- In this weeks video we rip off our final roof, adjust the finished room height and put a new roof complete with fibre glass top coat. This week has got us to a point where we are water tight in all of our working areas which now means we can start the rip out of the main house ready for knocking through top produced the big open plan living our customers want.
If you have any questions drop them in the comments or to our email contained within the bio.
Thanks for watching.
I think the drone is a great addition to give your viewers a different view, but also, can be used to inspect roofing when quoting for jobs to see without getting ladders or scaffolding up. Love watching your videos from a DIY perspective and followed your channel for over few years now.
Nice one, Derek. Really appreciate that, mate. Giving us your time will always be appreciated, mate. Thank you so much.
You guys are a credit to the industry.
That's a nice thing to say, Ian. Thank you very much.
I would "REALLY" like to know, considering the quality and effort the team are showing on this build, what stage the work on the 'previous' job that you parted ways on, has gotten to, this vlog has shown that your work, ethics and quality is top notch IMHO, I just wish we had more to watch, waiting a week is like being back in the 80's waiting for the next thrilling installment of whatever to come :) Thanks for the uploads, the comedy and the quality, very much appreciated.
I have been a plasterer for 52 years (retired now) best builders I've seen are brilliant.
Ah thank you mate. I hope that you continue to enjoy a long and healthy retirement.
In the morning of the last days work at 41 Mins -30 Secs in i thought the two lads were turned to Mecca on their knees for their Morning Prayers. Really great job, you were blessed with nice dry weather not alone for the construction of the roof but for the critical part with the fibre glass work on the roof.
What a great series of videos. You really put yourselves in the firing line in making these. Warts and all. You have emerged having completed (except bells and whistles) a fairly complex and demanding job which from which an experienced self home builder has learned a lot and been reassured that what practices I have done over the years have been based on common sense and good basic principles. I have enjoyed watching the processes.
Thank you, Charles! Really appreciate that, mate. We've got a long way to go but we'll get there. Thanks again, have a great week.
Like so many followers here I just love your attention to detail and quality of work. I’m busy with my own projects in our bungalow we moved into 8 weeks ago and you guys are an inspiration to me as when I hit an issue I think what would you guys do to ensure a good job! Your content is great. All the best to you all. Regards Mike. Love the drone shots
You’re giving the tricks away now fella’s !!! Looking forward to watching another episode to cap off a weekend in the sun. Hope everybody has had a great one 👍🏻
Hope you enjoy it, mate! All good here thank you. Hope you and yours are too.
Another great insight iinto how to do it properly so it lasts. Great attention to detail as always thank you gents.
Richie - you have been blessed with that rip up! if only all flat roof rip ups were that easy!
Regards Nick
What a timely video I'm doing something similar, waiting for my rubber roof to arrive. Thanks for the information, subd!
love the drone footage. keep it up
pictures always paint a thousand words
Nice one, Billy! Will do!
Great content really well explained cold roof is a real eye opener
Great video lads. It’s a pity I didn’t see this before I did my flat roofs, with a tradesman who was supposed to know what he was doing! I could have taught him a few tips for fibreglassing.
Hello Barry, hope you're well. Sorry that your job didn't go very well! Hope it all worked out ok in the end?
@@mrabuilders6723 sadly not, I’ve got figure some way of getting all the water off the roof in the gutter, some of it drips down between the gutter & the facia. Which I believe after watching your videos is poorly fitted roof trims.
You're brave walking around on those old roof rafters - shocking quality workmanship before, no noggins either!!!
Fantastic video as always, always look forward to Sundays! I'm not a builder but a cabinet maker and I would like to think a knowledgeable diyer. I recently took my plastic gutter down to clean (bungalow). My question is, would it be possible to take the gutter down on your flat roof, or just replace a fitting? I'm referring to the way the trim sits in the gutter. Sorry if this is a dumb question! Keep up the great work guys. You are true craftsman and I applaud you for passing on your skills in a very informative way, with comedy thrown in as well.
Not a dumb question at all and it's a bit of a design fault with this system, once it's on there's no going back!
Great job , loved the way you showed how the GRP roof is fitted . As I have fitted the GRP roofs myself being a window and conservatory and flat roof fitter , well done lads 👍
Looks that those C36 roof timbers are good to go again and pixelating the neighbour's dog was very funny in many different ways!! Mr A you do a top job again highly enjoyable to watch
Cheers, Mike! Hope you're well mate.
Upping your game, with a drone now. Very nice. All looks fantastic lads, thanks for sharing.
Phenomenal job as always. I might have missed it, but don’t think you showed how to cover the mitres at the corner, as I’m not sure if you fibreglass them as they’re on the outside edge. I’ll watch again anyway, I always watch them a few times anyway 😊 lovely finish Ad and Rich
Amazing work. Enough said. 👌👍
Excellent video, love the drone footage
Fine work fellas 👍
Not quite sure how the air will flow under the roof in this instance. Perhaps you could say what drone you bought. Once again great job guys.
