For a 30 x 60 metal building that is approximately 38 years old, would you recommend just fixing the leaks or replacing all the roofing screws with the next larger size? Thank you.
Your the best my friend my flat metal roof has tar the previous owners used I got leaks still driving me crazy I wanna scream question should I grind off the tar spots they covered the roof with and do what your doing and it will seal my roof for a very long time ? Please help thank you love your channel my friend Massachusetts area
Hi good video Whats the name the material's for dude. Hola como se llama el material con que pintas la liking se puede comprar en home depot como se llama el material Gracias buen Video hracias por su respuesta.
1. You NEVER cover a hex headed screw with fabric, this creates bridging (an air pocket and/or fish mouths) around the fastener...You must cut the cloth at the fastener for proper waterproofing! 2. You always remove old caulking and tar...NEVER cover AND ALWAYS clean the surface area! 3. Is Turbo Poly Seal a Rust Inhibitor? 4. Always a bigger diameter screw, BINGO CORRECT! 5. FOLKS, always clean the surface area a minimum of 6" beyond the repairing area. 6. The aluminum coating will crack with in 3-5 years!
I am renovating an old trailer with a metal roof. I am using a wire brush to clean the roof to bare metal then I will do as you say. Question: what if I can’t get to the hard to reach caulking? Can I just caulk over what I can? Must I remove all rust with the wire brush before repairing? Thank you
This is the best roof repair video I've seen. Nothing is worst that seeing rain water drip into your new house or business because the roofer botched the roof install. This guy knows how to fix the mistakes permenantly! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for helping me fix my incorrectly installed metal roof on my mobile home. It's been leaking ever since I bought it and cannot afford 20,000.00 to replace it. After watching your easy videos I have fixed most of them myself with a fraction of the cost. I really appreciate your knowledge.
Who is these cats trying to tell you what to do on here? Looks over purpose, those idiots don’t understand your wasting time, and material trying to make it look good..... I highly recommend trying Polyseal 2500, 4” wide 3/4 nap roller. Dipband roll coat screws laps, etc! 😉
What about using integrated - "long life" - screws, where the head of the screw is one piece with the "washer" that acts as an umbrella to cover the neoprene washer underneath: is there an advantage to these integrated screws? The disadvantage is the cost, as they appear to cost more than the standard roofing screw. I'd be interested to hear your recommendation. Great video content, as usual.
Great video identifying the leaks by looking for traces of rust or dirt stains. Turbo polyseal spreads well and goes quite a bit, no need to lugging around a gallon tin ;)
@@FlatRoofDoctor it's good stuff. Too bad it's not available in my country. The closest I could match it was with Sika lastic 560 or Duram 195 here unfortunately.
i can fix those leaks. how about the hard leaks.i have a bath vent that had to be installed right on top of two ridges ,one on each side .it leaks no matter what i put on it. can u fix that?!!!!!!
Some of those sheets are on backwards. You can tell by the way they're not sealing up along the edges. Also they put a lot of screws in the wrong places. The Turbo polyseal and fleece is new to me.
I wish you would make a tidier job of painting the turbo seal, straight lines not untidy splodges. You may well be fixing the leaks but the fixes look untidy. For your screw head repairs a template of cardboard would enable all your repairs to be neat and regularly sized.
Thanks Mr Clean. If I did that all the time, the job would take much longer to get done. I agree for the video I should do that, but the I am not genuine. I want people to see how to get it done without a lot of fuss.
Do you think a standing seam metal roof is worth the cost? Also if I'm 1.2 miles from the ocean, do I need to use aluminum material if I install metal?
I have a angle grinder what size wire brush should I use to rip off the tar some morons that owned the mobile home before I bought as is ouch they nailed metal sheet they tar over the edges I was looking super close on the ladder which I hate going up I pushed with my finger water came out so water was getting under the metal sheet I ripped it off and holy under water 💧 so mad 😡 this guy is a master thumbs up
I would've replaced the roofsheet at once and use 26mm bond washers on the hex screws, I also never use pap en lap membrane. I would have used uni-flash to seal all of those areas if not replaced the roofsheet.
Hello sir, I just watched your video I learned alot am I'm fixing to order some ( they are out of black) .. oh well, my question how long is the silicone good for( in the bucket) once you open it how long can it be stored & still be a good product to use 🇺🇲🦅🌍⚓ USMC
I like what you are doing. I have had some BS contractors out. My dad put aluminum roofing instead of Tin and 40 yrs later it is fantastic except for…. The nails worked loose and I need to seal those holes. I hope this product works on aluminum. Thanks
When making instructional videos best to assume audience knows very little. Explain to them like they are 5 years old. You start by saying don’t coat your roof. Coat with what? Presumably tar but you don’t say that. How about you come and fix my roof and I’ll teach you how to communicate properly
What about on a pitched tin roof with staples (2000 mobile home) ? Also what are all the products you are using? My entire roof is rusted, it has never been coated and it only just started having 2 small leaks.

