NEW ONE SQUARE CHALLENGE! check it out czcams.com/video/0FwlbCb-hXo/video.html
Coming for that record
Just started roofing a couple months ago... I’ve been in construction for years but was told I am above the average for roofing and am pushing forward for having this career for several years! It is the hardest job (physically) as of right now in my life! Much respect and I noticed you don’t use your gauge... just your water mark ! Impressive sir 💪🏼
I bought this nail gun as we were planning to renew all the fencing in our back garden. As this involved 19 double slatted fence panels, 10 of which needed to be cut down in size, we knew there would be a need for a great czcams.com/users/postUgkxHQsUrwNr5GQrnx9V4xDdUr56qxwuiBHt deal of re-stapling the wooden slats to the wooden framework. Each alteration required the re-stapling of 62 wooden slats with double staples. Prior to starting the work we ordered sufficient additional staples as per the instructions with the gun.The gun performed fantastically throughout the entire project with no jams of misfires. The adjustable power was excellent allowing the staples to be fired into the 8mm slats to the correct depth. For the price paid this was a bargain and it proved itself to be so reliable and versatile making an arduous task much quicker and professional. I cannot recommend this product highly enough and it will be used on many other projects in the future.
Love how you keep it real and show people that you practice what you preach. I agree with you that quality is key. Keep spreading your knowledge. It not only helps the pros but also really helps the average do it yourselfers.
Happy haircut boss! I’m do for a trim myself. I love that sound tap, tap tap tap, tap. High kick!
thanks bud
Man i am a carpenter that does roofs......but after watching your channel.....i am no roofer! Love your vids man. Entertaining and skilled, awesome stuff.
awesome! I wish carpentry was my first trade. I believe its the best base trade. glad you enjoy!
You're making my customers question my speed. Close this channel!!
:)
Haaaaha never
Awesome ! Great job, i like how you told the truth at the end that normally the pace is way slower. Keep rockin, be safe!
yessir thank you for watching
Ive noticed others drop there gun every time where you never let go of yours , that’s where you hold the advantaged I believe. Nice job.
thank you I feel that way as well but there's so much other stuff that plays a factor. they can still set the gun down and compete.
Worlds Fastest Shingler is all about intensity. And focus.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction damn near straighter when u line it up with the gun as well
@@saul5499 quality's first but 100 percent
lmfao, you've never seen a speed demon shingle. this is VERY average as for speed.
Hey bro been watching your videos I have been doing construction for 17 years, roofed for 2 years. That's grown man work your a beast people don't realize how tough your job is. Would love to work with you for week lol. Keep it up beast mode. Go Hawks.
So to be faster is it all about finding the most efficient way of doing it ? Also should you try and move faster ? Or do you just keep a steady pace thanks
So this is why the solar panels I install never look straight 😂😂
having a nice flat pitch roof like that to work on makes it a bit easier to line them up like that but good job, that was fast
At 60 years old and watching you shingle like that gets my heart pumping as a roofer
. I love putting shingles down...nothing better man, keep on keeping on brotha.
That's awesome! I'm glad you enjoy!
I did my own roof solo, including stripping, prepping, tar papering, shingling, and carrying everything up the ladder. At age 75, I had a sore back for over a month, but I saved myself $16,000 compared what the lowest estimate I got that would have used the cheap three shingles. I used architectural shingles for my windy area would I ever do it again if I moved to a different place? No way in hell. I'd be crazy to.
@@douglasrodrigues9329 16 grand? Damn. How many bundles? 160 ?!
@@douglasrodrigues9329Age 75!?!? Salute to you sir! Doing a roof by yourself at any age is tough but you my friend are a roof god! God bless ya sir!
I can't wait to get up on the roof again, starting my first job in the first week of april.
Whats the time to beat? i did 1 sq in 5:45 just want to know if it is worth doing it again to get it on video
Your the man!!! I have learned so much from watching your videos!
Glad to help
I love the smell of asphalt in the morning
Im going to do this on monday. See what my boss says haha. Happy holidays!
did you ever do it?
Holy spirit fire! Whether eating or drinking do all things to the glory of God! Shingling included!! Nice vid bro.. Really good and good quality!
