If only all builders were as conscientious as you guys; great job!
Hi Barry much appreciated have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍
One of the cleanest roof jobs I've ever seen..its immaculate, looking forward to seeing the rest of it. The arrows are great idea for people to learn from, nice one.
Glad you enjoyed it Stephen! 👍
Thank you pete for kindly fabricating that piece of timber
Great to see you back Tony I appreciate the time you guys have taken to mark all the falls, as I know a few people including myself were a bit confused last time with them. Would like to say your forum is definitely the best in getting replies to any questions asked as well as the work shown, you are obviously very dedicated to it as well as your projects !
Hi Kevin much appreciated we do try and show everything but some times camera’s fail being to hot or cold thinking about what to shoot I think we are getting better, replying to everyone as much as I can to share knowledge is really important to me, it’s not always possible it’s just when we are all free and it is difficult sometimes because we all family and life but we choose to go down this path and we all love it and get a lot of reward and pleasure from it, it never feels like a chore as soon as it does I will stop all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
No doubt that this demo video shows us the right way to install a flat roof, the explanation of every step and work practice is very clear, good materials are used.
I'm going to install a new roof DIY, and want to use good materials, I already decided on using Alutrix or a similar self adhesive vapour barrier, as these provide the highest barrier properties, and are easier to install in a neat way than the plastic film based barriers which you have to staple (holes!) or glue down, also the foam adhesive for the insulation will stick better to this.
In this video some good advise was given how to install this barrier correctly, so thanks for that.
Most important part of a warm roof and you boys nailed it 👏👏
Hi denty32 spot on it is the most and what a cool system all the best Tony 👍 have awesome weekend
Great video, I'm just an interested DIYer and I particularly enjoyed the detail given in this video. Sometimes when the tasks are shown on timelapse they are too quick for me to follow what is happening. Cheers guys, great work.
Absolute perfectionists! I bet you never get called back to a job to fix anything! Awesome to watch.
Thanks Roger 👍
I have said it before, That guy is pure class. Great video. Cheers.

Do you have a video showing how you worked out and installed the firings
Really professional job great attention to detail
Thanks Chris! 👍
Top notcher!
Brilliant job and very very well explained!
Glad you liked it Andy! Take care 👍
Love the product recommendations,if you trust and use it you know it's good,that's worth more than any advertising.
Hi PSDVIDEO1966 it’s a awesome product Tom from Rubber4roofs told me about it and I was sold class product all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
Great job as always👍
Awesome job as usual mate you guys are the best 🏴
Hi yorwerth much appreciated have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍
Love the graded firrings. But i still cant understand how you did it. For example if i had a run one way then one at perpendicular at 90 degress. Youd have to bend the wood or have a small step?
Great quality workmanship 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Paul! 👍
One word.. Thorough
Thanks Marc, have an awesome week! 👍
All 3 of these epdm videos are great, especially for someone like me who is planning to do their own! I do have a few questions though. Our rooflight (vario by velux) comes with a vapour barrier attached, that drops down into the hole, what is the best way to seal this to the alutrix and do you take the alutrix up and over the top of the upstand? Secondly how did you get away with 120mm of insulation our BC is wanting 150 :-( I was also just going to drop our ready made upstand onto the top of the warm roof, but I see the advantage of building one underneath first now.
Quality content as always lads
Resitrix👏🏼best material i ever worked with
It's a great bit of kit! Thanks for watching Roy 👍
@@BuildWithAE it sure is👌🏼i enjoyed the vid…and nicely done on the job
Iko upxl membrane al l day long for me . good job this lads not on price .just do it in one piece sole in first then dress into the neck and take it up the upstand in one piece . Corners don't know what them silly cuts are just mitre it as you would once fillet is on !!! rubbing little patches on corners come on !! ...
Great video again, your very good explaining the process so cheers,
Can you recommend what concrete screws to use for attaching 4x2 timber onto concrete fence posts please.
Nice neat job 👍
Thanks 👍
Tapered kingspan 👍
He’s a skilled roofer 👍🔨
Thanks Shane! 👍
Wicked Roofer is Will n his pal. I must say, in my opinion GRP is the best form of flat roof. If done properly their bullet proof!
Hello, do the substrate boards (ply?) Not need to be tongue and groove? Even with the best attempts to screw down, will the edges not moves relative to one another and create a weakness/ eventually crack the applied coatings?
Top quality work
Much appreciated! 👍
Another fantastic video.
Will is an exceptional roofer.
Struggling to find any other links to him outside of Y.T??
you can see why he does all your roofing, that ain't leaking, clean work
Hi sicpac66 Will is pure class all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
Can't wait for the next video..
