I love cake 4/12 pitch!!!
20 plus years experience here.. Almost twice the age of the oldest in your crew. I would smoke you
OKAY BOY CUB GETTING IT NOWWWW
What do you do when you get gaps between two shingles when butting them together? Doesn’t this just happen because they are not cut perfectly straight at the sides?
It’s hard for me to see in these videos but they look perfectly butted up together.
Do you just overlap them?
We are jonesing for some new videos, sir.
Haha don't you worry bud. I'll throw one up on Sunday for you
This taught me much. But I get 12 12 pitches to workwith 6 12 at best
OSHA is watching
Tem vaga aí! Rsrsrs
And the veteran crew is back it! I feel ya cub I'm only 24 and when someone watching always wanna push myself faster but always ends up fking me up one way or another in the longer run. Better to stick with a consistent pace like a well oiled engine. Roof on brothers
Good job boycub! From Alberta Canada! 🇨🇦🍁 can't wait to use what I learned from you guys! I'm 7yrs in but i still can utilize tips & tricks! Good video 📹 bro!
Mikes lines are crisp though.
👌👌👌
No longer Chief Felt Uninstaller!
On a colder/windy day like this, how much longer does the tar strip need to “cure?” Thanks
16:39 dat nail missed i think
Great to see you back!
thanks
Good to see him back working with u. When u build guys from the floor up they can really kill it. I can’t do 7 min squares all day but just keep after it. Glad u posting again Zach. U my fav utube construction channel
Thank you. Let's see one of them 1 sq challenges though. Anybody near 7 minutes I wanna see lol coz that's moving n I might pick something up
@@NWIVeteranConstruction If you are ever in PA I could show you lol. I work for Amish and they don’t want you to film anything. I actually asked about getting a GoPro and filming my day at work and my boss said no. It’s prob better that I leave the videos to pros like you. Keep up the videos man. I love your work brother. Bang on
I’m new to the channel and I’m enjoying your content. When are you going to shoot more vids?
Soon! Thanks for watching
I’m glad you are making roofing videos again.
Where are there safety harnesses??
Boycub=BEASTMODE! Wonder why he was so motivated on that day?
Welcome Back Buddy we miss you
Just finished my roof. Strip slate sheet and shingle with HDZ. I now know why you dont see many 50 y/o roofers. Took 4 days with my 73 y/o dad helping.
Boycub.. 👀 is that you
Miss you man. More please? You are a great teacher. Kind of a duck but you are guys. I really like you videos. I'm learning tons
Kind of a duck? Lol ohhh I know what you meant now that I typed it lmao I'm not really man. There's just a certain type of relationship I have with the guys. It's all in good fun.
When I chopped the materials out of the price then it came to labor then chopped the ground clean up and disposal out of the job. Price still stuck at 400 a square and I said we'll speed on average is 10 min a square he said it suffers in quality
We talked about materials and labor and speed so since your local I mention you and th challenge as it does offer some word wide exposure in advertising area but the $$ dollar remaining after labor disposal and material sorta erked me. So I picked on the speed
@@5050johnsmith the average square is about 2 an hour though. The challenge is different. Are you local? I still haven't turned my phone on lol shit has been messy but I'll do it tomorrow.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction ya I am over in Michigan city ..
I'm working on my first roof of the season too, I'm hoping to wrap it up tomorrow.
Bang bang skeet skeet😂
In Germany we didnt do roofs like this
I remember my first roof of 21. It was Jan 4 and bitter cold. Lol
Same bro it sucks
@@Matty_Saves it's why we do it tho. Nothing better then roofing with the boys
@@dylanstorms8692 damn right
Bundles are easier to move though.
Glad to see the roofing videos bang em out boys
let me bang out some roofs with yall my boss been doing a lot of windows lately and i need some roofs. i live in central indy
All guys wearing company shirts looks very professional .......... Just saying
Saw the video length and thought it was boycubs time lol
Haha dang. Maybe I should change the thumbnail name
@@NWIVeteranConstruction nah it's funnier to think he's still only doing 20 minute squares! Makes me wonder where I'm at now. I tried to do a video last year and couldn't get it to upload. Feeling faster this season so maybe I'll try again
Hell yeah man!...roofing season has begun here as well!
