Waiiit a minute... I have snow on my lawn 😂. Thank you for warming us up.
Definitely should of used a drip edge all the way around, really helps add support out farther past the side to help get water to run off farther out, and should of shown people to add roof sealant to last couple exposed nails on ridge cap
💯 Both good tips to help add longevity. No sense in just going halfway.
@OriginalBrett610 especially for how cheap drip edge is, it's just crazy someone would not use it voluntarily
@@natersalad889 It's also super easy to install compared to the taping he's doing. Been doing roofing for 15 years and never had issues with drip edge curling like he described
I'm not even a construction guy, and I like this video🫡
Jeff's sharp utility knives are like discovering legendary weapons..
Just finished watching this video, and it's a total guide for shed enthusiasts like me. The step-by-step instructions made shingle installation look way less daunting, and I actually feel confident about tackling it on my own now!
I get the odd job to do a small roof leak repair on sheds etc. I am not a roofer, but I love doing those jobs. Just feels so relaxing being up there on your own making a nice repair in peace.
Another great video Jeff. Love your humor.
Nice job Jeff!!!
Need to chalk lines for the starter course. Usually 11-1/4” from edge of roof at both the eve and takes. Otherwise your shingles will run wild over a large area.
Did you even watch the video or did you just come here to comment stuff like that?
@@anianii I agree with @andrewschafer8986. I didn't a see any chalk lines. There was several odd things jumping off the screen.
@@xmassan20906 He didn't do any chalk lines, and he explained why he doesn't need them in that case. So I don't see the issue with that…
@@anianii "Need to chalk lines for the starter course. Usually 11-1/4” from edge of roof at both the eve and takes. Otherwise your shingles will run wild over a large area."
I think he was using the "line on the tar paper" as a chalk line. Not the same thing, but functional for him somehow. Success.
Thanks for the great vid! Before this, I was installing shingles on the inside
Love the snap off hook blades. Never seen those, and I'd always used (back when I was a teen and did roofing to pay for university) a solid utility knife and you need a screwdriver to change the hook blades.
I don't remember ever putting a reverse shingle on the side. We only ever did that on the bottom course.
Most shingles have a little slice on the top that you can use for positioning the next one when you start a row (flick it up to butt up against the cut tab.)
We used to do that reversed sheet edge in Finland as well but now manufacturers have changed the instructions and instead you're to use a special edgestrip (which honestly looks like a tape roll of sheeting material), not sure why but I my guess would be that shingles won't last as well with ice and snow when right at the edge. Also the under rolls should go up and over the roof from both sides or use an extra roll for it, shingle toping alone over the crown is not considered a sufficent water barrier. Also the sheet metal edge plate should go under the shingles so installed first (ice again), on the sides it can be placed either way but I prefer the edge to be over the plate.
I like a straight blade for 3tab but architectural the hook blades are better I do agree. Thanks for this video again.
Looks good. 👌🏼 Thanks for the share, man.
After watching your give away, the gift you wrapped.... you sir , are a responsible perfectionist.... only downside.. if you had just stuck with sparkling water to drink
You sir… are the PAUL GIAMATTI of DIY!!❤
15:40 when you kneel down, the whole thing shakes. I was like "YIKES!!".
bro only sheathed one wall all the rest is just cross supported to "save money" I never seen that in my life to save 300 bucks.
@@WolfDogNHYeah, I was thinking I'd pay the extra money for the extra sheathing for the wall integrity.
Looks very nice
Jeff-- sunglasses and a hat! Keep up the great vids!
A decade or so ago, a team of us re-roofed a VERY large roof spanning two trailers for a family during our Appalachian Service Project week. We partially sheathed the roof, adding the last few sheets remaining from the prior team's efforts, then shingled the entire roof (probably 2,000 sqft) all in a week. We actually worked so fast we ran the project out of materials. We did not have a nail gun. I was the only one who had studied the instruction book, so I was tasked with step flashing the brick chimney. To be honest, I did an awful job. At lunch one afternoon, I sat in a tree at the end of the roof and sited down the last few rows of shingles we had installed. Don't do that. Looked like a drunken sailor! I ended up suffering from tennis elbow from hammer use that week.
