- We are fitting the rubber roof on this one. It wasn't cold enough to be a worry due to the water based glue freezing so ploughed on!
We also fit black soffit and fascia, and I've tried to give you as much detail as possible.
We are constantly looking for new ways to enhance or modify our builds and on this one we decided artificial turf was the way to go.
I think this will be a common extra from now on.
TBH a garden room isn’t in my plans, but honestly, I could watch you all day - love your presenting style, and so informative, not only explaining procedures but also why you choose to do it in certain ways ........, just wish I could afford ya ;-) then again, wish I had a garden half as big as some of your customers. Deserve all the success this years gonna bring for ya
When you look as the work he does it’s the type of person who you would trust a quality tradesmen Keep up them fantastic videos
The amount of information in your videos is pure gold!
The roof looks amazing! Definitely an improvement visually
You’re ace! Absolutely love your videos. Not only you know your stuff but you explain it really well and it’s beautifully filmed and put together too. Really appreciate it. Keep up the good work as all the best.
You have a rare and decent personal quality ,also doing nice honest job. Great Britain should have more builders like you Sir. God bless you and family 🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Genius application for astroturf! It looks way better, physically protects the roof, blocks uv, you’re less likely to slip off the roof adds insulation... the only improvement would be a golf tee or 2...👌
Won't show up on Google Erf .😉
I’m hooked on watching these now,very informative and a thorough job with no skimping on the dollar$$💰💰.Grass roof is quality
“I will send it in, if it feels a bit stiff, I will pull it out” I only discovered this channel about a week ago and love to watch the builds. But this is pure filth and needs to be x rated! I have watched two videos today and both have been disgusting and I love it. Keep up the double entendres I will keep a look out.
thats a fantastic idea about the grass on the roof - can see everyone wanting that now, great work as ever Liam and definitely a sunbathing spot for the summer that
Stairs up the side, railings round the edge and a good women sunbathing on the roof.....nice sun deck!!!
Now we're talking!
My thoughts as soon as I saw the turf going down. My garage is due for a re-roof this spring, and I reckon I am going for this now.
Love the roof. I did the same on our bike shed. It sits under the kitchen window and was a bit of an eyesore. With the artificial grass, it throws the eye and you think you’re looking at then lawn!
Nice attention to detail, very impressive work.
That grass looks sweet. You make it all look so easy!
The little grippy thing! Love the terminology :) Nice job.
I done a garden office with sedum roof for a customer, came out nice. Wins over a lot of jealous neighbours.
Did you add the Sedum over an EPDM roof? I've finished my roof but am worried about falling branches damaging the membrane so am thinking about an additional covering for impact protection. I'd thought about Sedum previously as a retro fit but Astro Turf could be a simpler Idea
@@anthonybrown5550Yea sedum was over EDPM, there is also a root barrier and a drainage layer. Increases life of the EDPM and looks more natural.
This is your best video yet. The detail you go into in this one, with the examples and explanations, is exactly what I was after. How things look, why they're done that way, the closeups etc. I'm doing my own one and this video has gone into my watch later list. Much appreciated!
I'm doing a warm roof but will now try an artificial grass roof top layer too. Will look good from the house at the end of the garden... but gotta try and keep neighbours happy...
I'm considering the same. I have a warm roof design but I'm not sure I can get away with the extra height. I might only have 15mm to play with. I might have to shave down the grass around the edge so it doesn't push the trim up!
@@klaeLIFE if you're doing a watm roof then have you gone through planning? If not, how have you managed to fit a warm roof within the 2.5m limit while keeping decent head-height internally? I couldn't make it work so have gone for planning for a 2.8m height
@@jp6975 I put in an insulated concrete base that sits 25mm above the ground. The ground is getting 35mm artificial grass So when measured it's actually 2.5m from my concrete base upwards. It means I save the airflow gap beneath and the timber base in thickness. This allows me to have 120mm rafters, egger protect 22mm sub deck, vapour barrier, 90mm roof insulation, 18mm tg osb roof board and rubber with trims. I get a 2.1m internal height and a full warm roof. I can have spot bulbs without ruining the vapour barrier or insulation and I can freely run wires through the roof and down the walls. Works out to be bigger fascia though
@@klaeLIFE I see. My slab is already there so I'm building the blockwork on top. I lose the 1st 150mm to encapsulate the DPM, DPC and 120mm PIR. Have to use 2x9s for the roof joists as I'll rip them to have 'inbuilt' firrings (rather than add them on) and maintain the min 120mm on the blockwork according to the span tables. Other than that I have the same except 100m PIR on the roof.
