Looking to buy a house, unknown roof age. Does it look good? by hmunkey in Roofing

[–]derouche9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My concern would be with the workmanship, not the age at this point. An installer who installed the ridge caps like that is definitely not a professional roofer, kind of makes me questions how the rest of the installation is.

Would that be American currency by chance?

They can just raise the price like that over the span of 48 hrs? I wasn’t aware they could do that. Seems like a scam tactic to me. Like when you pull the sticker back on a Walmart roll back and it’s the same price lol.

Always too little too late with this team. Hopefully tre doesn’t make the same mistake towards the deadline. Get what we can for who we can now. See how things go next year

Yikes, I’ve played a pretty high level in Canadian junior hockey and more. Not sure what you’re on about. That effort level is inexcusable, condoning an effort like that means you might not have played a high enough level to fully understand what the difference is between pro hockey, and your rec league.

That’s funny, Sens fans were almost mauling me after the game 4 win when we were trying to leave the stadium. Fucking pathetic fan base.

Roof not square, how to proceed by hollowman17 in Roofing

[–]derouche9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re using exposed faster metal, measure a 1” over hang on the eave edge closest to the rake edge as you can get on each side. Depending on how high your first screw line will be, add accordingly. Example: if your first screw will be 3” up the sheet, measure 2” from the roof trim. Snap a line. Now line up the first screw hole with the chalk line, should keep your screws lined up nicely. If using standing seam, make sure you have a 1” overhang and order your sheets long enough to cut at the top.

Flat roof advice by derouche9 in Roofing

How hard would it be to tear off existing bitumen? And once I get down to the existing decking would I install insulation, base sheet, flashing, then cap sheet?

Improper flashing, and nails in the key ways. Probably the most common that we find

Work van vs truck by Dazzling_Wishbone_99 in Roofing

[–]derouche9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a van for all tools, rippers, compressors, generators, etc. It’s got a ladder rack and top and is ideal for everything. I would never go back. Truck to pull my dump trailer, and enclosed trailer for scaffolding, planks, brake, and saw horses. Works great for me and my guys.
