For those of you confused, he slips em in, nails em on his way down, grabs another handful and repeats. They don't just sit on the roof, they are locked and nailed together lol
@@BossStatusFamilia the nail tab is exposed at the top right corner. He gonna mail them down slowly though if he’s only pulling one mail out of his bag at a time he should be grabbing a handful
I love the comments from people not realizing that he is going to nail those, not noticing the little nailing holes in the corner of each shingle, not looking to see the other nails already in the ones that are set and not understanding you could never put up shingles without nails! LMAO! This video is roofing ASMR combined with hilarious comments!
He then goes back and nails all of them... look at the ones already set, they each have a nail in the right top corner. He is showing how fast he sets them.👍👍👍
Hahahah what an idiot. He think he went back and nailed each one. Tell you've never worked as a roofer without telling us you've never worked as a roofer
My parents had an aluminum roof installed in 1980 in the very rainy Vancouver BC. It was not loud in the rain. 42 years later, it's still there and looks great. No colour change either.
To everybody who's like "doesn't that need nails" you can see he nailed the previous row, and the tabs are on the opposite side. The video ends with him pulling out a hammer and sinking, what I imagine is, the first nail going entirely down the roof, just like he did on the other side.
I love how nobody even fucking looks to see if there’s other nails in there which there is keep it up homie good fast worker Edit seriously look at the nails in the shingles
I only see nails at the top though, I see no reason strong wind couldn't just blow under that interlocked roof from below, use the leverage, and blow it all away at once.
He can go back and nail them as he goes back down lay another run nail them etc etc but looks like they get one nail per shingle at least it’s a long nail lol not that it’s gonna help but being interlocking 🤷🏻♂️ maybe it’ll hold up to bad weather
I see your last row was nailed off so 👌 I'm assuming you nail this one all at once. Taking a grueling task and production lining it is how you make the big bucks
Basically he has to go up every row. Then nail it coming back down. Then run em back up and repeat. That’s a lot of trips up and down the slope. Way more than an Asphalt roof.
Everyone of them are nailed. Each tab has 1 nail. Look at the ones he already had down, and then look at the tabs on the ones you see him slide in. He knows what he is doing. The metal shingles slide and lock and the nail he puts in them on the way back down, locks everything in. Good work !!
Hard hat? Check. Steel toes? Check. Harness? Check. Lanyard? Check. Now that all this shit is out of the car and in the garage I can finally go to work.
It’s residential, no hard hat or steel toes required, technically the harness isnt either but personally ive had a few close calls without one, depending on the pitch ill wear one. But at least here in TN for something residential like this none of that Ppe you listed is required.
@@Flyxln you're so full of shit your eyes are brown: There is nowhere in North America PPE is not required on a jobsite. It's just isn't enforced in TN. Apparently you care more about looking good for the guys on site than you do falling off a roof, becoming paralyzed, and burdening your family with having to feed you, clothe you, bathe you, and change your diapers every day. Stop being an idiot and wear your goddamn PPE
So what is you need to change a damaged one in the middle of the roof. Do you have to unclip them all to get to it? Or is there a way to just remove one piece and put a new one in?
And when you have storm damage instead of pulling up 1 or 2 shingles and replacing them the home owner has to pull off all the shingles to reach the ones needing fixing...
There thin metal theres ways to pick them out of the field if need be. They are costly and not really a heavy duty product. Hope he clips and nails the corners. Yikez
Might want to check your eye site every onc is nailed. Look at the tabs on the one's that are already down they just don't show him going back and nailing them.
The inter-locking folds in the shingles prevent wind from getting under the shingle. This gives the wind the “continuous path” the new “FORTIFIED” standards seek to instill in roofing standards here in the Gulf South. While I do not think the PermaLock shingle is approved yet for “FORTIFIED” I have no doubt that with a 160mph wind speed warranty that this shingle will pass if they submit it to the FORTIFIED Home program for evaluation.
I’m pretty sure all the edges are hemmed to a drip edge at the rakes and eaves. I will say that 1 nail per sqft coverage seems a little light in comparison to other methods. But different products work depending on the region they are recommended for. Thin gauge aluminum sounds kinda stupid but I live in an area where shingles are dominant and standing seam steel roofs are rare. I’ve seen plenty of barn steel that looks 70 plus years old. I’m recently recommending 26 gauge steel with Sherwin Williams paint. The Amish in my area sell it for 2.70 per linear foot. 1.25 sqft is coverage. They also sell the accessories for cheaper as well. They crate it professionally and refer a delivery guy that only charges $3 per loaded mile.
Ironically it’s the most expensive. It was quoted 3 times as much as asphalt and 1.5 times as much as other more traditional metal systems when I reroofed
@@michaelnizza414 yeah the guy showed me a sheet metal shingle with sand glued to it. It seemed nice but definitely not worth what they were asking. Especially considering how they bragged at how simple the install was for them haha
im not a roofer but isnt adding nails defeating the whole impermeability of the vapor barrier? what can one do if you dont want to nail shingles what other options are there?
All these comments are making me cry lol. The damn shingles are nailed off one row at a time. Same way asphalt same way as tile. It's tacked down then nailed off after you make sure your run is straight.
@@FatKidFunny he's not even nailing off to the rafter it's nailed through the plywood like everybody's saying that shit will get sucked off you see how easy that nail goes in it will come out just as easy

He has the freedom to choose whatever PPE he wants. I’d make different choices, and I don’t expect everyone else to make the same, nor do I want to control everyone else’s choices
I have an Interlock roof which is similar and I love it. It's been through 3 bad hail storms in Minnesota with no damage while neighbors shingles got destroyed. Rain is slightly more noticeable but I find it's not so much louder but just a different pitch. Plus it's lifetime warranty and always looks brand new.
@Richard Paige very true, I have met several people who enjoy the sound of rain on a ton roof. Apparently, it's relaxing. I personally find it nice until I'm trying to have a conversation. Lol
@@chadhouse1375 it is a little louder than the asphalt shingles we had before, but really not to bad. The biggest change that we noticed is it’s noticeable cooler upstairs in the summer. The aluminum doesn’t hold the heat like an asphalt shingle roof. What part of the country are you in ?
@@fbarr8540 ya it was a little more expensive than asphalt or a standing seem roof. But, you will never have to replace it, and we have noticed a huge temperature drop in our attic and upstairs in our house. They are aluminum and dissipate heat quickly opposed to asphalt which holds the heat longer. You will definitely want to hire someone with experience to put them on, each shingle in a valley or on a ridge has to be hand cut, formed, and fit.
@@shawnbradford2243 youtube.com/@permalock There's a whole series you can enjoy that will prevent you from questioning the quality of work for this type of install in the future. Best of luck & Enjoy!
@@shawnbradford2243 Shingle needs to be installed before it can be nailed. He installs the run of shingle going up, then nails all the tabs on that run going down. Tab is on the top right corner, can be seen in the video.
He places the shingles as he goes up and nails them as he goes down. Its just a short video. It would be time consuming to nail every shingle after u place it down.
Must be very noisy when it rains. Also when a storm comes now you have flying guillotine shrapnel to avoid decapation. However on a positive note it helps stops embers from igniting your house on fire.
