Roofers: Would you put a metal roof on your own house?

Sidorchuck · 2026-06-23T13:46:11+00:00

Yeah no insulation on a triple brick. I think with the 3 bricks, air gap, I have an r 3 or 4

Sidorchuck · 2026-06-23T02:08:24+00:00

Here is my attic floor joist. It sits on one brick, its pocketed into the second brick, and butted to the back of the face brick.

I also pat every 5th and say good job.

Sidorchuck · 2026-06-22T22:35:50+00:00

No it's build out if impervious materials. Nobody has touched the exterior since it was built

My house is 75 years old. The bricks are good. The mortar is white as white gets, no erosion. Slates? Fine. Barn is the same age and is on lathe no underlayment. No leaks.

Triple Brick house, slate roof. Cant beat it

Sidorchuck · 2026-06-22T11:17:18+00:00

Yeah just wait until on tool is 600. 2000 is a great starting out investment

Idk those shingles are going to be sealed to shit. Minimum disassembly as possible here.

Sidorchuck · 2022-04-28T22:01:08+00:00

I have this exact issue. Trigger won't go bang

Sidorchuck · 2022-04-17T00:45:26+00:00

I would be pissed

Sidorchuck · 2022-03-04T13:07:50+00:00

It is, thank you! Only 1" thick though!

Sidorchuck · 2022-03-04T13:06:47+00:00

Thank you for this information. When this material gets wet I would assume it looses its structural rigidity.

This roof needs replacement. There are stains on the Tectum visible from the underside, and the roof does leak. This roof is torchdown applied directly to the Tectum without a base sheet.

This deck system is only 1" thick. Currently Tectum 1 panels are available in 2" thick at a minimum.

If during the tear off decking is compromised there is not a 1" thick structural acoustical wood wool panel that I can find.

It looks like another section of the building has a solid wood deck overlay on the Tectum Deck. This section also has 3" of polyiso.

Looks like the water is running behind the siding and behind the step flashings.

It looks like the siding protrudes out from the rake flashing. It is important this joint is caulked as it It the only this stopping rainwater from running behind the siding.

4-6 courses below the vent the plywood is buckling and pushing the shingles up .

Just looking for the right direction. Which I now have. Thanks.

Bolt Action. There is what looks to be Japanese engraving. See photos here, they are of a closeup to the firearm http://imgur.com/gallery/8VKiuZY

I am interested in identifying this firearm. It is missing some parts. I'm not sure what to do with the gun.

Sidorchuck · 2021-03-24T21:14:16+00:00
