How Long Do Asphalt Shingle Roofs Last?

How Long Do Asphalt Shingle Roofs Last?
Another option for a sun tunnel to make it more attractive, is make it a rectangle - and build a recessed large shadow box for it in the ceiling. I recessed mine 8" high, 14"W - 22"L. Place trim around it in the inside and out. Make the opening smaller by a few inches than the shadow box in the ceiling so you can lay a plastic jaded covering panel. It dispenses the circle of light across the entire rectangle. It looks AMAZING. My next step is to somehow put holes in the plastic panel and hang dozens of different layers of crystals hangers from it so that you can't see the plastic panel andjust see all the crystals glistening in the sunlight from above it! Granted it would be nice if there was fresh air in the room, but you just put the strongest fan you can in there and it truly freshens it up in 5 minutes.
That's a cool idea!
What does flashing cost
It greatly varies depending on the type of metal, the type, how much flashing is needed, and labor costs of the contractor.
I can’t find whether the rigid tube should appear seamless internally prior to the diffuser installation. My installer did it in such a way that the internal connections don’t appear seamless. Help!

Amen 🙏 the main thing is to keep the main thing!! I’m a recovering shiny object chaser, but I’m seeing results by staying focused, perfecting the fundamentals, and personal growth.
Major help. Thanks for not having loud music on the video.
This is cool!
Thank you!
Department of insurance cannot overturn a insurance company’s decision. They only make sure the insurance company acted and abided by state laws. I live in TN and this is exactly what TN DOI told me
Very helpful, Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Sounds like the royal families of europe throughout history...gonna end up with some literal incest real quick.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the education.
Our pleasure!
Nicely done 👍
Thank you!
For a split second I thought you said the roofie channel not the roofing channel.
Some pictures of houses with the different shingles would have been appreciated.
We will keep that in mind for the future. Thank you!
Thank you so much
You're most welcome!
Excellent explanations! Thank you for making this!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanls❤❤
Very Welcome!

Great information!
Thank you!
con: they break when you step on them
Very true!
I have a modular home built 60 years ago with no roof vent and the inside ceiling gets very warm in the summer (vacation home), I like the idea of a turbine vent, I can add a gable vent on the back of the house. the one issue I have is insects, wasps especially they will get into any small hole they can. I'm concerned that the opening of the turbine and the hole in the roof will allow them to make nest in the attic space. any suggestions on preventing this?
Check with vent manufactures. Some come with a cover or screen to prevent this.
Thank you informative.
You're welcome!
i have a synthetic shingle, Davinci. feels like plastic and looks pretty good. Replaced my old broken slate tiles. I'm pretty happy with it.
We love to hear it!
excellent review, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!! Can you teach me how to open my own roofing company?!
What's the best type of roof for houses in areas that were devastated by hurricanes, and why? Please advise.
If it's installed correctly, standing seam is a great option because wind shouldn't be able to get underneath the panels to cause uplift. But any major hurricane can potentially damage any roofing material.
What do you think of concrete roofs that are usable. In Asia, many homes have roof decks, they have 4 ft privacy walls, and the whole space is usable as a place to lounge, BBQ, and gather. It's really hard to find homes like this that are for a family of 4. I only find large or mansion type homes with this.
Most homes in the U.S. would not be able to handle to weight of a concrete roof.
We do have that smell in our attic and think it's from mold. Can poor attic ventilation cause mold? There is ventilation but I don't think there is enough.
Yes, sadly poor attic ventilation can cause mold and mildew due to the condensation buildup.
A simple listing of the largest brands - without any meaningful data / experience / product comparison - is of ZERO value
did not discuss SBS shingles
That's because it's about best asphalt shingles.
Best explanation I have heard
Thank you!
These videos are absolutely brilliant. Awesome little bite-size pieces of knowledge that are well-presented and edited. I've heard that shingles can blister because of heat caused by a poorly ventilated attic slowly cooking them from below and then the hot sun baking the surface of the shingle.
Yes that's exactly what can happen!
We just had our house reroofed and the company no only replaced all the vents with new and better ones, they also put in a few additional ones. The company is owned by a neighbor and he told me he would treat my house like he does his.
That is great to hear! Having people who truly care about the wellbeing of your roof is super important!
@@theroofingchannel Like you, there are some honorable businesses still out there. I always say, don't go cheap as it will cost you more in the end.
Very good video, thank you. Unfortunately we average joe people assume that architects that design the home know all this stuff and also assume and have faith that building inspector would catch any thing improper too but believe me after having one house built in now know you can put your trust and faith into anyone.
It is very sad we can't take people for their word like we used to. That's why it's super important that if you are wanting to buy a home, you have it inspected fully beforehand so you don't have any surprises.
Once you understand the simple process of standing seam fastening the problem of vent pipes punching thru your roof
Super rare a yt channel puts 90 seconds of information in a 90 second video. Thank you!
We really appreciate that!
Very good 👍🏿👍🏿
Synthetic slate is light doesnt crack and looks just like slate, my neighbours cant tell the difference
That's right!
waste of time listening to this!
Do contractors test for asbestos on asphalt roofs before they remove them? I heard the paper underneath used to contain asbestos.
Now this guy knows how to do content. Great video. This is definitely the kind of fellow you want up on your roof.
You are too kind, thank you!
What about ventilation? Thanks
What a useless video. 2 minutes I will never get back.
I have USAA, had hail damage this past weekend on an entire side of my house. They don't make that siding anymore color wise for the vinyl. They said they "May not" replace other than that damaged side. Umm, it won't match then what I have, what can I do? Please help. I'm in Missouri.
Excellent little video. I learned quite a bit from watching that. Nice looking roof too. This guy is good at explaining things on camera
Thank you very much!
100% true
At what point, when moving on the roof, do you start to use a roof harness?
not enough pros. too many cons. if i can't even walk on my own roof, what good is it to me?
When would you ever need to walk on your roof
@@RedxLilxSleepymy roof ventilation got f’d up in a derecho. Kind of hard to fix not being able to walk on the roof. How about a house near trees that might get limbs or debris on the roof. God forbid you had a multi level house with changing pitches. Also… Christmas lights.
@@chrisjohnson2065 you should hire a professional to do it
HOAs are cancer.
This is really cool!
