Another mint job. But turn the music down lol. You talk dead quiet then the music is loud. Haha
Looks great, tip for ya..... plane the front edge where the drip trim is fixed to, stops any lipping from the trim. Kerb trims dont matter 👍👍
I've been in the trade in the Northwest for 40 years, and I'd like to say great job guys, men of my own hart (good tea - good pies - good job and a great video)
Really enjoyed well presented...great!! Can you lay fibre glass on previously applied stuff?
I would have liked to seen the Fibre glass mat laid from the front to the rear to avoid steps in the finish
Interesting. Nice through job. Sound is much to high. I would like to hear more of what you are saying.
I know why you leave a gap in the roof decking, what I'm wondering is does the figerglass expand and contract? If so, do both materials expand and contract in the same direction and same amount? Thank you.
Excellent job again boys if only all the builders were like yourself there would be no problems
+VAPOR thanks vapor biddy
Spot on as as usual stu and kc
I've done a few fibreglass roofs but mine didn't look as neat as yours, top job guys👍
Hey Stu, I'm a Chippie here in OZ. Don't get any Fibre Glass roofs over here but I can see the Merits of them. Good Job Mate
How much was the cost for this as an idea please? It’s between rubber or fibreglass
Did my garage roof , great material but , you have to prepare the job , plan it , and work to the plan . Thanks for the vid.
Nice job. However that is a cold roof. Why no eaves ventilation, mushroom vents, or counter battens for air flow. I do fibreglass roofing and ventilation is very important to prevent delamination of the OSB as well as prevent mould inside.
Would you have to put a mushroom vent for each joist?
Good job love and respect from Pakistan 👍❤
What a beautiful job stu..credit to you & ya' Dad bless him.! Take care pal.!
thanks adam mate you too
Broom handles on your rollers lads saves your back and saves dad been so close to the resin when on the paddle
Thats how professionals do it
Excellent job. Extremely talented. Highly recommended
Back in the days when I used to dabble in boatbuilding it was received wisdom to add styrene to the resin for the first 'primer' coat onto the wood - just to thin it out so that it adhered better.
M8.. never done a roof before but gonna save me self a couple of grand thanks to you’re video. Work in steel so ok on tools, but this is a little different. Nice one 👍
Top lads not like the ones around worksop while doing the job keep putting the price up mate had his roof done £2500 same roof type same street £11600.
Great video! If you ever wanted a smoother finish on the fiberglass, you can buy a fiberglass tissue to put on top of the fiberglass Matt .👍
Would that mean from the osb upwards you'd go.
Resin, Matting,resin, fine matting, more resin then topcoat?
I love your videos Stu ✌ What kind of camera do you use for filming your jobs?
You didn’t tape the trim joints and sand down the detailed work before applying the topcoat , stick to the brickwork stu 😉
Totally Awesome Job, well done Guys. a masterful finish
Hi Stu. I've been watching GRP videos the past few days because I have a few tricky drainage items to make that I can't source anywhere. I liked your video and your approach, but have a couple of questions...
1) Shouldn't you consolidate each laminate layer? It appeared that you did 2 layers together and with the time-lapse it's impossible to see whether the first layer was at it's 'tack' stage when you added the second?
2) You sanded the laminate, which I presume was due to that coat having cured. Couldn't you have reduced the catalyst to have given yourself time to add the next coat at the first coat's 'tack' stage? (I understand this gives the optimum bond?)
2) The chemicals and fibres you're working with are lethal to lungs...so you ought to wear suitable respirators when sanding (!) and use a vacuum cleaner rather than a sweeping brush to de-dust. If I was your client's neighbour I'd have stopped you in your tracks.
Good work, mate, but remember that you, your helpers and your neighbours only have one pair of lungs. :-)
Yeah all good points
Here in USA folks use rubber membranes for this application...just wondering if you looked at that?
not yet but will do thanks
Backgroup music too loud so cant hear the speech which is important yes?
Why would you glass over ducktape and risk a delamination seems like a silly mistake after to rest of the job looked alright
You duck tape joints as there is a 3 mill expansion gap , this stops the resin dripping down inside
Worst flat roof system ever.
You have not cross vented the roof ?
Men of many talents, great video. Thanks chaps.☺
Could you name the products please you used for the roof
Hey stu may i ask, im from canada and like in the USA we do a membrane on our roofs, inwas wondering how long will a roof last with the resin
product has 50 year guarantee thanks for watching :)
Great video. Very helpful
+1fitkbox thanks very much for watching buddy
Thanks for the Very informative and detailed. Im looking to build a deck on a flat roof, currently covered by felt, which i want to replace. which waterproofing system would you recomend.? thanks
+the zayeman1 the one in this video it's flexible to what you need
A great job lads love our videos
Come across this - you were making fantastic content 3 years ago too. Wish you all the success mate.
Cheers mate. I put the effort into every video 😀
Does it have to be dry to put this type of roof on ?
What kind of roller do you use for that?
Nice work guys. Surely there should be some sort of detail or dog ear or something under the two pieces of lead by the lay board upstands??
I like that fibreglass roof that is forever, waterproofing is garbage there is anything better than fibreglass. The best way how to use waterproofing is bury it I mean for example you do concrete slab then waterproofing on top and then concrete screed on top of waterproofing, any another use of waterproofing what gonna face sun or cold-hot weather is wasting money and time and soon or latter is gonna leak. Do it and you will see. ha ha. The best way what you can do with waterproofing if somebody gave to you for free is give it someone who you dont like.lol
Great job!!