Not bad man, Quality is always first, I respect that. If you wanted to try things a bit different to help speed you up you could try leaving your bundles on a 45 up the climb and having half a bundle on your left foot so that as you walk up your carrying your bundle up with you, as well after your first nail turn your gun sideways to put the rest of the nails in which will help speed and avoiding high nails.
Great work man! Nice haircut by the way looking sharp!
lol thanks it was a quarantine self cut.
I look like sideshow bob... more then 2 months without a haircut....fuckin bullshit politicians
Great video! Great technique!
Glad you liked it! thanks
It looks and sounds good and also looks like it's taking a toll on your body just like Roofing I get it for about 6 years now there's no money in it so I don't do it anymore
Idk anything about roofing but just curious if there is reasoning behind the spacing on the nails? looked like you put one to the right and the other 4 were biased towards the left of the shingle.
Don't want a nail in the seam where 2 shingles butt together. Nice attention to detail
Nice job. I thought you said that you cannot nail and place the shingles at the same time. The wife and I cannot get enough of you channel. Se can see exactly what I have gone through the last 25 plus years.
i'm glad you guys enjoy! and what do you mean I said that?
Worlds Fastest Shingler I thought that you had said that you were not comfortable laying shingles like that
I don't know if anyone else has mentioned in the comments or not, but if your a four or six nailer that's a slight advantage/disadvantage too. I think if this gets any bigger, you might have to add different zones, for champs. I love the idea but there just isn't a way to figure out who is fastest without everyone installing under the same rules. I'm sure you'll have everything in place for the roof olympics 😉
Good work but I can definitely beat you on roofing a square lol
Nothing but respect for you buddy
I appreciate it thanks.
Do you have any roll roofing vids?
i can never fo what you do
hats off to you!
100% quality and speed like the flash wow
thanks man its not that bad!
Worlds Fastest Shingler u should come to florida and reroof mine lol
Me and my parents have done roofing for the last 25 30 years and when they put the architectural shingles on we always step one back. They do not run them on a six inches bar line. Can I ask you why to explain why your running on a six inch bar line?
Whatre you talking about dude its a 8 inch stagger with archs
If your saying it stagger in the center of the shingle like 3 tab your not very bright
I did metal today thought bought shingles all day though thanks for rubbing it in and posting this while I was on the roof today. Do u ever do metal roofs? Good vid u can still go faster. Get that cardio in man
yea maybe by just a little bit. and I do them occasionally but not real metal roofs. only like big ass pole barns where they don't want hidden fasteners and all that jazz. those are easy money.
When do we see more of the flip house ?!?
Zack of all trades!! Nice work brotha, i do roofing it's a tough job, what vitamins and foods do you eat to stay healthy grinding making that $$$?
I rememeb the old boys th3 siders would say that's a young bulls game ( roofing) I'm 32 now been doing since 21) any tips. maybe a video?
Don't eat burger King and subway religiously for 9 years in the trade. That's what I do lol my body is ready to go any minute.
You should open a roofing school as a trade school. It is a specialized field of construction which obviously you’ve mastered. Which speed and accuracy being in the forefront of a successful business your profit margin will soar as time is money and money is time. Refining and honing ones skill set is what makes one a master craftsmen.
Beast mode... Congrats man way to push yourself and inspire others to be better... I can't wait to see if anyone can beat this..
it would be impressive! I decided today after doing this, I don't think anybody can possible do this any faster than 5:50 without sacrificing quality...maybe with the HDZ's they can get near 5:30 but idk...we're getting to limit here on the #onesquarechallenge. thank you!
I am going to beat it. Without sacrificing quality
@@NWIVeteranConstruction you aren’t fast, your clearly on a flat roof and you don’t have anything in you way and seeing how you don’t like to wear a pouch because you think it’s heavy😂I doubt you wear a harness to do any pitch roofs maybe you don’t even do pitched roofs for the same reason wanna look fast you do you though
@@rodolfosilva5423 I have videos on 12/12 wearing harness..8/12...9/12...idk what else you want? Maybe a 40 sq day and guiness world record for the title of "world's fastest shingler"? Too easy. Done and applied for. 40 sq day last week. Wide open deck or not show me someone else who's done it! I have proof
@@NWIVeteranConstruction why do you think that impresses me cocky people like you make videos as “fastest in the world” 😂real workers don’t have time to record because we’re working all day but I’ll send you a video out of my own time and you show you what speed really is , viva Mexico 🇲🇽
Great Job. Do you have any video's of other jobs that show the whole process? Those are great to watch also. I really like the large 70 square or above. Keep of the great work, thanks for your service.
