TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) roofing is a type of single-ply roofing membrane used in commercial and residential buildings, particularly for flat or low-slope roofs. TPO is made from a blend of rubber (usually ethylene-propylene) and polypropylene, which is then reinforced with a fabric to provide durability and strength.
There are a lot of providence rds in this country...:)...I saw the palm trees so I figured fla or Cali...I see by your facebook you're in cali..What a shit roof job that was...Roofer for over 30 years off and on...; )...
... Yeah, new roof, new decking, ventilation and pipe jacks and maybe use some edging this time, and on a side note a second layer of roofing is ALWAYS a stupid idea that the insurance companies in the DFW area figured out in 1992 after they replaced tens of thousands of overlays they paid for the year before, a majority being less than a year old... ... Good times...
Ridgevent is designed for vaulted ceilings. You should not apply Ridgevent over an attic. The Ridgevent itself is a flawed system that leaks on driving wind rains. Over 35 yrs of roofing I can't even count the amount of times I've had to change Ridgevent over an attic due to leaks. You must understand Ridgevent is designed for vaulted ceiling and that's the only time you should apply it ! 💯
Nice to see this, do you show it to the customer? I had a roof done about 8 years ago just north of you in Orange County, the contractor I chose walked me around my single-story house and showed me some of the old techniques, what was worn out, what was done right and what was done for 'budget purposes' (his language was more 'colorful!). He wasn't the cheapest or costliest bidder, but he's the one I chose due to the walk around. It didn't rain the following winter ☹so he extended my warranty for another rainy season 😁 (I'd see him occasionally around town).
Are ladder standoffs necessary? Some are militant about their usage because of proposed gutter damage. Have you experienced any real need for one for simple inspections?
Good Morning! Most of our customers see the value out of these inspection videos. Sometimes they’ll ask to have it set to private, which is not an issue. “Doxxed” implies that there is malicious intent. Do you think that, from this free service that was provided ?
@@buildbrothers6919 I’m talking about the meaning of the word, not the implications. Is it really free when you are using their private information to try and make money online?
I watched your RU-vid channel and your contents very good. I like this video so much that's why i am sharing it with 50 people on facebook. Keep it up Bro
Thanks for the video, we use a similar tile here in Ireland 12x16" we would allow 4" for headlap.a pitch of 22.5 minimum. We don't use ply wood at all, just a breathable membrane felt ontop of the rafters and then 2x1 treated batons fixed parallel at 12" spacings the tiles should have lugs that allow the tiles to hang from the top edge of the baton then every 2nd tile only is nailed. Doing it this way leaves a cavity under the tiles any possible water ingress can flow down the felt and into the gutter without lodging behind and sitting on the under felt.
Good Morning Carlos. Our local building codes and the manufacturers do not require cover board or insulation on residential projects. It's never a bad idea, but some could argue that in our mild climate, its not neccessary. The TPO does a far better job reflecting heat during the summer, than whatever previous product was was in place. Please feel free to call to schedule a free estimate if you're in San Diego County. 844-276-5278
Andrew I have been looking for a Home Improvement Grant. Pretty much have run into a dead end. I pretty much have to live in a rural area to get one. I'm a veteran/ senior. Maybe you know of some. Thanks.