But it was some of the most fun I've ever had!
I would have let the first row overhang more than the 1/4th inch. When I was a roofer 20+ years ago, we typically used a 1" over hang. It helped get the rain away from the wood. I don't know about the architectural shingles, but with the 3 tab ones we used, there was a small cut along the top edge near either end that would help with the alignment, so that the tabs all lined up correctly as you went up the roof. As others have said, you need to chalkline in starting lines to keep things square as well. Your shed is small enough it would show too much, but on a large roof, getting off by a small amount can accumulate into a noticeable misalignment. Under 3/12 pitch, don't use shingles, water doesn't run off fast enough on that flat a roof so it's more likely to weep back under the shingles. We usually waited until a side was done to go back and trim the ends as well. At the peak you need to run shingles up until the tar line will be under the ridge cap, so that the edges of the cap will adhere. Nice looking shed.
This is where some scaffolding would come in handy. LOL. I'm still not a fan of the shingles. I prefer metal roofing. But I live in an area that gets a lot of rain and hardly ever gets snow.
I just noticed that my dog was watching the video with me. He seems to like Jeff. LOL.
I've heard you can use old/scrap asphalt shingles as shims under plywood subfloor if your joists are uneven or need shimming for some reason.
Looks great! Especially by yourself bring up all those shingles (weight up that ladder)! Very impressed and it looks good. I learned a lot and will continue to learn watching your videos!
Thank you sir!
Looks great! 👍🇨🇦
pushed my garbage down once and forgot I had a snapped off blade in there. felt like a bee sting on my thumb, blood all over the kitchen. careful with those things!
much love and great video
Nice work Jeff, for all the people who have opinions it would be more informative if you posted a video with a link. So we can better our work, posting a comment is easy. Getting infront of a camera explaining and showing your work to all is hard work. Jeff walks the walk doesn't just talk the talk.
Spot on. Way too many know it alls that are probably doing this stuff for a living and overcharging people and probably aren’t even doing that great of a job.
I love this man's laugh. lol
me too..
you probably could have used GAF ice and water peel and stick for $80 and did the whole roof. In a snow zone with that pitch of roof you would want that anyways. Just my opinion tho.
Wow! you explain each step in a way that's easy to understand and the visuals really help. This video is a must-watch for anyone tackling roofing projects.
As always great video You are the go to guy when I want to learn anything DIY which is every week. Please keep up the great work and videos. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Not bad for a DIY job!
Great video! Your videos have popped up in my feed and I've watched quite a few of them. Just subbed and 👍! Keep up the great DIY stuff. Just bought a home a year ago so I like this kind of stuff.
Beautiful !
Putting a drip edge allows you to have something to tuck under if you decide you want to clad your fascia in metal or put gutters later.
Where’s Matty at?! Darn guy probably havin a nice cold one in a recliner. 😂
For the typar and roll lining wouldn't water get in where the staples and nails are?
next time bring a scrap 1x10 or 1x12 you can lay the shingles on to cut instead of trying to cut them mid air. it helps a lot and you can even put a framing square down for nice square cuts along the blade.
could improvise a 2x4 crane with pulleys to hoist materials to roof not carrying on ladder
22:20 Under 4:12 you may want to check if your product requires more underlayment/prep or, if some type of membrane system's recommended.
anything can be a hammer unless its a screwdriver. then its a chisel.
Jeff question? I actually really like steel roofing. Why wouldn't you consider steel or do you not mind? I think its simple and less risk. And a lot more durable. A dabb of calke on the screws will save the rubber on the screws as long as it holds up. There are fewer fasteners. It holds up to heat better if painted white. Even the fasteners can be preserved with paint.
Just need a solid arrangement here on that.
Price or quality. Maybe it's just the installation that's a nightmare? I have a fairly simple roof.
Just FYI... The top of the shingles have tiny slits to bump the next row so you get an even spacing without measuring.
Are there really that many crickets?
00:11:05 Buck and Rope !
Can you replace individual shingles without taking the whole thing down?
