I wish I had seen this video before I paid a roofer to replace my flat roof felt with EPDM, he made a right pigs ear of the job and I think if I had seen this video I would have had a go myself and done a far better job than he did, but I didn't have the confidence.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can rectify it using tips from the video. Best of luck with it 👍
Very professional and informative video. Great work! Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback Gary 👍
Awesome video & proper to-the-point editing. Watching is really motivating for a total novice like me to get started on various diy jobs that need doing!
Glad you enjoyed it, and note...we all make mistakes! 🤣 Thanks for watching 👍
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Agreed 👍 if you could do these jobs 1st try perfectly everytime... then you're not human 😂 And frankly watching lessons learned and thought process in vids like these is waaay more helpful & interesting than just seeing it executed perfectly.
This is interesting for a small flat roof extension i have 👍
It's really good stuff, commonly used on extensions. Lots of different parts and products available for different types of installation. Best of luck with it 👍
Nice job, well done!
Thanks Patrick!
Pull the plastic off the drip trim before hammering the nails fully in so you don’t get plastic trapped under the nails
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Excellent Video, thanks very much. I've got my sheet of EPDM etc. ready,just waiting for a dry day.
Good luck!
Another very useful video. Thank you. Hope your dad gets better soon. Thats a lot of broken bones to heal no matter what age you are
No problem. He is on the mend but was very lucky, think his shoulder took the brunt although he took a blow to head also. Thanks for the kind words David.
great video, thanks for the tips at the end, well done
Glad it was helpful!
Very enjoyable video. What a great job :)
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Great video, thanks
No problem, glad you enjoyed it.
I'm hungover, sat next to an EPDM shed roof kit knowing I should make better use of my day and fit the thing. Watching this has made me get off my arse and get it done, thank you!
Great news, get out and blow the cobwebs away! Hope it went well 👍
@POUSE around the HOUSE the day I wrote that comment, I jumped on the roof and removed all the tacks. The heavens then opened and completely soaked my workshop haha.
I've since managed to install the EPDM and it went great. Thank you for uploading, great video!
Great stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Great video pal. Considering a shelter/gazebo in the garden and wanted to use this kind of kit.
Glad you enjoyed it. Go for it, it's a nice product to install....if you put it on the right way! Best of luck with it and thanks for watching 👍
And give my regards to Papa Pouse and Brother Pouse! Great content!
Will do, thanks 👍
Always great to see you!
You're probably the only one that thinks that way! Thanks for watching. 👍
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE nope, it’s great to see one of your videos pop up on my wee bell icon
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Always look forward to your videos! Keep them coming!
@@davidtaylor4975 thanks David 👍
@@amoffat2012 thanks Alan 👍
Good reminder on how easy it is to make mistakes. Good video subject as I'll be doing the same.
Indeed it is, especially when you're tired and out of practice!! Thanks for watching 👍
THANKS
No problem 👍
👍 would have really liked to see how you did all your adaptions, but great video anyway.
I probably should have filmed that but I was rushing and forgot! I just trimed it with the angle grinder as you saw on the other bits of plastic. Thanks for watching 👍
❤❤it and video 😊😊
Well done on the 100k subs mate :):)
Thank you 👍
I have this same kit from Rubber4Roofs. Got it last October but there hasn't been a decent break in the weather, rain or temperature wise, for me to do it. However, the weather is good next Friday and Saturday so will do it then.
The drip/gutter trim doesn't fill me with confidence though. The water might not make it over the lip of the trim and could just run behind the front-facing trim (i.e. between it and the rubber). Time will tell.
Appreciate the upload - thanks!
Best of luck with it 👍
I've just ordered an EPDM kit for my (much smaller) flat roof shed. Your installation was more complicated than mine will be; nevertheless, this was a very useful and informative video. You've got another subscriber!
Thanks for the sub. Best of luck 👍
I put a baton around the outside edge to give a better drip. I also mark a line with a pencil at 100mm in so I know where to put the contact adhesive and where to roll the other adhesive.
Good advice 👍 thanks for the feedback.