@@jp6975 thenknly reason I went for 90mm was because the framework around the roof to hold in the PIR is 45mm thick x 70mm wide. Itbwas the only readily available size I could source in a continuous length. I plan to build a surround using two timbers to give me the 90mm. If I could have got 50mm I would have used that and went 100mm. I reckon a warm 90mm roof would better than a cold or hybrid 100mm roof.
Love that gutter trim. Agree it must be better than the nail through stuff I used on my garage roof.
First vid of yours I've seen - will be watching more.
Loving the cold weather tips👍👍👍
Using a nail that as had the head cut off in a drill to pilot a hole is the best way it saves time sorting through a load of drills and you get the right size every time
That grass is so aesthetically appealing, good shout !!
Perfect timing Liam. I’ve got the rubber sat here waiting for a dry day to board & the rubber on. You make it look easy & a quick job 👏👏
It’s a lot easier than you think mate👌
The astro turf looks really good. Great job on the join and the trims. The only risky side is the gutter side but I guess you dont see it much. maybe the mechanically fixed gutter trim would be better in turf cases. Maybe you should make a mock up of both and see which comes out better.
The grass does add a decent amount of weight to the roof and if its near trees that drop leaves it will have to be cleared as it leads to some growth in the debris and mould. Hopefully you wont have to clear animal droppings from it either! b Normally when it rains the grass drainholes feed straight into the ground. I'm not sure they would work too well here and the volume of water would just surface drain. The pitch of the roof may have to be steeper to encourage the flow of water. The grass can retain a lot of water if it doesn't go anywhere fast.
Absolutely fabulous job and great detail in the video well done
Highly professional highly explanatory videos and your work is amazing keep it up! Stumbled on your videos now its my go to channel for my future projects. Thanks very much 💯❤
Rate idea pal.. Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Good detailed video .
With the rubber overhang I normally gets all the trims on first drip and kerb then go around and angle my knife up under them and trim the rubbrt
Evening Mr. Griffin. A splendid job yet again from yourself and your tireless team. The addition of the fake lawn looks amazing and I think all previous builds may have this installed themselves too! Can’t think of anywhere better to build a crazy golf course on!! 👌🏼
Awesome video! I was thinking of doing a grp fibreglass roof as it offered longer lasting protection, but this rubber roof and astro turf combo has completely changed my mind as it looks flipping fantastic, cheers!
Just come across your channel, I am a chippy, it's nice to see that you take such care and use top end materials for your builds. Great and thorough work, every steps well explained. Wish you every success. Top man
Thought AstroTurf was a bad idea, but now I'm a believer. Looks great. Now when are you going to show us fitting doors and windows..... there are only so many bases I can watch you do. :-)
The only thing you have to worry about now is a mole 😂 brilliant as ever
Great job thanks for showing the detail on the fascia and soffits,
Looks like a man who loves his job
Great job again, and straight to the point no faffing around presenting 👍
That roof is absolutely gorgeous mate.
Another great video,, can’t wait to build mine this year
Grass looks great Liam, top job 👍👍
The comment about the poly top nails, I normally put my nails in pairs rather than a row through the middle plus I only fix one side of the jointing strip to allow for movement….., I do like watching you boys everything at 200mph,
Also, I’m kinda thinking it won’t be long before you’re picked up by a TV production company ..... well, you never know, and the BAFTA for the most informative instructional home improvement programme goes to
Totally agree 👍🏼
Brilliant as always absolutely love the roof! 👍
Aaaaand Breathe!!
Excellent work as always
A great idea for the roof I'll be putting it onto mine. Cheers 👍
I admire how hard you work as the boss
Were did you learn your trade love watching you put all this together brilliant job 👍👋👋👋👋
Awesome I am going to copy this roof for my garage, I am taking the old one off and this one looks nice
will, did the crew pull a sickie ,you'er flat out there on your own ,as usual great job 👍👍👍
🤣there on other builds, I can’t come off the tools, I enjoy it too much 🙈
Now that's impressive !!! Given me ideas for when I start mine. 👍👍👍
I used composite fence panels for the soffits. Creates a much crisper look and because they slot into eachother no messy joints are needed in the corners
Grass roof finish looks really good.
Well i think it looks awesome i guess summer time a bit of weed killer to stop anything growing and i've noticed you don't ram the nails and screws in you seem to just do enough which make everything look nice and even thanks as always for sharing your excellent teaching skills
That roof will make a nice putting green! :-)
Once again another excellent and informative video 👍
Looks amazing as always if I had to pull something it would be the poly pins offer the p trim up and line all the pins up but yet again that might just be ocd kicking in
Pins were lined up by placing at a 90 deg. to edge and lifting up, using the hammer to equally space the pins, genius.