Yes. You use a skinny spatula to pull the nails
Yes, use a pry bar to take the shingles out and replace with like color shingle. If it's an old roof you'll have trouble color matching because roof color fades.
Florida stopped allowing us to do low pitch 2 /12 or 3/12 pitch. There used to be shingles just for that! Now
You have to do rolled roofing !
What kind of shingles can you use? I don’t think u can even get a 25 lb here. Most people get the over 30 lb shake look. Most people don’t really understand that it’s the underpayment that really protects the roof , especially tile roofs that are for looks and expensive to fix even if u have someone who is a pro on walking on them without breaking any:-) some still break! Gail
Thors stapler. Didn’t know that was a thing
All these critics say so much its a shed let the man do it in the way he wants to
Curious, why not use Ice and Dam instead of just roofing paper. And, no drip edge? I know your doing this on the cheap. But, having a roof fail on any application sucks. Speaking from experience. I did my first roof on the cheap. Lucky for me in was on a 14 x 10 shed and the tear off and repair was painful and expensive.
I live in MN and the climate is much like yours. I say spend a little more and have less to worry about in the future... and ice and dam paper lessens leaks if installed correctly. I would even put 2 roof vents on the back half not seen by the house. I am jealous of that nailer. Had to do mine by hand...
Still nice work and Thank You :)
Ice and water is probably not necessary because it’s unheated space. So ice dam won’t really be an issue.
Because it's a shed and the pitch is enough where you really don't need ice and water guard. I would've done a synthetic underlayment instead of tar paper but it works for his project.
Hand nailed will always be better than nail guns anyway, most "roofing companies" don't even set the pressure correctly and half the nails go through the shingle or hit a crack
Joist tape 1:16 I wonder if you will use ice & water protection (pretty sure if you do you won’t need joist tape)
Can you post a material list on this shed build?
Did a fine job for and OLD guy lol
what if you redguard your sheathing
those shingles would just melt in Australia!! great video though.
I have these shingles ........and I am in Australia!, They work great on my shed........
Everybodys talking about code this and that. Its a shed, who cares. If it still looks good in 20 years I guess he was right.
Anyways I tend to like this guy the way he does things. Never has he steered me in the wrong direction.
5 nails per shingle is a lot more robust than the 3 they used on my house 😂
too many nails more chance fore weakness 3 is good coastal areas seal them down
Hey Jeff, don't you use the roofing nails with the big plastic washers there in Canada?
down in the south east US i only see regular nails and the plastic washer things i sometimes see for the tarpaper instead of staples. unless they actually do make washer type nails for a nail gun specific for shingles.
I never heard of that, I thought those were for foam on the exterior walls.
called capnails. They use those here in Texas.
Usually those are only used for the underlayment, he uses the stapler instead. Inch and a quarter are pretty standard for asphalt shingles.
Some tips, when you cut shingles dont cut from the front, always the back, it's way easier. Straight blade for underlayment, butterfly blade for shingles, hook blade for valleys and edges, Drip edge instead of the weird tape you used, pay the little extra for the synthetic underlayment vs the tar paper way better product. Do an inch over the edge, 1/4in is cutting it too close. Would've used a piece of flashing to redirect water away from the doorway since you don't have gutters. Chalk a line for your capping, will make your life easier. 4 nails per shingle is plenty if you dont live where hurricanes or high wind comes in. Caulk off your nails at the end of your capping.
Otherwise not a bad diy for a shed. I dont recommend people who dont know how to roof do their own house though lol in terms of brands I recommend Owens Corning, GAF, or Tamko. Don't buy IKO or other super cheap shingles they're straight garbage.
Source: me being a roofer for 15ish years that still hand drives shingles
My husband did too since he was 13 did roofing with his Dad! . He could do anything except a lot is common sense esp where leaks come in and he would always draw pic for me and ask “where would u think the leak is coming from I know water travels But the repair guys never seemed to figure that out🤷
The poor brown fuzzy caterpillar fell off the edge of the roof at 28:05 trying to find a new home under the shingles...
Isn't that slope below the minimum for shingles?
