality. No one works on my jobsite without doing things my way. Because after 3 decades of experience I've learned that it's the childish ego showoffs that cause the most trouble on the job. Own your own business & you'll learn for yourself what works & what hurts your bottom line. Slow is smooth & smooth is fast when it comes to profits. Anything else just causes more work for me in the end.
+Justin Conkin None of my competitors have nearly the success that I have had over the last 2 decades. There are many larger companies than mine but none as successful & none with totally happy customers like mine, because they don't know how to run a business like I do & they don't know what helps or hurts their bottom line profits like I do.
Ur a lie. Bp of Canada is definitely the best and Owen's Corning 2nd. Iko canadian shingles are also better. Gaf is not consistent in appearance ,they are thin and definitely not the strongest. If you dont scratch them while putting them on they will look nice when done that's it. Other than that they are cheap pos bottom line. I say this and actually install more gaf than anything but I wouldnt put them on my house or any family. They are cheap so the markup is good on them plus all American got to give some credit. Also there marketing and advertising are really nice, doesn't mean there a good shingle.... there acceptable at most.
Southeastern farms I’ve installed all the different brands & completed thousands of repairs on comp shingles over the last 30+ years on thousands of roofs personally. You haven’t stated any legit reasons to support your own bias. The least you could do is give comparable reasons why you prefer one brand over another. But as it is, you come on to my channel after I give reasons supporting my own preferences on my own video & you call me a liar, like some juvenile windbag. By the way, all the different brands are the same thickness unless they’re a different grade. In that case you cannot compare thicker higher grade shingles to thinner lower grade shingles. That’s what it sounds like you’re doing. I know this because it doesn’t make economic sense to let your competitors sell the same grade shingle with less materials in it & make the same profits. If you don’t realize that competitors regularly inspect one another’s products, you don’t yet understand the cut throat nature of free market business.
Well 1 gaf never comes consistent at all. Curled edges etc basically full of manufactures defects/imperfections. On other hand other brands have better packaging and none of the listed errors of gaf I just mentioned. I could go on and on. There book sizes /starter books waste material if installed specifically to their directions. Other brands... no waste. What you cut falls into place to make the rest of the book, also bonding strength is about as weak as those guys unloading the material in your video.. I'm 30 so not some young kid talking shit. Been doing it 15 years and in my time gaf is on the bottom of my list. Maybe 20 years ago I would have agreed with you. Sry to call you a liar but I strongly disagree to say there the best.
There’s no such thing as hard work that can be considered bs. There’s a reason why I want my roofs loaded the way I do & these guys always complied, instead being lazy, doing it their own way & causing me problems during the installation. Who are you to judge the servant of another? Before his own master he either stands or falls, and stand he will, for God is able to make him stand. While I’m not God, I am the boss on my jobs. And what I want goes. My success as a roofing contractor speaks for itself & no blow-hards who’ve never run their own successful roofing business have anything to criticize, because frankly, they don’t have a clue what it’s like to be anything but wannabes. Some day perhaps you’ll learn why quality over quantity regardless of methods is always better in the end… or not. Either way, save your expletives (BS) for tools like yourself rather than posting them on my vids.
+RaidersM Very true... These guys have been loading my roofs for 18 years. They take good care of me & rarely cause me any extra work. They also never charge me a restocking fee for bringing back leftover materials. Sweet...

Because after 3 decades of experience I've learned that it's the childish ego showoffs that cause the most trouble on the job. Own your own business & you'll learn for yourself what works & what hurts your bottom line. Slow is smooth & smooth is fast when it comes to profits. Anything else just causes more work for me in the end.
+Justin Conkin None of my competitors have nearly the success that I have had over the last 2 decades. There are many larger companies than mine but none as successful & none with totally happy customers like mine, because they don't know how to run a business like I do & they don't know what helps or hurts their bottom line profits like I do.
Duster Dan oh shut the fuck up.
Look yourself in the Mirror and GO Fuck yourself
Ur a lie. Bp of Canada is definitely the best and Owen's Corning 2nd. Iko canadian shingles are also better. Gaf is not consistent in appearance ,they are thin and definitely not the strongest. If you dont scratch them while putting them on they will look nice when done that's it. Other than that they are cheap pos bottom line. I say this and actually install more gaf than anything but I wouldnt put them on my house or any family. They are cheap so the markup is good on them plus all American got to give some credit. Also there marketing and advertising are really nice, doesn't mean there a good shingle.... there acceptable at most.
Southeastern farms I’ve installed all the different brands & completed thousands of repairs on comp shingles over the last 30+ years on thousands of roofs personally. You haven’t stated any legit reasons to support your own bias. The least you could do is give comparable reasons why you prefer one brand over another. But as it is, you come on to my channel after I give reasons supporting my own preferences on my own video & you call me a liar, like some juvenile windbag.
By the way, all the different brands are the same thickness unless they’re a different grade. In that case you cannot compare thicker higher grade shingles to thinner lower grade shingles. That’s what it sounds like you’re doing.
I know this because it doesn’t make economic sense to let your competitors sell the same grade shingle with less materials in it & make the same profits. If you don’t realize that competitors regularly inspect one another’s products, you don’t yet understand the cut throat nature of free market business.
Well 1 gaf never comes consistent at all. Curled edges etc basically full of manufactures defects/imperfections. On other hand other brands have better packaging and none of the listed errors of gaf I just mentioned. I could go on and on. There book sizes /starter books waste material if installed specifically to their directions. Other brands... no waste. What you cut falls into place to make the rest of the book, also bonding strength is about as weak as those guys unloading the material in your video.. I'm 30 so not some young kid talking shit. Been doing it 15 years and in my time gaf is on the bottom of my list. Maybe 20 years ago I would have agreed with you. Sry to call you a liar but I strongly disagree to say there the best.
Also no I know the difference in the grades of each shingle/manufacture. I was saying ultra HD gaf is worse than lowest grade bp shingle.
Try that with old fashioned ropes. Totally bullshit
There’s no such thing as hard work that can be considered bs. There’s a reason why I want my roofs loaded the way I do & these guys always complied, instead being lazy, doing it their own way & causing me problems during the installation. Who are you to judge the servant of another? Before his own master he either stands or falls, and stand he will, for God is able to make him stand.
While I’m not God, I am the boss on my jobs. And what I want goes. My success as a roofing contractor speaks for itself & no blow-hards who’ve never run their own successful roofing business have anything to criticize, because frankly, they don’t have a clue what it’s like to be anything but wannabes. Some day perhaps you’ll learn why quality over quantity regardless of methods is always better in the end… or not. Either way, save your expletives (BS) for tools like yourself rather than posting them on my vids.
Way to long.
Carlos Garcia That's okay. Doing things the right way always takes extra time.
Poor guy unloading. should have two guys. Good job tho.
+RaidersM Very true... These guys have been loading my roofs for 18 years. They take good care of me & rarely cause me any extra work. They also never charge me a restocking fee for bringing back leftover materials. Sweet...
Raiders... I always pay my bills on time so that shouldn't be a problem for them.
GAF is trash lol
