HOW TO INSTALL RIDGE CAP | ROOFER TRAINING 

Trying to figure how to do the ridge cap that has a ridge end dying in the middle of the the field .

Love the improper use of fall protection

5:30 Finishing the end of the ridge cap

Safety rope sitting there unused... even when they're 6 inches from the edge of the roof. Yep.. must be "professionals"....

why do you clowns even bother with the fall protection??!!

I have a question about a ridge cap where metal flashing California valleys meet a main valley and how to do that properly

Wish camera shot would have been closer. I know would have been hard with a drone.

I really haven't seen a video yet that tells me how to go from ride cap into a T intersection of another ridge cap . Figure it on my own try to

Just wonderful, been searching for "how to build a truss for a shed" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Beybigail Nonpareil Breakthrough - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a smashing exclusive guide for discovering how to create better sheds and improve your woodworking without the hard work. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my work buddy got excellent success with it.

6:12 I'm curious what do you do with the expose nails of that last shingle placement? Do you leave it or calk with something?

guy # 1 falls, then system arrest saves him. guy # 2 falls, an ambulance comes, insurance claims he died without proper PPE use. edit: Now I realize that none of them is attached to the roof. got confused by the air hose....lol

Great Videos! This was just what I was looking for. Getting ready to shingle a mini barn shed for my Deere. Was unsure of terminating the ridge cap but now I know. Thanks!

Why do some shingles get 4 roof nails, others get 3 or just 2? JoeB

Not sure why this video was recommended or why the guys using harness but not connecting them to anything .....either way I watched the whole video

GAF seal a ridge instructions literally tell you to nail on the wrong side of the tar strip. It’s ridiculous.

exactly what i was looking for

Could you cut architectural shingles into ridge cap shingles?

11:15 Legend has it that he is still trying to slide-in that cap shingle to this day.

Can't believe i just watched the guy shoot four nails into that last cap. No excuse for exposed nails. Just bull it down with roof cement.

Think the camera should have been closer to the action for greater effect.

How do I see how to end the 2 sides so the roof is ready to do the ridge cap??

At the edge where you terminated how would that protect from water leakage? those nails were bare

Wow three years ago and this is a good quality video what is it 4K or is it just my iPhone 11. Most videos on RU-vid don’t look this good nope.

What would you sugest sence i live in florida

Do you have to 45 the nail end

Awesome video can you upload some closeup footage of mail placement for all the gusts that miss the doubled par of a shingle. Tired of picking shingles off the ground in nd. Or coming on jobs with nails through the face

Oyes me gustaría aver mirado cómo cómo se isieron esos valley’s porque a mi me isieron un cochinero y ahora quiero aserlo yo

Hello. I am not a construction guy, but watching what's going on next door is worrying. My neighbors have a new build going on. It's been raining. The inside of the house looks like a lake. The roofing plywood (Weyerhaueser Gold) is soaked. The black roofing paper is wet and wrinkled. When the guy works, tiles are going down on top of wet paper. No edge tiling is being used at all. It's not my project and I should just probably butt out, but I feel my young neighbors are not getting the best job for the money. Is there an email address where I could send a few pics? If you can confirm my suspicions, then at least I can warn them. Thanks.

As a new roofing project manager, are there any tips that you can recommend?

These are really, really tightly put together roof shingles!!! Wish all these wannabe Floridian roofers learn from this video!!!

What's the diff between bullnose rigecaps versus shingle rigecap

Great video on ridge cap. I have a section of roof that is part of an A-frame with a very steep angle and wanted to know what you would recommend for a shingle (or other type of cover). I think it is 120deg angle and roughly 40ft long. The current shingle is about 18 years old and they used a standard shingle that has held up fine, but not ideal. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks for the video. I just had 20 feet of ridge cap blow off my roof in a tornado. I installed the roof myself 5 years ago; that being my first ever roofing project (owens corning duration). What you showed certainly was not my nailing schedule. I put one on each side like my shop teacher showed me back in '91. And the whole piece lifted off pulling the shingle thru the nail and depositing the shingles in the front yard in one piece. ill be on the roof saturday learning my lesson

How far up do you take the shingle over the roof point, should it go over to the other side with it or cut it at the line ? I watched there is a debate over this with some saying it will raise the caping.

So you guys add 4 nails per shingle .....my question is this is for high wind now i live in michigan would this apply to my ridge cap here? Or if not would it be added protection of blowing winds keeping the shingle secure? Im new to this and i like that your company does this thank you for thia video

I have never done a roof before, but wouldn't it be better to cap the short ridge before shingling the main slope to keep from having to lift and nail under the shingles (near the end of video)?

When laying a hip shingle in the precipice of 2 conjoining ridges, do you put an extra nail in that hip shingle and all hip shingles like that, or how would i go about securing those hip shingles correctly?

Is there a way to make your first ridge cap shingle hug the peak ridge? The starting shingle is at the front of the house on a peak.

I'm just hoping these are one and half inch nails! and why not screwdriving them nails instead to make it even 200 mile winds warranty😂

I just saw this video and was worried I did my ridge cap wrong before, but I did it the same way in video what a relief.

It would have been nice to see a little bit more of a close up to see what you were doing. Aerial video doesn't really do much for me

Is it wise to install a roll a of metal tin underneath the ridge cap shingles to have added leak proofing? I live in South Miami, Fla.

Ok

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.

Any reason why you guy are not trying to nail through the lower shingle along the ridge? Putting the 4 nails in is great, but if you hit the shingle below wouldn't it be better?

great video...feel for his back ...

doing a barn can you send a video on that

Are the nails penetrating the shingle underneath, so each shingle has two rows of nails?

Never understood layered layered ridge capping, but it seems to work. My issue is, shingles rely on slope to shed water, but this is a horizontal surface and any wind is going to blow underneath the cap. I'm not saying anything is wrong with the job, but I wouldn't mind some feedback

is it really necessary to have a ridge cap on a house?

Great. The best crew doesn't even tie off. When having the Harness on.

If you had to stick around for more than 15 seconds, get the fuck off the roof. BIG TIME

Beautiful job. 👍

Fine job Gentlemen!

Aren't you supposed to hit the tar strip with the nail? I heard that's where the nail should go as it's stronger for windy conditions it'll hold better and it also acts as an adhesive for the shingle above it.

I have a roof that is all in good condition except the ridge cap. Can just the ridge cap be replaced, so I don't have to redo the whole roof?

Wow these guys do Great work!

Im a visual learner. What state do you do roofing?

Clean finish

Teamwork

thanks

I had about 7 ridge cap shingles blow off in the hurricane. Any issues reusing those shingles?

Nice but there is about 2 minutes of content. Most of the video the installer is doing the same thing repeatedly.

MOST ANNOYING VOMITOUS AD MUSIC EXTANT!

Blah blah blah blah in this video you will see a video of some visual aids of roofing and during this video you will see some video and visual and keep in mind I will be providing a narration and blah blah blah

Are the nails placed on either side of the tar strip?

Can I get away without buying ridge cap? Say... Cut my own out of the extra shingles?

To much blabla

I'm doing a small shed. Where my shingles meet at the ridge there is two inches on each side where you can still see the plywood. Should I just cover with the ridge cap? In the video it looks like they folded another row of shingles over and then put the ridge cap over that.