Great job, finish is very neat and tidy.
Love the grass roof. I’ve just ordered my steel rods and washers to pick up tomorrow. Hope the weather stays dry for the weekend 🤓
Great videos very helpful easy to follow and great tips thanks for sharing
Looks really good with the grass on the roof
Very good video - thanks for sharing 👍
Wow grass looks really good
Loving the Astro turf and loving the work. Already slowly getting the hints in with the mrs about building a garden room from your build packs....
Btw - it is proper stingy to not by a small drill bit 😬😂 - proper Yorkshireman
Great attention to detail mate
What a great lookin job,superb presentation,love the vids Liam👍
Like the astroturf roofing nice touch 👍
I wondered about doing this on shed roof so looks a bit nicer as got long offcut of astro grass. It makes sense about protecting roof also as the grass will take most of the wear and tear so can only be good
Fantastic job, and some great tips thank u. 👍
When ya said, that woulda come straight out but it’s rusted in 🤣 how good , if ya know ya know
if you don't need a drill bit set. why get one when you can do it with the tool's on site. for free which is the best thing about it 👍 it's a good tip keep up the great work 👌
Another great post and top finish 👍🏻
Very informative. You inspired me to build my own shed, so I measured up and decided to go for 16x10 pent roof. But after calculating the cost of materials I was left 😱 buy the cost of timber
The turf on the roof looks mint.
Great tips on the installation👌 Looks brilliant with the astro on there😉
Astro turf on the roof looks the dogs bollocks mate . Brilliant job 👍
Looks great, top quality job 👍
Cracking video. 1st class working commentary
Great videos.Wallbarn make some lovely green roof trays (M-Tray Modular Sedum Wildflower Green Roof), although rather expensive they are great for wildlife! Maybe one for a plush client in the future. Keep up the good work! :)
Nice work pal, little tip to avoid chipping of the fascia goil when ripping down with a circular, cut the back rather than the finished side ;)
No need for it due it been covered up at top😁
What about possible scratch line from saw shoe?
Wd40, gone! We had to take the protective film off to inspect for and flaws
What a great idea for the roof. Looks the biz!! Some great one liners in presentation mate. Out of interest what did the Astro cost to buy??
There is so much crap on tv at the moment so these vids are a real tonic. So informative and attention to detail is fantastic as always. So good I watched it twice.
Grass looks awesome!!
Without swearing it looks f#@cin brilliant sunshine you should be rite proud of that.👍
A domt see thia on your website yet come on William thats not like you haha great attention to detail..think we could all watch q day in the life coming soon👍
Thanks for sharing.
Hair looks great👍
I laminate then rooflines for a living one is called hollow clad and the other a full replacement facia. Good shit most people use it for cladding though as it slots together
Grass roof good for sun bathing 🌞
Very informative Liam 👍
Get yourself a roller extension and save that back!! Carrying enough of your lads!
Love that grass roof
When did Ryan Reynolds get on the tools? 🤣 quality Vid real informative and Top job 👏👌
Looks smart that. Good job.
What’s up with you Liam ? Your not 200Mph today ? 😀
Roof is awesome I’d definitely be offering that extra to clients ! Maybe a staircase too 😂
Spot on 👊🏼
Trying to calm down a little tbh 🙈
Just watch on glueing the artificial grass down Liam as the carpet will expand and contract a lot in the summer months.when laying it on tennis courts we don’t glue down because of this
Nice job
Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to make it. I love your attention to detail. The spacing of polycap nails is something that l always notice. Love how you space them evenly!
I presume you mitre the P trim or is there an angle piece?
Hi mate cracking content & well presented! I am building a garden room currently and I’m going to follow your steps , I’m just unsure on the names of the roofing materials used to finish off the rubber roof . Do you buy them all as a kit or individually? Many thanks
Just solvent weld your joints then no need for a drill bit. Nice work 💪🏼
Looks great
An extraordinary job. When we can see a video with an extension behind the house in your style.
What adhesive did you use to stick grass down and do you just glue edges. Many thanks in advance
Great job
Excellent. I’m now trying to think if I can retrofit some grass to my roof without having to remove the trims
Probably not worth it as the grass wouldn't be mechanically fixed and have no sand infill. The trims would help but the wind might catch it.
@@klaeLIFE not all artificial grass requires a sand infill
I know that but one of the advantages of sand infill is weight to keep the grass down in wind. If you are not removing the trims you are relying only on the glue. The amount of glue used here is way lower than is recommended for even a ground installation. NeoGrass have a good guide online and them recommend almost 300mm of glue around the edge with no gaps. That would be floor drainage. On a roof you would leave gaps at the gutter end