" the ministry rules" lol
Why didn't you cut a bird perch on the end of the rafters?
At home it’s “Safety third” lol
Hey quick question. Have you ever used roof silicone paint? The brand "Marlin Coatings" specifically.
I have a roof, it's up in age, and it's leaking everywhere all the sudden. The shingles are still good enough and still flexible, but the roof leaks. To replace everything seems too much work for no good reason. The shingles are good, they are already there, but they leak through the nails that hold them in place.
My thoughts are to change the color of my roof from shingle black to silicone tan, and fix a butt load of problems in the process, starting with the leaks then ending with,,, well tan color I guess.
Point is question is, have you any experience with this silicone paint?
Cheers 🍻
I'm confused. No drip edge, ok but no starter strips? Sealed ridge, no soffit. just cut pieces. Just a shed but a soffit gives the protection, ventilation and would allow you add a simple rain chain.
The 3-tab shingles were his starter strip. That was the purpose of them.
@@tay13666 The 3-tab should be ripped in half so you get adhesive at the edge otherwise it can lift. Edges too, not just the bottom. You can buy strips if you don't want to make all the cuts.
29.05 your rows look pretty good but your ridge cap might have benefitted from snapping a chalk line on front. Overall decent appearance. Shingles are clearly a budget brand but meeeh, it’s a shed
speed comes from experience, and experience comes from practice. I've seen professionals who are fast but do a poor job, no shame in working at your own pace.
Agreed. Took me a summer (part time) to reroof my house. I’m slow but that roof isn’t going to leak and nail placement was always in the nail strip, correct position. Way better than the “professional” installation I was replacing.
Am I the only one who finds the added nature sounds in all the outdoor videos a bit too distracting? Other than that, always interesting videos. Thanks.
8:12 this is what the son is for.
I’ve seen 5 foot 1, 115 lb Hispanic dudes carry three packs of shingles up on 1 shoulder - and this guy almost died with 1 lol 😂
22:22 you should NOT nail within 6inches to the edge of the shingle, those are all potential leaks - anywhere two shingles have a butt joint, water WILL work its way into the crack and up under the shingles… if there’s a nail hole two close to that butt joint it can leak… if you absolutely have to put a nail there, use a tiny piece of ice and water barrier either under the nail or even over the nail to seal out water
Seems easier just to use a metal roof🤔
Traditionally you start from left to right. But , have seen it done right to left. Just saying; not finger pointing but I own my own Roofing and construction company. it works though. starter strips is now the way to start out with and a short piece to help offset the shingles.Sorry but I am picky - lol.Five nail is what we do here also. Felt paper is old school for sure. Synthetic is their new way - more expensive but really good.
left to right as in standing on the ground looking at the roof or standing on the roof and looking down at the ground? And also is there a specific reason for this? do the patterns come together better or something on specialty shingles?
I'm going to guess that most people are right-handed.
The sound of the bugs in the video and the sound of the bugs outside my window are going in-and-out of sync with each other and it's kind of freaking me out.
The pitch of the roof doesn't seem sufficient to use shingles. Perhaps a rubber membrane, metal, or torched roof would be better.
Why not a metal roof, wouldn't that have been better?
you are achieving a nice look but functionally the roof design is flawed. For example, when it rains heavily you will have to walk through a waterfall to enter through the front door, also the ground in front of the shed will be eroded creating a ditch and making the area outside the entrance muddy. You should have made the roof slope to the sides of the building.
Or he can just add some gutters. With the size of that shed, he can buy some of the shelf gutters to just add to the build. Not a big problem
@@loichockey1don't even need to do gutters, you can take some prices of flashing and redirect water away from the door way. Cost nothing and takes only a few minutes to install
Don't you have to take off the cellophane strips that cover the asphalt cement on the back of the shingles? You likely know better than I but I have seen them removed before. Just asking for reference. Not being a CZcams "expert"
Mark my word, if they won’t deliver the shingles on the roof, get someone younger to carry them up. My husband used to carry a square on his shoulders and he was only in his early 50’s when shoulders were replaced , knees, hips , so take it easy now. You won’t be this age forever!
