slating on plywood is a blessing, slating on laths is a nightmare when they bounce

@jamesburton668 Год назад

He’s slating on to OSB but you are right I’d much prefers to slate onto a membranes board but the laths are better cos not so many holes in sarking. They do bounce at times though

You should cut the corner of the slate. Boston hip only need 2 nails. Supposed to cut on side to but to the other . Then do reverse. ? Am i wrong

cost a fortune in copper soakers plus ridge?

@JamesGodish 7 лет назад

What do you do with the ends of the copper star ridge?

@jcjenkins01 7 лет назад

Probably cut an end cap to fit and then either rivet it or solder it into place.

@JamesGodish 7 лет назад

Joe Jenkins That's what I thought. Thanks for the reply. I think I may try this.

What was the point of doing close miter hips if your going to put a copper soakers plus slates for hips

@turnervideostv1295 3 года назад

Na look closer, they’ve done two different hip to show :)

It's for waterproofing, any water that gets through the join stream down the soaker... You should run a bead of silicone 2 inches from the middle join both sides. In the 1800's they used cement

@clifflayman837 8 лет назад

I prefer the roofing cement method, this method is looks very unprofessional. who uses a drill to install slate?

@tomlee6684 7 лет назад

Cause roofing cement on slate isn't "unprofessional" at all..............

@martinbyrne6643 4 года назад

His drill bit is to long ‘ what are these guys at 😳

@jamesburton668 Год назад

Lead soakers far cheaper!

@scottbreckenridge5213 2 года назад

Those mitred are so bad....

@nigelbanks3738 6 лет назад

Yeah really helpful when you are on a roof 30 feet of the floor. Trying to walk up the slates in damp conditions. What a waste of internet space!!!!!!! How about doing something useful. Like showing how to spread weight when walking on the roof!!!!!?

Sorry guys, very expensive way of doing things. Wouldn’t last five minutes where I’m from. Wales , the home of the Worlds premium slate. Those hip fixings are way to flimsy to withstand real weather. 🤷🏻‍♂️