Awesome. May the roofing gods be with you
Roofing is fun, have not stopped since last April, was hoping for a vacation
haha i take mine next week.
I wasn't exactly flying today, using 3 tabs with 4 intersecting valley's!...I haven't run these shingles in YEARS!...had to do a little bit of head scratching...lol!!!, but it came back to me after the first one!...just like riding a bike I guess!...it turned out NICE!
Unless you are getting 3tab for half the price of Arc's I do not see much point. Here in NY there is a 15 dollar difference per sq
@@mrroofman the customer had bought them a year or so ago, and the guy that bid it out bailed
@@mrroofman I HATE using 3 tabs man!...that's just what he had!...I haven't run those fuckers since 2005ish?
i never expect my people to shingle like me and i cant keep an 8 minute/square pace all day everyday. even i am happy with a 20 minute square sometimes based on where i am shingling boycub is a profitable shingler at his level
He's still Gatta learn valleys, pipes, dishes and chimneys. He's really good at making stair stairs, gravy runs and doing the end rake though. Slowly coming together
@@NWIVeteranConstruction you have to start with the gravy!
No one is running 8 min squares all day. No one is even gonna run 3 sq an hour for 8 hours which is your 20 min square. Especially roofing backwards....
@@rustyshackleford1562 3 square an hours easy
yep, i'm also doing my first roof of the season ...
get it son
i remember when u were first showing him how to do this... and shingle... nice nice
hey man im a roofer nd I made a video for what kinda work I do on my channel. it took me 2 full days to tear and re shingle a 16 square mobile by myself. wanted to show my work if u ever gave me the chance for a job.
GO BOYCUB! i remember my first time with a hitachi! lmao
Haha idk if you saw the video when I was "teaching 2 twenty year Olds to shingle" but that kid went from that, to this in less than 2 years and can basically side a house by himself with soffit fascia
@@NWIVeteranConstruction i been watching since boycub started and he wasnt boycub yet
@@Lifes_Apprentice haha I've had that nick name for since the house we first built. Before he ever touched a roof
If boy cub had a little drive in him he could be a beast.
What is more important efficiency or speed? Should you focus on eliminating wasted effort or simply working harder/faster
Always efficiency 100%. It allows you to not have to work harder or faster.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction even in your roofing olympics videos are you focusing on being efficient in them as opposed to rushing ?
@@charlierodgers2776 yes. Anything bigger than 2-3 bundles and you're gonna notice a burn out. Shingling is not a sprint. And anybody who has an efficient set up with some skill is gonna be faster than somebody going as fast as they can on the gun but walking around aimlessly twice the distance needed sometimes, going for coils every reload and moving shingles extra times no matter how hard they work. Just my opinion. Gatta be Efficient and pace yourself. It's like a marathon.
Damn right them hdz seal fast. We usually use certainteed and it’s hard to get in the habit of stacking my tabs face down when running rakes so they don’t stick😂 I’m in a 60sq mansard shit show. Enjoy that gravy train!
Tough getting those couch muscles going after winter
Love the shorts, are you opening bundles with a spoon? Solid gunning!
Somebody been hibernating a little longer then others,I am 6 roofs into the season.My back hurts just watching these guys bending over like that.Drop down and shingle 2 wide on the pyramid.Much quicker and way more efficient... also less back pain.
What do you mean by drop back
And we were wrapping up a bunch of siding gigs
@@NWIVeteranConstruction drop down to their knees. I understand staying on your feet for anything over a 6/12 but anything under that kills my back.Thanks for the videos btw
@@mrroofman I agree, I work kneeling down when the pitch is lower than a 7/12. Anything higher and I stand. Don't like going home at the end of a 10 hour day to my back aching only to do it again at 7 in the morning
nice video, I'm doing my own roof on my flip house. It's a hip roof with steep pitch.
When i was younger i did 24 square in 12 hrs. Roof was cut up two level .
In the florida heat .