Get yourself a blower stu, so much better than a brush/broom. Great for loads of other jobs. You’ll be surprised how much you use it
People opposite just had it done.
I didn't even know about fiberglass roofs. I was waiting for the hot Tar.
Hi, Ive just subscribed to your channel = Would I be able to use this system on metal tin roof on a sloping garage roof ?
My elderly mother had a "friend" do her garage. He did the woodwork and got someone else to fibreglass it. It doesn't look too bad but they assumed the gutter would be on the wrong side and now there is a massive pool. Can that be remedied by cutting off the raised edge and refinishing?. Also it has bits sticking up all over just top-coated over
I cant under stand why it took so long for folk to fibreglass flat roofs
Great job Stu. I didn't realise how many steps were involved, end result looks great.

How easy/difficult is this to do? I’m thinking of doing my conservatory roof. Also does this give any insulation at all?
just subscribed.... great channel keep it up
Cheers
What kit did u get bud?
Is it ok to apply fibreglass over the gaffer tap joints.i didnt think it would adhere
good job boys . ...i do alot myself i use cromar resin topcoat ...anyone else recommend anybother good ones????
+James Carruthers cheers James I think there's one called cure it, there's a few just different brands they all do the same job.
Cure it, scott bader, top seal, tuff stuff etc
How many resin & ctalayst you added.?
3% catalyst for 3 kg is 30 ml & What's the temarature noted ?
Bit late to the party but you make great videos roughly what sort've price would this job cost? Thanks
Awesome job Stu. On the side of the dormer when you took off the cladding there appeared to be roofing felt covering the sides? Did you remove that and then insulate it or over the old felt? I have a similar dormer with no insulation and knackered plasterboard. Becoming a big job! :(
+Nick Walton we took off the old felt insulated then re felted before we put cladding on 👍
Do you come down as far as Holmes Chapel for work? How do I contact you? Have a few jobs. Cheers Nick
Nick Walton hi nick you can send an email to stucrompton@ymail.com cheers
did a poly roof about 27 yrs ago but used plywood still in good condition, but went back to the pvc membrane and built up roofing, first used the pvc membrane 40yrs ago and found it to be the easiest roofing system on the market,
Great video Stew
In the States we use EPDM/ rubber or TPO . Its a little faster process ,but I dont know if it is as durable as this though. I like this.
It's so nice to see someone do a good job !
I am one of several others that has been left with a building site and work unfinished so it's nice to know that there are some good builders out there xx well done 👍🏻
How much did that cost to do?
Great video and great job done. thanks for sharing.
Tidy job 👍🏻
How long does this type of roof last? How has this one in the video held up?
Interesting my roof is planked and they are a bit damp so not sure what to do?????
Nice job that mate. Can you get different colours?
This takes me back to the early 1990's when I worked all over the north of England and Scotland,fibreglass ing all the Esso petrol station forecourt roofs.It was a right royal pain in the arse because we were told we could not lay it if the air humidity was more than 5 %.Which as you will know yourself living in the north that is most days.We spent most of our time getting to sample the local beers and smoozing the ladies.If I remember rightly we had to add expansion joints on anything over 20 sq metres.It was a lot easier than felt roofing though,and I loved the smell of it.The method of laying it does not seemed to have Changed much in all these years.
nice one mate thanks for the comment royal pain in the arse it is lol good job we dont do it daily
stu
Glad i read your humidity note ,im waiting for the roof to be done where i work,owners neglected roof for over 15 years,they said they need two dry days to do fiber glass,lol we in the north too and it dec two dry days um maybe next year,how do you guys earn your money in engĺand,im thinking im gonna have to bin my business now and find another job as i cant see it ever going to be time weather wise to compleate,they put plastic over boards for now and 2 inches of water on floor from leaks,, i dint know what fiber glass covering was but at least i do now glad i saw this vid
What is the benefit of fibreglass roof over EDPM or felt ?
I wish you guys had done my roof instead of the cowboys we had.
Excellent professional job
Nice job but your gutter fall ran the wrong way
How much can you charge for a job like that ?
I can't hear you
Superb job top information well done 👏
Quality work
Another top job Stu your dad leaps about on that roof like a gazelle :), glad it stayed dry for ya !
Whats the difference between a woman and a roof tile?
When you lay a roof tile it doesn't text you for three months afterwards, complaining about your "commitment issues".
Hiya how long does this type of roof last
Great video, some brilliant help for my first attemp at a fibreglass roof on my dormer tomorrow
Good job done I learn a lot from you thank you
Cowboy did my roof 7 years ago and have leaks everywhere, went to get him back and said he gone bankrupt....if you want to do it right , do it yourself ..
It’s ply board and has lifted up producing small pin holes
great job, looking forward to the next brick laying tutorial.
cheers karl buddy
That’s not fibreglass it’s just gel
Spot on job mate, make it look easy! Your old man is a top banana! How did all the chemicals and mixes set you back? Might give it a bash on my garage.
+Zed Man cheers they're about 170 on eBay they come as a kit
Nice videos stu crompton 👍🏽

What is the life span of the fibre glass roof?
Awesome work. ...pies looks good but sadly am a vegetarian. ..lol😊
