"You gotta rephrase that..."

It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into ru-vid.comUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.

WOW, anyone else think they scratched the hell out of panel before remembering he needs to pull off plastic protector? (Sorry,lol) Fantastic job

I rewatched 14 last night. 15 this morning.

I thought I was fussy but, your eye for detail is insane Kyle.

Kyle, you give me hope for humanity. You seem like a great guy that does excellent work! A great example for anybody!

When is the Under Armour sponsorship starting?

Love these videos. Your attention to detail is second to none. Viewing all the way from Northern Ireland. Gary

As someone who started working construction in the 60's I'm encouraged to see people still concerned with quality and workmanship.WAY TO GO !!

Solid job as always. Ridge valley intersections are tough.

"Do your best and caulk the rest". Take "your best" and that varies by skill. Kyle,"your best" is outstanding 👏

I just love the way the Americans do their roofing. We use clay tiles here and there are just so many opportunities for leaks and it looks shit. Your way of roofing is by far more superior.

So if I take the width of the roof and divide it by my panel exposure I'll get number of inches to cut my first panel and it will finish the same size?

Kyle,You guys are on Point every thing lines up perfect from my vantage point lol..Cause you know if its not it will show bigger than heck great work keep on keeping on...Txs for sharing...

Very impressive, you can see where the cost is, very time consuming, looks great though, as usual top job boys, love it 👍👍👍👍

Nicely Done Great Stuff To Use Product GEOCEL Caulking

This is what I totally appreciate all of that detail at that valley peak. you could have easily cut it "good enough for government work and then put the good ole "magic juice" but no, you did it to the very best of your ability! I also notice (weather you notice it not) but every piece you put up, it's like the very first piece you put on. Not only are you building to the very best of your ability but, you are teaching Greg craftsmanship, patience and attention to detail besides; taking us along with you. you sir sleep like a baby at night knowing you have the very best in your skills! Your clients are super to have you as a craftsman. I know Larry Haun would be impressed! Thank you sir for all the hard work and all the filming and editing. I for one am very grateful for all the hard work!

I’m not a roofer or framer. I did shingles a couple of times when I was younger but nothing too extreme. I just enjoy picking up info in case I ever decide to do my own repairs. Your videos are very informative and detailed. It is greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work.

I wonder how and if Stretch Tape could be applied over that valley connexion, before the ridge cap of course.

Attention to detail and math produce buildings that look exactly like the architects drawing . Perfection!

There used to be a time when craftsmen didn't use sealant or caulk and things didn't leak. What's interesting is many of today's "craftsmen" are charging way more for their services than any time in American history, yet the end product is substandard compared to past history.

46.49°?? What happened to the 43.5° you've talked about all throughout the valley tin application???

Are you ambidextrous? I see you use either hand. That's great

Great work, if you want to try the M12 Milwaukee FID impact driver for these small screws you will not have any issues (and 12 volt tools are not that heavy). Greetings from Switzerland

Great job you're doing there, really nice to see tradesmen taking pride in their work and going that extra mile to get it right.

Kyle amazing attention to detail leads to a superior product! If I lived near your working area I would for sure have you build me a shop! That is the best looking roof I have seen! Thanks for posting and I am already looking forward to the next video!

I know this comment is pretty late, but I'm 15 videos into this series. I love how detailed you guys are. I feel like if I was in the construction trades, this is how I would be. It's not always about speed and quantity. I'd probably starve if I relied on those factors. I love taking my time and doing it right, and when I hire a contractor I expect professional results. Otherwise I'd just do it myself. I'm always willing to pay more for a service if it's done right. You guys are awesome! Enjoy the content and the positive work environment you and Greg have with each other. That's pretty uncommon on most trades videos I watch. I should mention that I work in IT, but most of my RU-vid history is filled with watching people do their trades. It's just very interesting to me.

Them thighs need some color 😉 Great videos man!

Do you ever confuse yourself Kyle??, looks good when finished ,But we know a lot of hard work goes into it thanks to youre chanell!!. Enjoying following along with this series.

Thanks for being a stickler for details, Kyle. From the ground to the ridge, quality content indeed.

I give u a lot of credit for showing ur work on RU-vid and taking the time to explain it. Thanks u for showing how the valley ran into that other valley. Looks great 👍

Nice detail, laying out the roof panels where the seem, ends up exactly at the ridge of the dormer. Clean look.

Great job 👏🏽 I just left it like 👍🏽

That looks so complicated but you make it look quite easy. Always an enjoyable watch.

Seems like some flashing tape would be a good idea over the top of the sealant where it would not be seen???