Yea I've got a few kind of like that but I'm working on doing one very soon very detailed from start to finish for homeowners
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I hope it's a hip roof
I'm old school I used to Hand nail I believe the best time I did was14-15 minutes a square
What’s you’re favorite shoe to wear when on a 10/12? That’s what I’m working on now and can’t stop slipping on the grit! Thanks for any insight!!!
The only thing that will help you walk a ten will be cougar paws. Otherwise you'll need a cushion and I Just wear running shoes usually. Boots are good too
Thank you very much Zach
Find something with a spungy like soul.
How the hell you walking on a 10? Christ, I was terrified on an 8 crawling on a cushion 🤣🤣
My preference is hiking boots with an aggressive tread. Digs through loose granules and always has traction.
Nice to see quality and speed at the same time. Not ONLY speed. I'm looking forward to entering my one square challenge.
Can't wait! i love to see how other roofers do it. even if their times aren't the best. anything under 8 minutes is flying for real
Yo this is seriously fast and accurate. Great job.
I've heard other say this is slow for roofing professionals
Check this video czcams.com/video/A2C1ysEit2s/video.html&feature=share
Does your back ever hurt? How tall are you? I do it like you just on my knees I put patches in my work pants before they have holes and I line up my shingles in piles of six up the stair I'm going to try it like you next time where you open the bundle and drag them down. I'm 5'10.
I started doing the piles of 6, 6 and 8 up the step. that's the way to go for sure. but yea I don't waste too much time making sure they're that particular now I just leave about 6 at the top n start dropping them like that. i'm 5'7. and that rick grace guy is pretty tall and he stands up soo...
@@NWIVeteranConstruction I do about a bundle per song with my headphones on I'll have to record my self doing a square and post it on my channel. When I nail I turn my gun 90° parallel with my shingle and keep the trigger held down and just bounce it and when a nail doesn't go all the way in I use my gun like a hammer. Same gun for 3 years already. It's a harbor freight and I have a new Ridgid back up in my truck that I have never used. Also I took off all the junk I dont use like the shingle spacer thing and half of the nail cover and one gripper on one side so I lay it on the side with the rubber gripper so it doesn't slide when I lay it down. Just to take some weight off of it. I only put one drop of oil in it per day I think that's the secret. I seen other people's guns give out and they put too much oil in their gun. The only problem I had with it was it would jam on the last nail in the coil if I was going too fast so I took off the plastic cover now I can see when I'm close to my last nail and slow down.
Is there a reason for the nail spacing being so wide between the 1st nail and the 2nd nail?
Douglas Rodrigues leaks
Good job man .... great nail Placement.... quality in Every nail
Yes sir! No cheating on my end
Three coils didn't have to pound in one messed up nail?
I see you guys butt your shingles tight to each other... Is that how you recommend always installing opposed to a 1/16" or 1/8" space on gaf timberland? I only all because i have seen it both ways, and was told that in my area southern NH, you should have a bit of space. Seems to me you would always want them butt without a space, but that's why I'm asking. Awesome videos i watch every one of em bro!
I've never heard of anybody leaving a space for shingles. I recommend against it
@@NWIVeteranConstruction ya that's what i figured.. Thanks for the reply man. Keep up the great vids!
Now you have to tie your wrappers so they dont blow up the road in the neighbors yard. Appreciate you taking the time to help with my speed. Still cant get comfortable using my gun to set my shingles. I set it down n let my ocd take over n set n reset my shingle. But I will get there. 2 years in roofing after 20 years of welding. Stay safe brotha.
Im right there with ya brother. Been trying to use the gauge but like u said the OCD kicks in lol. Everyone has their own ways of doing it. Hell im just as fast as the boys who dont put their gun down!