My buddy lugged the shingles
I prefer workmanship over speed, just because there are 2 lines where you have too nail between doesn't mean you should be a hack like 80% of the roofers in the world, you have one job, go up there and do a good job, I nail just above the part where you like the shingle up, hdz wants you too nail high so they make more money in the long run, if you do not believe me wait for a few years you will be called back for blow offs, might want too check the pressure on the compressor you are blowing through, if the pressure is good turn the gun down
Why not use feeders? I used to feed a guy and we were hitting squares in under 3 minutes
Not many guys are going to pay someone $20 an hour ontop of a Shingler who makes $25-40 an hour. Rather have them ripping or prepping another part of the roof. I get if a labourer sets out some bundles for the shinglers but hand giving them shingles is pointless on a low slope like that.
Get that gravy boy cub!!
boy ate like a king
Boy club looks like his shoulders are getting bigger...lol you got him working now
Haha I think he was barely 22 when I first posted him. This day was his 24th bday
I know you guys are all young but why not use knee pads and do safely down instead of pressuring your backs like the way you are doing it now?
Hey brotha ive watched your vids from wayyyyy back i have even talked to you a little but how do you cut the shingles with your knife straight and nearly in one cut everytime i do roofing as well and i have the double bladed knife cuz my shit gets dull every time
Buy good blades. I get the husky blades from home depot. Also practice makes perfect
Clarro thanks
I did 3 already and one repair also going to be doing a 3 story building repair 10/12
Get it son!
I will try make a vid on it and post the repair I’m hyped up about that repair lol crazy but yea I’m hyped
How do you bring that lower section of longer roof up and tie it in? I have been watching your videos quite often the past couple weeks gearing up to take the challenge on doing my roof memorial day weekend. So far that is the only thing I am unsure of how to tie in my edition which is basically just a shed roof coming off my house, but it doesn’t go the full length
You need to do a 5 square challenge. Time gets added for shiners and wavy shingles. People can sprint through a square but what’s the actual pace for 5? Then you would actually know who’s faster.
well thats why i came up with the roof olympics. one sq on a straight run hardly factors anything in. you should check out my video describing it. 3 sq platforms. everybody works alone. maybe a pipe and ridge cap
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I know about the roof olympics you were all fired up then the rona blew your your load.
My first roof was Jan 2 lol and we are on our prob 25th maybe more lost count🤣
Can you do a video on ur set up like compressor and generator if u got
One and how many compressors if u run more then one or just one main one
Yea I'll throw it in somewhere soon
@@NWIVeteranConstruction cool thanks buddy finally put all the money down for insurance about to be on my own.. im going to be posting just like you man keep being you screw what anybody else says
What’s the pitch of that roof?
4/12 easy walker
Have you had issues with any of your HDZ roofs from last year? I'm getting an HDZ roof at the end of the month.
not one! i can tell its a good shingle
I have also done many installs last year and even a couple emergencies through winter and no issues at all.
How did BoyCub start working for you?
One of my employees knew him n he was looking for work. Had him come on and build a house
@@NWIVeteranConstruction tell him he gotta open his own companie lmaoo
@@devinmalison no. Lol I'd rather give him stress free high paying opportunity than put the stress of being my competitor on him lmao
Is boycub paid hourly or peace work?
both, hourly on tear off and putting metal on. by the square when shingling
@@NWIVeteranConstruction that’s cool man, I’m paid by the square flat out 💪🏼💪🏼 but I install whole houses myself so I get pretty good pay. Average house for me is 30-36 squares
Where the hell is your safety equipment? That is a three plus story DROP with one accidental trip
Roofers think it’s funny or badass to not wear their rope so horror stories are important. I worked with this dude named “Mario” let’s say, Mario was new he was a brand new labourer with about 9 months experience and I had about 6 at the time, he was 30 switching careers with a new kid his wife just had and making good money labouring. Me and Mario were both told to go get goosenecks and vents by our shingler’s, when we got to the ladder Mario must have hit it to hard or just stepped unbalanced on the ladder and it gave out, reached my hand out to try to pull this 40+ foot ladder back to the roof but he was too far ahead of me. Ladder fell, Mario fell first, hit the ground shattered a part of his spine and broke so many bones in his shoulder and upper body, then the ladder fell. It crushed Mario’s thigh almost severing it off because it had fallen three stories behind him with that much momentum. He had to get his leg amputated and if we didn’t have another way down to stop the bleeding his artery would have kept bleeding dead in minutes. Before this happened it was a normal great day on the roof, weather was nice, wind was calm and the roof was gradual. Everything changed in an instant and we didn’t know what to do, since then I got my fall pro, Aerial platform, first aid, CPR and other courses but every single day first thing I do is hook up. You got people who love you don’t fuck around wear a rope
3 story condo building no ropes i'm not saying this sarcastically but to hell with ropes on non steep slopes. ropes are for weaklings BIG TIIIIIME also i wouldnt roof my doghouse in Timbershart but whatevs BERR MONEY BABYY
Hope all is well
thank you same to you
I don't understand why you use 4 nails instead 6 ? Hmm
wind tunnel test from the manufacturer
we use 5 instead of 4 actually. 6 nails (in my area) are only required on steep pitches about 18/12 i think.
