Less permanent solution, looks worse, and creates issues long-term. Can also void a warranty on some commercial systems

The #1 cause of broken tiles is foot traffic, #2 is wind driven debris. I'm not saying hail doesn't happen, but extremely rare

A properly bent Headwall Flashing, bent 5 degrees more than the angle of the roof (usually 110 degrees but varies per slope), fastened with neoprene OR if it's covered headwall than use a pan head screw then adhere the shingles with 6 drops instead of a consistent bead

I've narrowed it to two possibilities: 1. They were paid on an insurance claim so they had to at least pass a permit to get it re-insured/recoverable depreciation. 2. They plan on selling the house nad want to pretend the roof is brand new

Yep. That's what I'm finding all the time the last few years. Ever since they replaced the department head I find stuff like this daily.

I'm sad to say how far out he is, he probably went with one of the locals rather than getting someone from the city in the same AHJ. Both of the locals in the town are awful

If you mean the curbs, they are fastened into the side of the curb. If you mean the 1-way vents, aka membrane vents, they are not supposed to be.

Eventually it's like second nature.

Very true. I've got a video I'm releasing next month (I like to give a 60-90 day delay) of an EPDM roof they ADHERED in below freezing. Not even a year old, and the whole thing is starting to billow.

@@RoofingFacts I got nothing but respect for the roofers that are able to install these roofs fairly quick in varying weather but most are hurried to increase profit where I’m not surprised if you see something off on all the roofs you’ve been on.

Once in a blue moon, I'll meet a new contractor who does it right. Literally, it's just under every 3 years. Luckily, some of the locals have been through training or had to face a bad report a couple times and I'm noticing the more I emphasize on it, the closer they get

🤣

Really dry climate that day, and I've got a 2 pack a day habit (gum) 🤣

Yep. And salt Sadly about average quality for Residential.

This was strictly in regards to measurements. To my knowledge, none of the 16 major carriers will accept any skydio damage reports.

Agreed. Ruined this family's life

@@RoofingFacts 😂

Roofers came in, did the job at 72mph wind speed requirements in a 110mph area. City claimed they inspected the Microsoft and final. But the flashings were never completed, roof was put on wrong, wrong flashings were used in other places, ventilation wasn't done correct, and it's quite clear the city never actually inspected. A 90mph gust came and devastated the new roof 2 years after construction. That wind should have never had any effect, if @pprbd had ever done its job

Sure thing.

not sure if this is standard practice but the trailer house i live in has a few pipes stickin up through the roof, from my understanding they are something to do with letting low pressure pipes have a atmospheric vent, which allows it to drain? or something?

You are insane

Also, allows sewer gas to escape vs be trapped. Tiolet won't flush w/o vent

@@djaydevedalmost every roof has a “stink pipe” some houses/buildings are different. But you will see one more likely than not.

I think he said on a different video that he's a third-party consultant, but I remember from some of his oldest videos he used to be and installer and now this is his version of "retirement"

@@stevenbarnes4131 thanks Steve I was always wondering because he seems like a combo of all 😂

Sadly on this one, no permit was ever pulled and the company listed on the contract doesn't exist

Bingo.

What do you mean by untouched, i dont see the casing

It was most likely shot up into the air and landed there

I've got a few videos of this you can see ok the channel. This commonly occurs from people firing their guns straight up. Asphalt shingles are relatively soft, so the bullets get lodged in the layers.

CertainTeed was really big here in the early to mid 2000s

"Hail damage" At least once every week I get asked to consult on a tile roof with Potential hail. And it's always chatter

Yep. I've been collecting these since around 2003. Used to be a couple a year. Now it's 1-2 a week.

​@Jyxnion That's a long driveway, nice grass, and I'm about 70% sure i recognize a Mercedes in the background.

@@detumaki That for sure is the suburbs!

People fire guns straight up, and this happens. Shingles are just soft enough to split but the multiple layers end up trapping the bullets. Then I come along and collect because... reasons unknown to even me

Amen. That's exactly it. There's a reason different trades have different licenses. Too bad pprbd hasn't figured it out yet. Stop sending the same inspector for everything on new construction

Yes, there is a reason 95% of roofers (the ones actually installing the roof) are what you blanketly call Mexicans. It's because 18-30 year old white men are horrible labor workers. Takes 5 times as long and subpar results. Coming from a middle aged white guy, I'll take a Mexicans over a Casper any day of the week and I guarantee better results and no bitiching and moaning all day long.

Racists.

That's a bit racist. Cheapest bidder work

I was told that the roof is never checked by pikes peak regional building department on a new construction build. If it's a reroof, they do. (Tho some may argue this as well)

​@allaboutroofing2 That is correct! Technically, the roof is required to be checked during new construction. However, rather than sending a roof inspector, they send the "general" inspector, who is there to look at almost every trade. With an emphasis on checking everything, their training and certification process is only about 4% roofing, with over half of that 4% being on safety. Realistically, less than 2% of their training is about roofing, and with so many roofing types that means they barely have the capacity to identify different roof types. Then, they are given an extremely limited amount of time where they're expected to inspect framing, insulation, electrical, etc. So in the end, they have continuously lowered roofing on the priority list to check, and thus we get pprbd failing to inspect a roof for even the most basic codes established when pprbd was formed. This is why my channel constantly features roofs missing felt, installed upsidedown, missing flashings, missing drip edge, etc. Basic stuff you can observe from a ladder. Trying and hoping maybe with enough attention pprbd might finally do the jobs we all pay them to do.

Someone cleaned out my entire bit case before driving out, and I was hours away from a hardware store. It was this or pliers.