Why in the f#$@ am I watching roofing on my day off.......good job
Nice Job Brother! New challenge. Do it with a Hitachi. Hooah.
Haaaaha I can bang with a Hitachi too
Watching you move fast on the roof like that makes me nervous as hell.
That is some good nailing
AWESOME!!!
Thanks!!
Awesome video! Also anyone have a preference or recommend shoe for roofing I cant seem to get a good grip
I pretty much always but running shoes. but cougar paws are the boots used for extra grip. apparently you can walk 10/12s with it easily.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Thanks!
Still 5 nailin. Where you singling at bro!?
nw indiana
I'll tell ya man, I have learned so much by watching your videos. I used to be a carpenter's helper for about a year after college, and have only done a few small roofing jobs. This was 20 years ago. I needed a refresher and you were it! I'm doing my own roof with some help this week and have been checking out other references. I found that Roofing Insights did nothing but shit talk you about your starter strip installation. I thought that was total bullshit! Just thought I'd send you some positive vibes, and let you know what I found so if you want to tell that asshole to fuck off. Probably not worth your time. Thanks for your service to this country. We all appreciate it! Keep doing great videos!
ahahah thanks yea that guys something else but hey everyone is entitled. I'll tell you first hand nailing your starter a little high will do its just 99.9% of the time. just watch your spaceing and nail placement. don't want them in seems. whats the roof like that you're doing? gable? or a hip roof? any valleys? and is it a walker?
@@NWIVeteranConstruction hip roof with 2 valleys and it's like 4/12. 30 square. should be fun
Roof pitch?
I need to make my own vids now....but damn that's slow lol but I grew up with this shit lol
Didn’t even see the notification for this shiiiiiiittttttt lol you the fucking man brother!!!
haha thanks. was wondering where you were at.
Hahahha you know I don’t miss a video Hahahaha dude said your a good worker but it ain’t there watch this hahaha smoked ya I mean don’t get me wrong he’s quicker then me anyday lol but but if shit went smooth and perfect for you I bet you could smoke a 5:15-5:30 and ain’t no one gonna touch you my guy I’d like to see one of these once a week man get that title you know you already own haters want their proof and your fans want their bragging rights Hahahahahahaha much love brother keep doing you 😏👌 2020 olympics is going to be fucking lit 🔥 I’d like to make it their to meet you my guy one day maybe even might surprise myself and be able to drive their for it because I doubt flying is happening what state you in anyways I don’t think I ever paid attention to that haha
Leave the end nail off. Nail it when you nail your joint. It will give you a shorter range to shoot faster and more accurate. I promise you'll thank me later when you win. Once you get used to it you'll understand. Just don't walk all over your loose ends and keep your bundle placement a little lower. What I always did was half the bundle. Have both halves exactly where they need to be so I can just keep pulling and never had to reach for more.
Cheers man! My knee is jacked and I quit roofing along time ago.
Never met anyone that could shingle faster than me. You could be the one!
liitel advice kid ..i learned almost to late in life .and i come from 5 gens of roofers hand in the tar other on the slate...../you either work for your company.or you run the company..think about ......get a shop to
Good advice here man. We all have to work for our company's to get them going but once thats done, step back and manage it. My 60 year old boss is laying up in ICU with 2 broken vertebra in his neck and 3 in his back because he insists he has to be up on the roof everyday and can't let go of control. It's a tuff business, with tuff guys doing it but a guys gotta know when to step back and let others do the work. Stay safe guys.
Im just gonna appreciate the nail pattern and spacing, good shit
Ha he called the guy a "repeat offender" 😂😂😂
Very good! You can go faster, trying to help i nail same way. But let go of shingle after second nail, you move hand to next shingle very good. It will save time.
You do it around 8:00 watch it. When your shingle is close.