4\12 and 3\12 get 4 nails 5/12 to 8\12 get 5 or 6 but 6 not necessary and over that gets 6 in the overlap.I do not trust that 2" nail line on a mansard .Those dimples are not gonna hold
You forgot about that Gaffney built in super glue
boy cubs nails are kinda close to the edge! gunna get leaks if there any lower
Tore it off on the hottest day so far this year lol
Just wondering what your handicap is?
I normally break 90. I bet I'd shoot an 86 on average on a good tough course. Just finally got good clubs halfway through last year though so I'm only getting started at this stage
How much do u pay per square?
I pay hourly and then by the square when they are in the gun. Square is more than their hourly wage
@@NWIVeteranConstruction im just curious how much per square
That's how I am with my boss lol. Guy use to ride my ass like a fricken barbie bicycle, taught me everything I know about framing. Some other crew that knows him the foreman come over to our job and asked me if I was his kid lololololol.
And 100% on that "both need to get done" crap, chores we like to do teamwork but building walls it's much better to work on it one man per wall. I hate having a guy wrapping his hose up around mine and stealing my tools and like, most annoying thing ever. Me and the foreman can get it where we know each other good enough to chase each other around a wall without bumping tips
yea thats why i said stuff like this. like if there's a pile of shingles on a tarp next to the dump and one guy works on that while the other walks around and picks up wrappers, not only is that a lil bit unfair but both jobs will get done in a faster total time if the guys were next to each other working rather than separate.
Just wondering about that pattern, isnt that a stair pattern??? I should wait to see end project.
PS Is that 4:12 pitch.??
Yes you stair step architectural shingles and the pitch is a 4:12
Wait hold on what's with boy Cubs attitude saying "I'm not doing it" ?
Im 42, do I need to drive over there and show him how the veterans do it? Let me know
He got a lil quicker bro keep the whip on him lol
Yea that was a 28 sq side and they finished it like 6 or 7 hours. Both put about the same amount down so boycub did around 14 sq. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. He had a great pace all day. It never looks real fast when you're not trying your hardest but it all adds up by the end.

My first roof of 2021 is tomorrow. See if I can do a 15 minute square. My fastest is 10. I can't keep up with y'all but I'm a carpenter of 20 years. Lol.
First viewer and first comment for my first time ever.
very nice lol thanks for the sub bud
@@NWIVeteranConstruction it’s my pleasure to be subscribed to your channel. I’ve loved your channel since I subscribed 2 years ago. As a roofer myself for 19 years, I take great pride in my workmanship like you and I enjoy your content. Keep them coming bro, and keep up the great work. And tell boycub to start listening to you, it will make his life easier.
CAN WE DO A CHIMNEY VIDEO ? Of how you do your metal?
I've got 2 already
I understand chillin on a two story but 3?? Harness up!!!
@Joshua Graham roger that!! Or land on the fence 😖
Boy cub is my daddy
Thoughts on doing ice and water shield for my entire roof? I'm in Maine.
I would say go for it just ventilate the attic properly...intake & outtake
I mean probably not necessary if you're putting asphalt shingles on and it's about a 5/12. If it's metal or fake slate then I'd go for it.