Caulk and paint will make it what it ain't

There's not a caulk tube big enough if I were doing this job. Do they sell caulk in 5 gallon buckets? Also, can one of those JLG lifts pick up 55 gallon drums of caulk? Need to know for future reference. Google-ing now for a caulk mop.

Loved watching the progression up to this point! Your attention to detail has ensured an almost perfect result - note almost perfect - just because perfection is only a figment of our imaginations! 😁😁😁😁

Y'all do EXCELLENT Work!!! I am NOT a professional carpenter. but I sure think I'd of wanted at least a 4 inch overhang where the two valleys topped out. Maybe the valley cap you spoke of will remove the possibility of rain penetrating under that 1inch or so overlap at the top of the valleys. You're the man, so I'm sure you got it right!!!

Yay, early evening with a rum and RR vlog go together.... Hey this is the UK?!!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Greg, what have you done to your hair?? 😂😂😜😜 Thanks guys 👍👍👍😎

Very good hanywork, but isn't there finnished sections for this kinda job? -love your videos.... :-D

that is a perfect. and the greatest roof you ever done.

If it wasn't for you Kyle I would probably not even attempt doing a metal roof by myself (especially with valleys and chimneys). I am now almost done with 2500 s.f. roof in white and I could not be more satisfied and amazed at how it turned out. You rock man! Much respect.

Always great to see professionals at work. The amount of detail and work that goes into something like this to get it right and not just ok is what sets you guys apart from others. Well done guys.

Your videos are awesome. I’ve been in the roofing trade now for 13 years. Every time I watch one of your corrugated or standing seam videos I learn something new. It’s sick

W flashing is a PITA. I really suggest trying it in December though. Much more fun when you have no grip on the roof. I am looking forward to you doing the hip cap.

Finally a good video on that detail i allways strugle with 😊👍

That steel looks hotter than a two-dollar pistol...!!!

I love watching your videos!! I miss the trades!!! Moved up to PM and I miss my bags!!!

This roof looks awesome! You take your time and get it right. Would love to see some drone footage when it’s completed

Little caulk, little paint makes a carpenter what he ain’t!!!!😅 that’s our saying!!! Good job great vid!!👍👍

Once in my neighborhood Johnson's had a dream to fix up their house so they hired Euroclad for the roof. Their old roof was in bad shape, with holes and leaks everywhere. They put their faith in Euroclad's know-how. A nice crew showed up without any fuss and turned the Johnson's roof into a copper showpiece that got the neighbors talking. The Johnson's felt proud and safe, like they had a brand-new house, thanks to Euroclad's top-notch work.

So cool harness attachments

I'm confused what about condensation...no furring strips?

Is there a certain multiplier for roof size to reduce having to cut and mess with things? Like a 20x30 roof is best? Or 12x18? I know enough to be dangerous. I am a young widow and my teens and I are planning to build a dry cabin in the next 1-2 years when we move to Alaska. I am power watching video series and learning and after you spoke about planning ahead when doing the underlayment (believe it was video #14 of this series and YES! PLEASE do a video over formulas. I believe in math too but wouldn't mind cheat sheets based on standard sizes.) could I reduce a lot of beginner struggle by making everything certain size? I know you market and teach to those who do this for a living but I REALLY appreciate your sharing. I also agree you can never have too many tools but when you can't rent and you are only building a few dry cabins what is the financial roi....can you do a series for good, better, best in which tools per job? Ex: hand brake vs that super fancy roller thing. OR hammer and nail vs roof nailer. I understand power always wins but when you are a beginner and have minimal/basic tools ... Another thing I would love to see is a price range for what materials cost and how it would compare to an alternative. Standing seam vs metal roof vs dimensional shingles type thing. Thanks again. I am loving this cabin series and while I wanted a metal roof I am now wanting the standing seam. I never understood why you'd screw through and create a weak point but didn't realize there was an alternative. Stay safe!

Most roofs have a pattern, and it looks like you've got it down. I could teach you how to put a 1" dbl folded seam in the top of that valley, eliminate those screws and you'd only need caulking at the pinch points. Also, putting in J-chan at the peak and boxing the pan tops, makes it super easy for cap install. Anyways, good job guys.

Hi been watching with I very interested how this would look with copper tin would everything be almost the same

Dude your a Badass !!!! Great Video and Instructions along the way on that Valley

Another great job by an all round professional Tradie. Respect from Australia.

Master at work..good work.. be safe and happy weekend , see you guys on the next one..!!