You should check out Drew's Roofing and home repair channel. They just did some REALLY hacked roofs
Mfs named Carlos be doing this onna daily🥱😂
pretty good bud..i'd give u a good go ;)
I noticed you don’t have to turn your gun after the first shot.u had said that u should but noticed u don’t have to but killer work man I’m learning a lot from u.
i usually do when i'm in a good Rythm. also, i'm sure i am just not as much as i exaggerated for demonstration purposes
I do landscaping… and i honestly give my props to anyone who does roofing cuz in the summer if it’s hot asab down by trees and shrubs I imagen what it’s like bending over all day having the sun and the heat from the roof so probs to u guys
Awesome video! I’m curious as to who has installed the most squares in a day. I’ve been roofing for 15 years and the most I have ever seen anyone shingle (besides myself) is around 35sq. My personal best record is 50sq in 8 1/2 hours on a 4 pitch prepped in and bundles spread out with a feeder. I did that 3 times. My best in a hour without a feeder is 5 sq and 2 bundles on a 7 pitch with 2 valleys pulling bundles from the top. What are your guys records? Anyone install more then 50sq in a day?
I know I can do 50. I did 40 recently on a 4 pitch with no help. I averaged around 5 sq an hour when you cut out lunch and gas station runs. I filmed it all and the video is coming so make sure you're subscribed. Oh, and it sounds like you're one hell of shanglerr 💪
BIIIIG TIMEEEEEE
Haug1 bigg time is a legend
I worked with a guy once who hand banged 20 bundles/ 3 tab shingles under an hour. Just over 59 minutes each time and he was over 40 years of age! He was an animal. Canadian champion X2 . Over 20 years ago
thats insane! i assume he had somebody opening bundles of shingles and helping him though? i can barely touch that mark with a gun when i'm shingling on my own...and i nail decently fast and get shingles into position quite quickly...id be pretty hard up to believe he was opening every bundle himself and getting after it completely alone. even with help that's still impressive for hand banging.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction no he got every bundle himself! There was a table Stack of bundles at the top of the peak! He opened, layed and hand banged every shingle himself! Our company was sub contractors of his! Our fastest Shingler with a gun lost to him in a 2 bundle race to the top of the peak! If I hadn't seen him myself I would have never believed it! He was to time Canadian champion! His name was Brian! I can't remember his last name but he owns or might still own tops roofing in Brampton Ontario Canada! Anyway God bless you brother!
Great job man! God I would kill to be young again! Enjoy the times man, because when you get my age your going to be like what the fuck happened? The mind is there, but the body is like, ya you think so uh!
hahah i'm dreading the day.
ive done a sq in 9mins my fastest bundle was 3mins so i mean if u wanna install a roof in 2-3 days good job but if youre a take off put on kinda guy this would not work. but just getting on a roof and working gains my respect so thumbs up.
Man that's good, if you laid the shingles on your feet and moved upwards you would be faster then place a rack of nails every 15 feet up the roof on the side.and if your not on a steep roof you can lay out about 7 rows or more straight across and nail them all at once.lol.been in this business for 40 years, but it's working on me now! Getting burned out, aches and pains.good deal.
Videos comin tommorow I'm posting after work
His compressor isn’t like the 3gal pancake gem I bought for roofing! 😂 One whole shingle gets nailed then I wait 20 seconds before the next one! Read the back of the box on what it can handle !
Smooth
how much a roof like that cost for a customer or you charge per square feet??? and you work is very good man, keep it up.
well this roof is about 4,100 sq ft. which is 41 squares. and people out here charge anywhere between $250 and $1,000 per square for an easy walker like this. I stay around 300 unless its cut up I might be a little higher. no need to hurt peoples pockets like the crooks charging 1,000 per square.
normally in the comment section of these type of video there is always a guy complaning because you are not wearing gloves, helmet, earplugs, kneepads, elbowpads, security shoes, pant, kevlar, balistic stick, belt and more
Making it look easy
god damn belt fed machine gun right there son
My back hurts just watching you
Ive been saying quickler quicker so much now when I'm doing plumbing my gf says quickler quickler
haha I always quicklier. boot camp damn drill sgts scream it.
COME ON !!!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT !!!!!!!!,...............
I would challenge you. To a 2 sided walker. You take a side with a feeder. And i take a side with a feeder. 1000$ lol. Just playing. Would be fun tho! I been at it for 25 years. Im 42 years old now. Been busting em out since i was 16, day in day out. I use a six nail pattern and cut my edges as i go tho.
