Was excited to start a roof demo after watching this video but the paper was so bridle it just broke apart as we tried to roll it lmaoo. Thanks for the video though!
30 years ago, that was the system to install the wood shakes, now days , is required to have solid sheathing to nail the wood shakes on. Codes have changed a lot, system is still the same, and yes you have to install plywood sheathing all over your house, try to go with OSB plywood sheathing, it's cheaper than CDX. Good luck.
this is out of topic I'm not in the roofing business but in the satellite business. does the wood shakes brake if we were to climb them to get to our satellite on the roof? slot of our customer sometimes have an old dish on the peak an would like for us to remove them an we just say no because we think we might break the shakes when we get on them
Where are you located? I'm in Sacramento and I'm not sure if I can install radiant barrier over the existing 1x6 planks or not. Any help or suggestions?
This is how we do it. This is how we do it. Using a pitch fork to tear off roofs is very difficult. It catches everything. Simply cut off the outside parts of a regular tearoff shovel leaving the middle where the kicker exists. It makes it easier and faster to avoid all the sudden stops that does nothing but beats your body up. This is how we do it I guarantee if you get a shovel designed to tear off shakes , you will fly through the tearoff , then you can brag about ,, this is how we do it
+eric garcia , I have a 1700 sq ft old roof with two layers ,shakes on bottom and shingles on top with no plywood underneath , have to tear out entire roof. ( hemet .ca area )
All fine and dandy with felt on the roof. Otherwise ready to pound lots of nails. Hate woodshake roofs especially the really old ones . Nasty dusty yuck
Tearing wood shakes off screws my sinuses up every time from that nasty ass dust ,I get migraine headaches from the dust ,I can work in coal tar pitch tear off all morning ,then mop n roll fresh hot pitch all afternoon with no sinus problems but wood shakes destroy me .
remove it with the pitch fork ,it's easy , just try to rip 2 to 3 lines at each time . I have a video about some guys removing that kind of roof . watch it and you will see it's not that hard. good luck. Eric.
So when they installed this shingle system the base cross structure with the gaps is a few square feet from being completely sheathed. I'm going to replace mine with composite. I have to lay plywood sheathing completely over the existing surface. How cheep are these builders that they can't even fill that sq ft gap. Well now I'm paying. wah
How do you remove the nails from the wood shake
"This is how we do it." Thanks for the video.
You are the man eric

Does radiant barrier OSB really make a difference? If so, how much?
That looks fun
good job guys
if the roof do not have the tar paper, how you take off the wood shingles ?
Light them on fire 🔥 unless you want to keep the structure 🤣🤣

No. You'll be fine. just make sure you screw the satellite on a board and not in the gap between them

How much was this job?
Same here
how much does a work like this would cost?
+latin ontheroad it all depends on the type of plywood to be installed to make it solid sheathing and the final roofing materials installed

Eso es todos primo
you don't remove shingles the same way remove shakes, shingles you remove them by hand, watch my video how to remove shingles..