Still slappin them down! Gotta keep them boys in ✔, then give em a bone at the end of the day so they come back haha! I sent you a message on the insta 😉
right on. im sure i responded already or just aint seen it yet
@@NWIVeteranConstruction no worries bud everyone is busy! Just a technical question. I wanna throat punch the builder of my house 😆
That's what I was gonna say if you have a shiner on an hdz you might aswell put the gun down and go home lol
haha i had one all day. i still nail decently low tho out of habit. at least one or 2 nails will be real close to the common bond or in it just cause thats how my arm moves lol
@@NWIVeteranConstruction lol we are allowed one or 2 you should see the pictures I took today of a 20year old house original roof guys left about 12 shiners just on the front side 400k house too!
So Zack I talked with a few local roofing company one refused the job due to my own materials the other wanted to charge a rate that would be equal to if the supplied material and then we talked about how long it would take to finish the job.i said mentioned you not by name but by speed and he said the quality would be low.i offered up your challenge now remind yourself this is one of those company with all fancy new trucks and vans contacted an out of state small company 1/4the price of big company your offer by far still the cheapest
Not sure what you're getting at by mentioning me or the challenge. The challenge is just fun and for other shinglers to Guage themselves against other roofers to learn new to tips to improve efficiency. I totally understand the guy not wanting to roof when a homeowner bought materials. I don't even know how to charge for that and have never once had a good experience with others materials. Ice shield is brutal, shingles are cheap, not enough of a bunch of things etc. I'd probably charge extra to because honestly it's better to pass up the headache. But keep in mind shingles and everything have gone up and a lot of guys are raising labor prices as well. It's not uncommon to be at 400 or more per sq on a walker. Sorry about out of towners with the shiny trucks lol find somebody local and reputable with referrals and reviews on a Facebook page and you'll be good
Why do you shingle backwards? You're all right handed an youre throwing shingles like a lefty.....
Yep. I shingle right to left alot myself and im right handed. I put 1/2 bundles on my left foot and go. It does seem faster
@@roofmaster4403 4sure. You never have to put your gun down and your shingles aren't sitting on top of your work so they don't get in the way.
Do you only have Carhartt Clothes 😂
Lmao yea pretty much. Maybe there a sponsorship available in a few years
buy boycub some knee pads before he quits on you lol
500 dollar repair 2 bundles
I thought boycub quit on you
he came back
At least boycub didn't let pride get in the way of teamwork.
You guys should think long term about safety. Either guardrails or fall restraint harness and fall arrest lines. At least keep it in mind for people seeing it and wondering.
Why is he taking the time put to video his work pals and ripping them as there working and he's just on his mobile..omg .really tho..bullying get ..atleaat the man in white is working and getting on with it ..nomatter which way the lad is setting and placing shingles..he's getting it done...fact
He's my protégé. Just having fun with him
Why knee pads when he’s not on his knees bro lol jks
I didn't notice. That's on him not me lol
Just noticed lol
Helps when you're doing more detailed stuff, cutting around pipes, etc. Going up walls with step flashing, cutting your rakes
Fast?? 🤣🤣 mmmk. Slow af actually
Bro hats to tell ya clowns are 5 nailing. .
Voids warranty.
Learn before you EARN MAN!🤦🤦WTF
No it doesn't lol whats with you guys talking about things you don't know about. Just coz it doesn't have a pattern for 5 nail doesn't mean their gonna not warranty me for putting an EXTRA nail. Yes, I said I'm adding an extra nail by putting 5, instead of 4

@@NWIVeteranConstruction ok school is in session for you, everyone who reads this that's a so "called roofer".
So when you search "how many nails do you put in an architectural shingle?
Four nails!!
"Most shingle manufacturers recommend using 4 nails per shingle on the main area of your roof &5 nails per sq in the 1st row of roofing. This adds up to an average of 320 nails or 100 sq ft. If, if, you have high wind areas, you will want to use 5 nails per shingle,equating to about 400 per sq. .
So if you have those pitfalls, why wouldn't you just install per shingle??
That way your ass is covered if a tornado or straight line winds comes &rips shit off??
Doesn't this make sense??
Bro I live in southeastern Michigan & we get tons of wind often,&we don't fucking 5 nail nothing, if its installed correctly, no reason to deviate from what's on the wrapper bro. .#2 if your nailing pattern is not staggered correctly that 2nd nails going to leak live a sive. 5yrs down the road. .