Cool channel tho. Keep it up.
Roofers are a rare breed!
Haha that's awesome! I'd let you have the feeder n still get ya lol jk. Maybe, As long as it's a little bigger than 8 sq I feel like I'm untouchable
nice job
Thanks!
Each time you hurrily "break the bundle" you are likely poking holes in those discount shingles.. 9/10 times where the double meets.
Expect something this week lol
no trai travjo de rufi me gusta aria travjar con ust
can't wait! I think I can actually get closer 5:50 but I would be surprised if I could ever do any faster. and don't forget the nail placement bud! don't be afraid to show some of them next time ahah
This is what you call love of a profession 😄

I will I’ll show you the nail pattern and the quality after everything is on
@@sergiom4520 sounds good man!
What's up, Zacc? 1st of all, Imma give U props on this 1² challenge, bcuz it ain't nobody's punk! Some cold azz roofers done came forward and put down some mean azz demonstrations! I wanted to step up with a vid and when I did I was terribly disappointed 10+minutes on my sq. casually (w/ some sense of urgency). I'm having to go back to tha lab to rehab & remodel my entire technique fooling wit U cats. When I get a proper vid together I'll get to U. Long story short: I'M WITH THAT PISSIN' CONTEST!!! $igning Up
That's awesome bro! My challenge is here for that reason. It's so easy to think you're the shit. Especially when you're better than those around you. But there's always someone out there that's gonna put you in your place. It's happened to me in roofing, shootingpool, wresting. Etc You name it lol so yea I'm glad you got to feel the disappointment! My first ever 1sq was super casual and 8 minutes. You can see its one of my first videos. Can't way too see you improve! It's all in the set up and eliminating wasted movement. Knowing what's coming next and always having the answer because you've done it the same, time and time again. Consistency
👍🏻
Never disrespected roofer you're pretty fast I'll be honest with you and my 30 years you don't want a single beside me
Read the directions. 6 nails every shingle. No nails within 4” of a seam either way
COME ON !!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT .!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I previously owned a roofing/construction company. As a general rule, an average of 3 square an hour is a good crew and benchmark. This was for tear off, felt, drip, and replacement. 3 guys, 24 square, 8 hour day to completion. $75 a square and we made a good honest living. Only major difference I see, I like to carry a half bundle at a time with my leading foot/leg.
Thats about average for a decent crew. My partner and I could knock out 50sq every 2 days. We were so fast people golfing would just stare. Lol. But he made good points. Cheers.
Paper felt is no longer used at least in the northern states, synthetic underlayment is the way to go!
@@jorgechavez7211 that was getting popular about the time I was getting out. Titanium rolls. I think there was maybe 10 square or so a roll, weighed nothing and strong as all get out!
Nay staples without caps
I didn’t know Andre Pierre gignac was a roofer
Todd Rochon here. I'm way faster than that. And all on the line
Us roofers are a dying breed...fast is great.but no leaks are perfect.keep on roofin guys.We keep us all dry!
that's all i preach brotha. roof on
I used to go to the gym at 4am workout then show up on the job site as the Roofing f oreman at 6 ready for a day of Handnailing Clay-tile roofs....I was just thinkin....maybe more protein & l
Exercise BESIDES the shingling. I no high reps of courses on tile its a little rougher on EVERYTHING. Exercise will eventually Counter the effects of monotony.
Here on the east coast we MUST use plastic cement on every shingle or you can guarantee you will be making a call back to replace a bunch of shingles. Its a huge pain in the ass and very messy if not careful.
what? even in florida i think its just on the edges..unless its above an 18/12 pitch or whatever then you gatta do 4 dabs on every shingle..why is that?
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Sorry. I shouldve mentioned I live in Nova Scotia. It gets very windy here and as you prob know its only warm a few months of the year so the factory plastic cement on the shingles is never enough so if you dont tar the shingles you will see a bunch of tabs laying on the ground after a high wind. Love your vids btw.. You do awesome work👍💪
Gosh you're so slow.... 🐌
I kid, i kid! Keep up the good work!
Lol thanks