Did a fantastic job considering you did it on your own. Sorry to hear about Papa Pouse. Hope he's ok and on the mend .
Thank you. He's on the mend but very lucky to get away with what he did. Could have been much worse.
Use a black sharpie to hide writing, problem solved. Great video.
Good suggestion! Luckily I've got used to it and don't really notice it anyway. Thanks for watching.
Cracking video mate,really nice job.Great well presented info that I needed. Got to repair my large shed roof and recover.
Got a new sub aswell
Thanks Rob, best of luck with the shed roof 👍
good vid, i was thinking about doing some roofing. My roofer wants to use asphalt but i’m not so sure. epdm looks like less hassle.
Personally, I think epdm is a great product. The fact its one peice leaves no room for installation error. Anything that requires sealing, or binding together on site always leaves potential for leaks. As long as it's not punctured it really is good stuff. Best of luck with it whichever material you use 👍
putting a screw in the end of your sealant might work for 1 day if you're lucky , even tape doesnt work - ive seen on youtube some other ways/products you can get for this
I'll be reffering back to this in a few months time when the sun's out, currently I have a miniscule leak which appears only with heavy rain but have my rubber roof kit ready to install.
Couple of questions I'm asking myself though, should I treat the wood roof (good timber) before putting the rubber roof on. And should I leave it a little loose and not too tight, to avoid the rubber shrinking and splitting potentially? Great video
I wouldn't worry about treating wood covered by the rubber as it is fully water tight. I would stick the rubber straight to roof. It's quite flexible so will shrink and expand a bit but you don't want to be left with a wrinkly roof! Let me know how you get on. Best of luck with it 👍
Alcohol or acetone may take of that writing if your lucky .I would try test patch first tho on an of cut.
Thanks for the info Bob. I'll give it a go 👍
Isn't the trim on the from and back meant to sit on top of the edge of the rubber, which redirects water down to the gutter? That's how the edging for mine works (I hope!)
Yes you can use that but I used the gutter trim all the way around as mentioned in the video. Thanks for watching 👍
Great video but them drip trims will make the she 360 degrees around the ground floor.wet
I think there poly pins ?
To be honest, the roof on mine slopes inwards a touch so I won't get drips from the apex but that's why I mentioned each roof is different and you can adapt it for your shed. Yes you're right about poly pins, thanks for watching 👍
Brilliant job enjoy watching your channel really helpful.. where you based please
Thanks for the feedback. I'm based in Wales UK but this is just DIY, I don't do this for a living!
View the writing as a brand logo such as Adidas or Nike. Then you can show it off. I’ve done similar so many times so I’m glad it’s not just me. Cheers for the vid and I hope your Dad is ok. Sounds like a nasty one.
Thank you Tom. My dad is on the mend but still a bit stiff. As for the writing, it's not that noticeable to be honest and maybe it'll weather off 🤞
what size is your shed ?
So have you not totally finished the loft extension?.
Yes all done, just need to get on with editing down endless amounts of footage! I felt people lost interest for a bit as I've taken so long to upload, but hopefully I'll knock a few vids out soon. Thanks for watching 👍
what size is your shed
It's 14' x 10' but the surface area is a bit bigger than that as the roof is pitched.
Singha beer 🍻
T shirts
Nice
That t-shirt must be as old as me! Thanks for watching 👍
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE
Thailand special
Couple of things. Still wearing my t-shirt 16 years on? Nice cap! Tata farewell. Go and enjoy a succulent meal!
I think some new clothes are maybe in order. I notice that t-shirt is half the length it used to be! Maybe I'll treat myself. And for the record, I just enjoyed a succulent Chinese meal.
Shouldn't drive the cap nails home until you take the plastic off first
I should know that since I show how to do exactly that in my loft conversion videos! Thanks for watching 👍
How much did the EPDM sheet cost....?
If you go to links in description section below, it'll take you to website, put your size in the calculator and it will give you price for your size. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 👍
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Thanks Mate..👍
Those trims are rubbish
Thanks for the feedback.