All will be explained regarding the vents mate. The drone is a DJI Mini Pro 4, if that means anything to you! It didn't to me before I bought it!
Flipping good roof. Dry as. Sorry I meant the original. Sure the new one will be same.
Looking good, I bet your customer is happy. Regards, Dave
I've just stumbled on this project and binge-watched the lot. Great work guys. It'll be great to see the finished job
Ah cheers mate! Really appreciate your time! Hopefully we'll do the customers and ourselves proud. Thank you for watching, Adam.
Excellent video as always! Great step by step description of the construction of a roof Rich, it’s not as easy as it looks. Adam, have you had an estimate for your haircut yet, it’s a big job and may need scaffolding!? 😉 Looking forward to seeing you all next week!
Haha! The quotes are in the scaffolding is booked! Thank you, Simon! Hope you're well, mate.
Grand job guys as usual handy tips along the way thanks 4 sharing very beneficial
Looking good, boys.
Thank you, Bryan. Hope you're well, mate.
hello fellas great video halfway through looking good ......
Top job as usual guys, when can you come down to Sussex I have a whole list of jobs to do!
Thanks for the knowledge and the entertainment! I have a question about drainage again... as it stands it looks like the gutter of roof 3 will have to deal with all the rain falling on roof 3, plus roof 1 and on top of that half the roof of the original house, is there not a high risk of overflowing in a downpour? I'm a fan of the Gate City Foundation Drainage channel and Sean is always saying "once water is in a pipe, keep it in a pipe", so maybe the water from roof 1 and the top of the house should somehow be kept in down pipes instead of flowing on top of roof 3? But I wouldn't know how to do that...
Thank you, pal! You're right, the water will make do exactly how you say, we'll explain why in a future episode.
I couldn't think of a dimple joke this week, but I'll double up next week for sure!
Haha! You've had an entire week!!!!! I've come to expect better!!!
Brilliant 🎉
Professional bunch 😊
Cheers, man! Hope you're well.
The roofs look a great job done there lads, just wondering for the utility room roof is there some ventilation strip under the fascia trim on the neighbouring side so you have a cross airflow going though to the abutment vents on the wall side ?
There will be facia vents drilled through, mate. Cheers man.
I've told all of my mates also, both of them
you cannot leave without addressing that odd bit of roof at the front right?
Thanks for the shout out!
No problem at all thanks for interacting with the channel. Hope you have a good week and see you next weekend 👍🏻
I hope they do have the rest of the roof done. Will look better. Thinking of doing this to my garage roof.
Fingers crossed they will, mate.
This has been a fantastic series and I’ve loved watching this project every Sunday. Richard’s comments about the original rafters not sitting on the wall plate made me laugh when he said he wouldn’t insult Diyers 😂. The music is spot on 👍, great editing. Lovely drone footage, what drone did you use? Thanks for the heads up Adam on hello,fresh, had my first 3 dinners this week, very tasty and easy to cook 🙂👍. Have a good week guys 👍
Haha! Did you really buy a hello fresh off the back of our video??? That's ace if you did! Thank you for watching and commenting mate, really appreciate it. Have a great week too.
looks excellent well done guys
Great work as always, you have a great eye for detail…..what’s the make of your drone, seems very stable when hovering?
Cheers mate! It's a DJI mini pro 4. Great bit of kit!
Well done looks great. Hope you're all keeping well
Thank you, Phil. We are thank you, hope you are too.
Great footage.
Top job men , bravo.
Brilliant. Love it!!
Cheers, man!
Great work.
Looks fantastic 👌
Cheers mate! How are you?
@mrabuilders6723 I'm doing great thanks mate, keeping busy with plenty of electrical work 😀 It's always a pleasure seeing you guys put together a quality job 👍 keep them coming.
Give me a call if you want a few tips on grp roofing. I have noticed one or two things that will improve the longevity of your glass fibre roofing.
That would be great mate if you wouldn't mind? Always willing to learn and I'd live to ask a few questions if that's ok? Could you email us your number please?
Quick question and sorry if I’ve missed it but you mentioned that the last builders put the roof onto the outer skin of brickwork and not the inner skin. Did you do the same (but on top of the ladder frame)?
It looked bone dry underneath so at least they did summt right I guess......
90% of it was mate, but the eaves we rotted through.
Could you please explain to me why your OSB sheeting is only 2 feet wide. Here in the states everything is 4 x 8. I am quite confused.
Hi Robert. As you may have seen in this episode we talked about having two different types on this roof that didn’t fit together. This is because these OSB sheets are 8’ x 2’ tongue and groove which allows us to span between rafters and not have to go onto the centre of each flat roof rafter like standard OSB or other sheet materials. Hope this explains your question. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻
Looking great! Hope the customer get s the last small section done? Why wouldn’t you after showing how poor the last person did a DIY poor attempt!
