Installing A Lead Code 6. 4 Hipped Flat Roof. Part 1 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EQ2YKGJ8t4c.html It’s good stuff. I think you can see more of it in this vid. Thanks for watching.
Amateur Question Please : Why do you use a copper strip ? Is it just to give something to bend the end around ? Why copper particularly ? Thank you. Love your videos. You should have 100k subscribers, and it will surely come as you show great skill. Greetings from Prague, CZ
Yes its sole purpose is just to give a straight edge to fold to. You can use copper or stainless steel. Other metals react with the lead. Copper is the easiest to work with. Stainless steel you have to pre hole. I really wish I did have 100k subscribers. Maybe one day lol.
@@slbleadworks Thank you. Give it time - it will come ! Keep the faith ! Not sure if you use Instagram or TikTok, but if not, you might be able to drive views here by guiding viewers there over here. Just a thought !
This is absolutely fine like this. There’s a valley saddle underneath everything you see. Also the lead apron you’re referring to has a welted edge to stop any water travelling in the unlikely event it makes its way that far back.
Clueless you just don’t like it because you’re sht at it simple as that if you knew how to use the system properly you would know how good it is. There’s no such thing as a bad roofing system just bad installers
Interesting Balcombe did a few jobs just down from there Cuckfield and Haywards Heath.. That's a big roof and it is unusual that it is a Mansard type roof not sure why in the countryside usually in the town unless there was height restrictions. Seems a lot of work rather than making it a normal roof like the one next to it. Jezzo that's a lot of lead on that big roof that would have kept you busy for a while. I know nothing about EPDM never worked on any. That tape you dropped reminded me of the renovation of the Queens hotel in Brighton cars parked next or under the scaffold (not supposed to of course) and someone dropped a hammer landed next to the car must have bounced off a few poles on the way down. Excellent work Stuart well done interesting.
I’ve worked on EPDM roofs a few times now. I recently worked on one that was installed 10 years ago. And it was still bonded to the lead apron like glue. I think it’s pretty good. You just need to be careful as it punctures easily. But I think it can easily be repaired. Yep, trust me to drop my tape on camera 🤦🏻♂️😂. I actully wasn’t on this one for very long. Because it was a straight line. It all went on fairly quick. But lovely views. Thanks for watching.