👍👍
Not a big fan of flat roofs in general but i have to say this one looks superb.+++ Well done !!
Hi Gino you are like me not really into flat roofs but sometimes it has to be done but really happy with the Resitrix System all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
@@BuildWithAE thank you Tony, you too. 👍
Fantastic job lads.. I'm building my own flat roof extension with a parapet wall, If you don't mind me asking, I couldn't see a cavity tray in the parapet wall, Is it not required because your Membrane is running up the full height of the inner skin? Cheers
Hi Rick weep holes are on the outside because of that 👍
Landscaping the roof with berms an swales :D
Dedication,even without shoes will gets it done
Thanks for watching Dab! 👍
That vapour barrier stuff looks like it would stick like sh*t to a blanket. Is the primer necessary on a timber deck that's using mechanically fixed insulation board?. I can see benefits on brick work etc. Nice work
U must love wallpapering
O looks so good.
👍👍
The most amazing vapour control layer I've ever seen.😜 As this VCL is below the insulation, is it to control internal moisture vapour migrating into the insulation, or do you install a 2nd VCL/AVCL to the underside of the joists/light well before its plasterboarded?, or is this a secondary layer in case of water ingress, and if so, does it have a weep point out of the roof?, or does it do both?. Sorry for all the questions, but these kind of flat roof systems are really interesting. 👍 Thanks for the video.
Hi Del this product I personally think it’s the best I’ve copied some info you will never go back,
ALUTRIX® 600 and ALUTRIX® FR are self-adhesive vapour barrier membranes designed for use in a wide range of construction applications. The membranes are suitable for use beneath mechanically fixed single-ply roofing membranes, self-adhesive membranes, felt, asphalt, liquid waterproofing systems, profiled metal sheeting and standing seam systems. ALUTRIX® is also ideal for internal projects subject to very high humidity such as breweries, swimming pools, sports halls, kitchens and bathrooms.
ALUTRIX® vapour barriers can be walked on and are puncture-resistant, with a high tensile strength, which makes them ideal for profile steel sheets.
These highly effective vapour barriers consist of a reinforced aluminium composite that’s self-adhesive on the reverse and protected by a detachable film. Because ALUTRIX® membranes are self-adhesive, they are incredibly quick and easy to install, and are compatible with most materials.
In addition to the vapour barrier function (sd value > 1,500), ALUTRIX® membranes also form an air-tight layer in line with Energy Saving Regulations
All the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE Amazing Tony. Thanks for taking the time to copy that info, and appreciate you showing us that these amazing products/systems are out there. 👍 Have a nice weekend. Cheers
Very neat indeed, subscribed and watching more of your jobs, it’s not cheap but it will last a lifetime trouble free, can I ask why you are using foiled insulation? I don’t see any point, 1 membrane is enough especially one this system
Hi Gavin the foiled insulation ware please let me know thanks Tony 👍
Just want to run this by you. At 3.48min in the video, i see your expanding foam filling in the expansion joint. Looks to me about 40mm. If so that seems an awful lot for an expansion. Ive always been of the belief its been 10-15mm youd get away with. Whats the reason you went so wide?
Class act👌
Thanks bud! 😉
Proper job as always. Look forward to the next one. Can I ask was that a standard cavity closer used on top of the parapet and do you always take both skins up when you have a parapet? Thank you
Hi coops66 if we have a parapet detailed we always take it through and close off with the closer, the Resitrix then also rapes the top as well all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
@@BuildWithAE thanks Tony
I'm on a care home job with a flat roof on some sections but its sarnafil seems good stuff,is it more expensive than this type of flat roofing
Hi Bill it depends on who you buying it from and how much you buy in a year all the best Tony 👍
What's the name of product you apply as a vapor barrier ?
Top job. Iv done meany jobs with no boots on great job noing what doing is one thing and doing it it another #pride in your work. Feel good factor.
Hi Brett much appreciated have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE 👍
Excellent stuff, what is the name of the black plastic pieces used to block the cavity at the top?
These look like cavity closers to me used to seal the cavity up for thermal reasons.
Hi guys stop on cavity closers all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
any link for that vapor barrier please ?! thanks
Purchased from Rubber4roofs called Alutrix
Its a shame roofers like this are few and far between! its the little details that count when it comes to wind and water!and Its shocking, that the sometimes people with money grumble about paying for a good roof over there head but are quite happy to pay thousands for a bathroom designer.
How do you find people willing to pay for this standard of work!
All day long buddy 👍
Would it be fair to say that you have done this once before?.