I know this is a shed but on homes do u our metal under or over the valleys?
Jeff must age backwards. I could have sworn he said that, at his age, he would not get on a roof.... I guess he figures he has 3,000,000 subscribers now, so what the heck....
«>>> Great video! I really do have a question.
For someone with less than $5,000 to invest, how would you recommend we enter the crypto market? I am looking at studying some traders and copying their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally. What's your take on this approach?
Going into the trading world without the help of a PROFESSIONAL, trader and expecting profit is a 0.5% chances of win rate, that's why i trade with Mrs, Karen Gaye Gray her skills set is exceptional.
I'm surprised you know her too; I've been making a lot of profit investing with her for the past few months.
Wow amazing to see others trading with Mrs, Karen Gaye Gray. i am currently making my 5th trade with her and my profolio as grown tremendously.
This is not the first time i am hearing of this woman and her exploit trading world but i have no idea on how to reach her?
She often interacts on telegrams, and Instagrams using the user name mentioned Below.
H&S comment, never work backwards towards a 'hole" or edge, face your obstacles that way you can see them coming. same reason when you see professional movers they are rarely going backwards. Obviously you are highly experienced on working in dangerous situations, but the majority of youtube watchers are not.
WOW, what a SMART way to do it. And save a HELL of a lot of time. You didn't say what weight of paper you were using ?. Also, it would have been nice if you had the camera man on the roof, with a downward shot on what you were doing. Also, shouldn't you be wearing a HAT, don't want to see you get Skin Cancer later on in life.
Should have drip edge at eve first, felt goes over eve drip edge and under the rake pieces of drip edge. If the roof is a 3/12 or less must have ice and water on entire roof surface. Also shingles should not be installed in less then a 3/12 period.
As a woman I even noticed no drip edge that we always installed on our shed
Have any videos on how to do this?
Just look roofing videos
No one cares Jeff,it looks good.More importantly I’m sure it won’t leak.
😊😊
Who edited this? What a random start. I'm instantly lost... skip
“It’s just a shed!” And the way you did the roof is probably ok. But you have also mentioned several times that viewers can learn from this to do the roof on their home. Don’t say that please. You are missing some very important steps that are needed on a heated structure. I have training certification from GAF, their specs must be followed for the warrantee to be honored. Heated homes need ridge ventilation, soffit vents, (can’t do that if no soffits) ice and water shield 3’ or past the line where it is over heated space, (but NOT over the whole roof) drip edge required, etc. Don’t do your home roof this way. There’s more. That said, there are plenty of cheap roofers who take many of these shortcuts. They can’t even SPELL warra…..I mean werren…..guerinty………aw heck……..
The work was just fine IMO but the shingles themselves look like absolute garbage. If you are paying for the expense of supplies already, it's worth the extra money for a better looking on top of quality product. The architectural shingles makes it look like you missed every other one.
This guy is a bit of a goof. I’m not sure he’s the best person to emulate.
Angle of filming is not the greatest. Hard a hard time seeing what you were doing. Not very detailed
Horrible camera angle. Are we supposed to see your work?!
😂😂😂 u can tell u don't do roofs.
Good to see old school, Felt, what weight 15lb or 30lb u using.
2 man job, fasten the corner, roll out, line up and fasten.
Stainless Staples?
U need to mention Guageing your shingles, the gun should have a Guage and or a Roof hammer, and the Shingles should have a mark.
And, u use your cut offs on the other end.
I did notice at start of video, the right edge is crooked, use another Shingle as a guide.
Shingle coverage= 10'x10'=100sgft, 3 Tab takes 3 bundled, Architectural 4 bundles.
Not all dimensional shingles are 4 bundles to a square. But the tar paper takes me back more than 10 years ago lol
Sorry man, you really have no idea of this job.
Wrong! Your first step should ALWAYS be - letting everyone know what your pronouns are.
This is why I don’t DIY. I could probably get it done but it won’t look right and it’ll probably leak. I guess when you’re flipping you don’t care
Its a shed bro. That roof job is plenty.
That attitude is partially what's wrong with the housing market.