When I’m installing the hemmed panel in a valley, I place a scrap piece of underlayment under the offset cleat. It protects the valley pan from the hem scratching it. Thanks for the great content. I’ve learned a lot.

Kyle, thanks for another awesome video. I didn't catch it, what metal are you using and what Gauge?

Love your work man. I work for a HVAC company and we started doing metal roofs and I can never seem to get the first and the last panel to match in size because of how it grows by the end. Have you ever done a video on layout?

always use peel stick ice shield my man, always. Dont think about it, dont complain that it costs more, dont think you can get away with it, just do it. Fellow builder out.

You definitely give your client his moneys worth of attention to detail. Thanks for the content.

The attention to the details are outstanding. I hope when I go to build my building the builders stress the details this much.

midwest make a long bill offset snip that is awesome for cutting both max rib and standing seam,just use short bills for cutting through the double thicknesses such as the male part of the standing seam. i have recently started using a 6" depth dewalt bandsaw(20 volt) and after adding the 1" for the fold cut the line then cut through the male side at the fold line ,use snips to miter the cut to intersect at end of band saw cuts at the end of the day your hands will thank you ...summer time hand cramps sux and hurt

Is it possible to miter that valley W trim and solder the joint from the back... maybe work up a piece with 2' tails into the exact point you need based on your math and the valley. Use like a 2" strip to go across the back of the seam to get a good hold of both pieces as they come together. Smooth as can be, a lot less joints and laps.

nice detail... most metal roofing work is cobbled together with globs of caulking/terrible metal work. ya got to have some really good sheet metal skills to do a decent roof...

Why not grab a piece of high temp peel and stick and put it overtop of that area? Just enough so you don't see it when putting the ridge capping on? Surely peel and stick is better than your cut and caulking.

Nice man here in the Netherlands we don't have this much but I love it

Fantastic work guys class , great video thanks

That detail is for the birds.u can flash over the z up past both valley.the z tends to stand a bit high which causes problems with ridge cap

thanks for your opinion, beside i appreciate you shed and coop related things building programs

Looks good on a new roof. But you cannot do this on an old roof, did the exact same thing today just not with standing seam, we did ours with r panel. Yippee. But he's right its tough to do.

Hi Kyle, Any chance you will ever show us the pre-production planning, blueprints, etc of the buildings? How about how you calculate the amount of wood and steel? More background, please. Oh, and your attention to detail is out of this world. It's a joy to watch.

Be honest Kyle is there a full crew behind the scenes doing most of the work and thats when the camera stopped recording lol because that is a helluva job for 2 guys and very fast work. From part 5 how many days have you been at this job so far. great job

Really impressive work! I'm learning a lot about mostly technique and the different products you use which is basically the majority of what a carpenter does for the most part I would say. I'm going to build a shop using the method you are using with a metal roof but probably or most likely, wood and brick siding. I was actually thinking of building the framing out of steal since the prices are low right now but I'm not sure. What do you think about building the same buildings that you build out of steal verses wood like you use?

Good morning from St John Parish, Louisiana 24 Oct 20.

Somebody needs to send Kyle a bar of Dr Squatch. Dude keep that hat on!! You’re looking a little woodsy hahaha

Once you know your rake, if your valley is straight, nothing to worry about.

I watched this twice and it is a definitely a teaching moment. I appreciate you on so many levels.

looks real good.

True craftsmen. I sometimes watch alot of videos of this sort and your the only channel I've ever "subscribed" to. Good work guys. Union tin knocker myself

Great job as always! Enjoy watching your work!

Sound job 👍👍

wondering what the advantages of w valley profile compared to v profile

VERY IMPRESSIVE

How you call that a cabin on the woods though 😂 that’s more like a grocery store 😂

All u gotta do it cut straight angles butt them together cap covers it anyway water not gonna run that far up with correct cap and enclosures 😉

Beautiful detail and general job. Thank's

Kyle...Have you or Greg ever had an instance where ya'll were really thankful that you had the safety wire on??

12:50 I thought this video somehow switched to "fan show down" on other channel XDDD

In a past episode you spoke of a preferred ridge vent material. Can you please tell me what it is. I need to redo mine and trust your opinion.

I do it different. I have the ridge cap die into the other slope with tabs fold it up. The cleat that goes in the valley with be on top of the tabs

Curious: I've seen some seamless roofers that use color-matched rivets for some fastening, especially edge connections and drip points that some use sealing screws. Any preference?

Awesome job Kyle and Greg. Can’t wait to see the ridge cap details. Do you have that hat available to buy?

I know you build these as a full time job but wish you could just put these videos out more often. But understand