Is ply ok or should it be osb3
Brilliant video - but Alutrix is not breathable, nor are any other good vapour barriers - if they were you'd get condensation within the roof
Roofing in your socks 😂
Will Makes it look very easy. It isn’t. Very easy to make a mess with it.
Thanks Josh! 👍
Epdm or fibre glass
Why did you choose EPDM and not mineral felt or fibreglass?
Hi Bodge71 for me the system has massive benefits so that’s why we use it now all the best Tony 👍
What are you using to close the top of the cavity?
Not seen that product.
Hi Andrew standard cavity closer all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
Quality
Thanks Jake 👍
What's the brand of vapor barrier. Ive only ever used the stuff like the plastic heavy gauge rolls, visqueen but have been reading up not many using this anymore because theres better products on the market now. What's the difference in price in them.
Hi Celtic works Alutrix 600 made by Resitrix all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE Just checked the price. Pricey stuff it is! But after following up on this product, you can see why it is pricey. Excellent stuff. Will be using from now on.
@@BuildWithAE whens part 2 of the epdm/warm roof
Hi @@celticstoneworks.construct4570 very soon 👍
Hi. I have a question but doesn’t regard roofs. But struggling to find an answer. I live in a 1930’s semi. Has a cavity in the brick work. Wasn’t originally insulated but now is. I have vent bricks on the outside of the house (1 for each room). The vent brick blows into the room and makes the house drafty and the insulation in the cavity is exposed to moisture. Should those vent bricks now be sealed up or replaced for normal bricks since the house is now insulated?
Thank you so much.
Hi John best to speak to your local building control which them to look at the issue it’s very hard to understand all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend
@@BuildWithAE what’s building control? Or just any good builder?
I have edited the post I made because there is some typos because of auto correct.
Hi John
Building Control work at the local council and they will visit free most of the time 👍
@@BuildWithAE ahh brilliant. Thanks a lot. I’ve been told that these houses shouldn’t have the insulation but we will see what they say.
Thanks for your help.
@@designstudio8013 so what I’ve been told is the insulation now draws in moisture through the vents from the air outside. The vents were apparently originally there to allow the cavity to breath and to release any potential gases that might be in the rooms from the fire places (gas or coal). So now them fires are gone the vents inside aren’t needed and the vent one the outside needs to be sealed because the house is now insulated.
Modern houses don’t have these vents like my house has. They have weep holes that are really low down.
So you work back from the low point
SHOULD OF. BUILT THE HOPPER FIRST ASTHE BRICKY WAS BUILDING. ( Could of built the lead shoot ,,That Set,s you Levels / Falls)
Cant beat Alutrix or the attention to detail the roofer has done . But in real life terms its a vapour control layer. You would easily get the Alutrix down and insulation down in 1 day and sheet up. Until the outlet is cut out is still a paddling pool.
Hi G Wilko much appreciated great product and you are correct with out the gully it’s a paddling pool but we have to take into consideration we were filling and trying to capture everything all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend

Hi Jimmy closed cell foam
👌🏼
Thanks for watching Marty 👍
Is just me or have they over complicated the roof fall, just have it fall in one direction and then into one area out the gulley.
Hi Fire Blaster you will have holdings water unless you then do a troff gully but that’s more work and load more detailing more work all more money, have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍 I see Maria phoned Adam pure class
Where’s your safety boots? Safety first
A vapour barrier and breather membrane are two different things, with different performance requirements. Much prefer GRP to EPDM for the top covering.
Hi the tessellater slip of the tongue my apologies Alutrix 600 is a Vapour Barrier and one of the best on the market, GRP great product more commercial it’s starting to become more main stream in the private side because more installers and not all people want EPDM it’s down to personal preference also the GRP companies wanted a bigger market share so they started doing free coarse all the best Tony 👍
Grp is not even close to epdm epdm is a far better product the problem is is every man and his dog lay it and do a shit job also using water based glue which is crap also people who dont understand the requirements over 100 square meters then u get the people who will put a cut in epdm then put formflash straight over it and wounder why it fails laid correctly it's the best on the market by a mile
Way you write EPDA , this is not EPDM , YOU CAN'T welded EPDM MEMBRANE , ITS NEED TO WELD 900°C
Hello
👍👍
A flat roof is a leaky roof
Good thing its not flat then
@@klaeLIFE 🙄 five year with the weather we have and that thing will be like a wet bog roll
Incorrect.
Zoltar it’s not flat tho is it it’s got a fall on it 👍
Did u even watch the video lol clearly ain't flat lol
Why are you showing this stuff in the USA? We have our own building codes.