The old man grunting noises while he works is how i know he's legit. Every old dude ive worked with in the trades sounds identical
Cause they are worn out worked hard their whole life
He looks like Hannibal lecter
No knee pads. He tough.
No he's a South African... He's not tough. He is a fricken beast.
at first glance, it looks like he is fixing these leaks with toilet paper and baby doo doo.

Same here my brother. I even commented on him using scissors to cut toilet paper 😂
What’s it called and where to buy it ? Anyone ??

Sand the rust, use metal prep snd galvanizing paint, oversized screws and a dab of sealant on every screw.
What paint you sir to seal the leak and the paper you also put with the paint?

You are right in what you said. I am an idiot. Thanks for the comment
I hope he makes an update version ,I kinda understand your comment .but I'm a bit of a visual learner (aka I'm kinda stupid when it comes to this
so are you saying there's no point in using aluminum coating??
@@itsmedante.5325 Aluminum coatings have a place, but not in this application. Aluminum coatings have no expansion/contractions properties.

Can you give the local distributor address of this product at Bangladesh. Or is it available at Global Market?

How about telling us what you used
👍🏾👍🏾

What’s the materials that you are using for repair??
Did you ever get an answer?
Bergstrom Turbo Poly seal.

No fix like this is permanent. Only a new roof is semi permanent.
How much toilet paper roll to put on seam?
Thank you for making this video. Lots of great information for those wanting to learn how to make repairs like this.

You know, telling us the stuff you are using to fix the leak would be great. Just take stuff out of a can and you are good to go!
It's most likely liquid rubber seal
Did you not hear him say turbo poly seal. The reinforcing material is like a woven polyester material.
You are amazing
Thank you so much for this and for making it look so simple.
Whats the liquid that you used?
This video was so good, I had to watch it again and downloaded it for reference later. Thanks again.
Glad it was helpful!
Sand the rust, use metal prep and galvanizing paint, then a dab of sealant..and oversized screws.
He sounds exactly just like my ex-husband while working on a project!!! 😅
What about the leaks that will develop over the next few years? More work for him? Coat the whole roof and be done for at least 5 years.
What's the name of those materials he used?? The paste and the paper tape?? Thanks
Atleast u should mentioned the materials used to fix the roofs cz i see many r interested in it.
Who is these cats trying to tell you what to do on here? Looks over purpose, those idiots don’t understand your wasting time, and material trying to make it look good..... I highly recommend trying Polyseal 2500, 4” wide 3/4 nap roller. Dipband roll coat screws laps, etc! 😉
These "cats" try to help others, not like "some" that have so much pride in whom they are, that they like to talk bad about everyone else
What size screws do you recommend for replacing the rusted smaller screws? Thanks for this video and information.
Bigger than the one you pulled out generally if you pull out a 1/4 screw put a 5/16 back because it will bite
Please let me know what the name of the paint he used to prevent stain is?😅
You just saved me 12k..Thanks!
Hard worker workin sickly thanks for the good advice

mucha gracias amigo. Thats about the spanish I know. Although my wife is Mexican, I am a slow learner
What’s the white paper called?
Thank you! I like this guy!! Haha
You're welcome!
Great video identifying the leaks by looking for traces of rust or dirt stains. Turbo polyseal spreads well and goes quite a bit, no need to lugging around a gallon tin ;)
you right, but I used a lot of Turbo that day on the rest of the roof. The video only shows a small part

Will the turbo poly seal and fleece work on metal roofs in south Florida, where the temperature of roofs get extremely hot?
Thank you

Just power wash it and coat it with a GAF coating system. This roof is toast….

When making instructional videos best to assume audience knows very little. Explain to them like they are 5 years old. You start by saying don’t coat your roof. Coat with what? Presumably tar but you don’t say that.
How about you come and fix my roof and I’ll teach you how to communicate properly
What is the coating and white tape you are using?
What's the name of white paper
What about on a pitched tin roof with staples (2000 mobile home) ? Also what are all the products you are using? My entire roof is rusted, it has never been coated and it only just started having 2 small leaks.