Glued to these every week, and do you think the customer would want to show there delight at the very final stage?
Hello Don, hope you're well. I'm sure the customer will get that roof done and be more than happy to show everything once it's done! Fingers crossed anyway! Cheers mate.
Hi Adam and lad's
It's great t see what your doing your work videocontent is very good👍. A good friend is having a rubber roof. As like your main roof with the same roof lantern that you have i know yours glass fibre as I've watched all of your stuff.. My experience with fiberglass on boats is that it's far more durable harder, and has greater longevity so I told him I would have gone down the route of glass he said nop rubber it's much better , he's been told. Blaaa blaaaa have you a preference to rubber or glass. As I've said I think glass fibre. 🏴🏴👍cheers dave
Hello Dave, hope you're well. Thank you for your kind words, really appreciate it. That's a great question and one that I've been meaning to address...I tell you what...we'll make a video on it!!! Watch this space!!!
I farr prefer epdm to fiberglass.
@paulf2529 do you Paul? You've never mentioned it...
What a load of TOSH!!😅

Adam - the drone is brilliant! a good investment! can you put up a link for this?
One question - is the gully outlet from the main roof going to drain onto the roof you have just completed? or is the outlet clear of the end of the roof - difficult to see from the footage. regards Nick
www.dji.com/uk/mobile/mini-4-pro
There you go, mate. Yes, the water does do that, we'll show in more detail in next week's episode.
Will you rebuild that block wall with insulation inside the cavity?
Not too sure yet, mate. We'd like to stud it but we'll see what the inspector says!
I noticed y’all put that new roof what looks like right near what looks like the property have there been any struggles with neighbor or the city on how close yall are
Hello from across the pond! How are you? It's very close but I had a conversation with the owner and he let us onto his land to do the work. Very nice of him. Thank you for watching.
hey guys im torn between resin or edpm would you resin is better over the two?
Great question. Rubber is sooooo much easier and quicker, but if you're going round a roof window they are patchy which can make them quite ugly. It's all down to aesthetics at the end of the day.
So who brought the ID Buzz van? Any good for what you guys are doing? Or is it just someone else on site.
Someone else's mate.
I absolutely hate grp😂I did a porch roof and when it had gone off I caught the edge and got a splinter in my hand🤦♂️3 years it's been itching everyday
We are sorry if this video kicked off your PTSD again!
Yet another Sunday night must view.... one question.. What's happening to the window in the utility room, would it not be better to remove it all together.... Love the drone footage at the end 👍 All three roofs look really nice...Can not wait till to see what next Sunday brings...
Nice one, Poddy! I think the window will go. Thank you, mate. Have a great weekend.
The person who built that garage/utility roof was probably the guy who owned our hose prior to us. Fancied himself as a builder, but didn't own a tape measure or spirit level. or even a clue!! Shame your up north!
or how to spell house....lol
@@TheJbrinks Well, that makes me look good!
Whoever knew Julian assange would end up doing roofs 😂
Few chains and you look like Jimmy fix it...
Loving the show but get a haircut
Haha! All you've got to do is promise to house him and do anything!
4:14 and a serious breach of working at height regulations. You should not be walking on the unnboarded rafters, two scafold planks would have provided a safe working platform. Further numerous occasions of unn footed ladder use.
How have you edited your comment and still got spelling mistakes within it?
@@paulf2529but still manage to be a keyboard warrior!! 🤦🏻♂️
Haha!
33:26 i note your gutter bracket spacing is extremely wide. Personally with osma i like to use bracket spacing at 750mm, it looks to me that you are over 1000mm spacing.
Im really concerned about the use of masking tape over the mistakes in cutting the trim, personally i would take better care cutting the trim, no point rushing it.
😂🤦🏻♂️
Tell you what Paul, would you like to visit the site? All travel expenses paid, we'd love to make a video with you pointing out all your issues and us explaining everything.
@@mrabuilders6723 I'm unfortunately tied up with my own work and family commitments but respect the offer and would consider this at a future time perhaps. Whilst I disagree with you on some points I do respect the fact you are willing to debate them. I'm certainly not condemning the entire job, only offering my opinion on certain elements of it.
what?? why would you demolish it??? now i must know!!...lol
Haha! All will be explained!!!
@@mrabuilders6723 im done all the honey do list stuff and did the shopping. gonna enjoy a cold one with the new video boys.
Nice one!
@@mrabuilders6723 cant wait and told all my mates to check your streams out.
Great to see the progress and the sunshine 😎 When is the topping off party ?🍷🍺🪣
The sunshine has been greatly missed! We're along way off the party but we're getting there!
