Thanks for this explanation!!!!!!

Fantastic info and fantastic thanks

Great insightful video!!! ❤ Question. Who did you use to make the 3d animation for this video? Thanks again for the amazing content!

Great video..one question, on an R-panel roof if it looks somewhat bend in or stepped on hard..like someone stepped on it very hard or hit it with something heavy hard and now it looks like bend downwards and to the sides where it was stepped on....will this case the R-panel to leak?

The life of the neoprene seals is 20-25 years if the screws have been seated onto the roof correctly. The specification by the roofing manufacturers is to put both a 6mm diameter bead of caulking at the lower end of the lap joint, AND a 3mm bead covering the top cut edge of the underlap sheet. This prevents condensation running down inside the top roof sheet and into the overlap area. Without this extra bead the water will accumulate again in the joint and it will cause rust. If you just seal the top surface it won't stop the water and rust accumulating again.

Thanks for the video, great stuff on your channel.

Sometimes you use turbo polyseal and sometimes super silicone seal in what seems to me as the same type of job , what is the product difference

Great video sweetheart love ❤️

how would you suggest sealing the seams on a residential metal roof where aesthetics matter and I cannot have big white stripes across my roof?

That's a thick layer of seal.. Wouldn't it just encourage the water to well up and sit there? Take the washers off and silicone around the screw.

how do u fix at the cap. wind has blown all of the butyl away how to repair this. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

I never use a gasket on the lap seam high humidity areas metal has condensation water will build up

Great video! I've watched several of your videos, all good. I'am currently repairing my flat roof motorcycle trailer. It's a large one piece metal roof with with a 90 degree drip edge down both sides and across the back. I've removed the drip edge, unscrewed the roof and wire wheeled all components down to bare metal. I reinstalled the roof panel with Solar Seal 900 and screwed back down. I now have to reinstall the drip edge. My thought was to Solar seal that down as well. I would like to use the Bergstrom Poly sealer and tape down the top side of the drip edge where it meets the roof, which would be the first line of defense against water. I'm just not sure which of the two, Turbo Poly or Silicone Seal to use. Also any thoughts as far as using Solar seal on bottom side of drip edge or should I use some other product? Thanks for your time, your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I have an 18 year old double torch down commercial roof(both layers were torched down). Some of my seems are separating, anywhere from an ⅛ inch to ½ inch. The whole roof is 10,000 square feet it is happening on about 5% of the roof. What do you suggest for repairing it? Possibly reheating seems? You comment would be much appreciated.

Hi doctor, can I ask how to clean the brush after applying turbo poly? Do I need to buy special cleaning product?

Tried silicon on top of the screws, leaked after a week. I've just bought a box of new screws, gotta change them all over..

When do you use Super Silicone Seal and when do you use Turbo Poly Seal?

What size type fasteners do you recommend?

I have applied a silicone coating to the entire roof (Tropicool) and am still experiencing leaks at the seams. What should I do? Caulk won’t stick now that it is coated, but this silicone coating isn’t doing enough. This is a bit different though because it is on a school bus. Any ideas?

You shouldn't put screws in the valley, they should only be put on the ridge. Most of the water runs down the valley, the surface shouldn't be penetrated.

I was watching many many videos on how to inatall metal roof....and a saw many with no hidden screws, and mostly all of them use no sealing...i was this is not right, this will leak... Now i am seen a couple of videos with roof leaking., and how to fix it.

Why then not do it as a prevention before it starts to leak?

The Bengali way of doing it
