A lot of comments here about how admirable Kyle is doing as a father and teacher BUT Cole, sir, I don't think you'll truly understand how much your father adores the time you spend with him and how much he deeply appreciates his son not only learning his trade but actually desiring to spend time with him until you're a father too. Every boy becomes a man. Some men become fathers. Great fathers though are great not because of their efforts only but by being given great sons. As my grandfather always told his grandsons: Cole, you're a gentleman and a scholar. Keep that attitude throughout your life and much happiness will follow you all of your days. With an abundance of happiness those around you will shine too. That's what we see here. Thank you both for sharing these moments with us!
I love this. I wish I was able to do or learn this kind of stuff with my own dad. I have a 3 1/2-year-old and I'm already getting him into helping me with projects that are safe enough for him to handle. Fatherhood is definitely something special, especially when you can teach them things you are passionate about, and they enjoy it along with you.
@RR Buildings. Kyle, you are teaching construction to everyone via youtube. it's like getting shop class every week. you do a good job explaining why and how.
You are a good Dad. Taking the time to teach your sons is an admiral thing. You are teaching them much more than carpentry. You are teaching them how to navigate life, and how to do it successfully.
My father was a good man but he never taught me squat because he was busy working 3 jobs to raise us 4 kids. I remember the few times though he spent quality time with us but they were few and far between. After my father retired I’ve been able to spend much time with him as I don’t have kids. What I’m saying is enjoy your time with your father as time goes by so quickly. Making memories is everything.
Your son seems very keen to learn and takes everything on board, like his attention is always there. Cole - you can NEVER ask too many questions, and there's no such thing as a stupid question. You are young, be a sponge, take as much in now and you will reap the beneifts the older you get. Top work
Good job teaching! It takes a few times to get the screw technique down. My Dad had a totally different way of teaching in the late 60's early 1970's. Don't care to go back there. Top notch work as we have come to know over the years from you and your team!
"You didnt do anything wrong" "but heres what i would say you could do". Youd never believe how much better my development as a tradesman wouldve went if i had this kind of constructive criticism when i was learning. EVERYONE makes mistakes, with not exceptions, and youre going about it in such a good way Kyle.
It's awesome to see how you get your son out on the job sites to help and learn a life skill. My grandfather did the same with me when we built exclusive homes up at Incline Village, Lake Tahoe, NV.
I was learning metal roofs from a guy in my state and he was awful man. Couldn’t teach anything without making you feel stupid for asking questions. Always had a crumby outlook and was just stubborn and ornery as all hell. I had a blow out with him on a job and quit on him in the middle of the day because I was so done with the way he treated me. Dude was a great roofer he knew his stuff but that doesn’t mean a thing when you can’t teach it. Watching this videos really solidifies the fact that there are good leaders out there who can teach and explain as they go. I wish I was on your crew when I was learning.
so amazing to see such a strong father and son bond, Cole is getting more and more confident he's going to be your future full time eployee working with greg
I know I don’t leave much comments as I should but it’s nice seeing Cole in the videos! Nice to see you teaching your son the trade! Keep up the good work Kyle 👊🏽
And the whole time Cole is thinking to himself I need to do well in school so I can get a job that doesn't have me crawling around on somebody's roof in the middle of winter
Awesome Kyle, I wish my father had taught me with the patience you give your son. It's awesome that he can joke right back with you. Obvious respect for one another but companionship all the way. Great job guys! Been following the build, more than expressive, thank you for the videos. I'm about to start building my first home, (small barndominium) and have watched a few different videos and by FAR your videos are so much more professional and explainable. Thank you!✌️
Did the roof of my shop and bodged it up, not horrible, it's dry and leak-free, but definitely not perfectly square and plenty of small oil canning. Wish I found these videos 8 years ago!
"OK you're trying to send it to Mars there..." That had me laughing. I'm a father and really appreciate the relationship building here. Well done, guys.
Brings back a million memories of me working for my old man building houses when I was old enough to swing a hammer. Didn’t like it then, grateful for it now. ❤
@RR Buildings On you duck bills for closing the hem take some felt and adhere it to the duck bills then you don't risk scratching the metal. Have a set that is set up for hemming with felt so it doesn't scratch than have a regular set for normal heming and bending.
My dad had a handyman company,and we always fixed everything around the house ourselves. I have always had a white colored job, but I have said thousands and thousands over the years by being able to do most of the stuff around the house myself. Not so much anymore becuase of health problems, but now I know what to look for when someone does a good or crappy job.
Kyle you are a lucky man to have a son who enjoys his work like dad enjoys it !!! I sure was a lucky cat working with my dad , who passed away a couple of weeks ago.
Recently found your channel thru Perkins Bros. I love the content. This is the first series I'm watching, I started at the beginning. It's nice to see y'all bonding over working. He's a good kid.
What a great video and knowledge for cole and time with dad he'll never forget.... hopefully he will tell his son about the time he was putting the roof on rr hq 2.0 with his dad....
The cedar breather is great stuff used it on my garage three years ago when I put my cedar roof on wished I would’ve had a 27 years ago when I did the house I had to fur every course with a one by inch and a half a lot of extra work will be changing the roof on the house next year definitely going to use cedar breather again
Now that I've watched this...I can't trust anyone to build my roof. I'm gonna want it done just like what you did with the WeatherLogic and VaporDry SA.
I hope you appreciate Greg when you get him back. He knows every move to make and you can trust he is doing the right job on his end without you having to check everything. It’s definitely a lot harder when you are trying to teach someone and get the job done.
Ok. I think I've been watching Kyle's videos too long. Cole makes a gesture at 18:05 when he says, "I made a choice to smack it with my hand," that looks exactly like a gesture that Kyle has made hundreds of times. It's weird. Just the little things that a father passes on to his son. Also, really cool that this video was so much father and son working together. Really awesome seeing the knowledge and skill transfer.
@6:10 the screw tightness, use a drill/driver with a clutch setting and set it up and forget it. Also some impact drivers have settings like Srews, impact and heavy impacts like my Dewalt 887, i also remember a milwauke impact had a specific setting for exactly this type of an installation
You may want to use a plastic hammer to tap the metal seams as if you continue to hit with fist-wrist, down the road as you get older, you could develop arthritis.
Good job Cole. I know it's tough to follow an expert like your pops but if you do you'll become an expert of your own and it's a more valuable skillset than it was when your dad was learning because contractors were a dime a dozen. Stick with it
Im going to have the shingles replaced on my house in the near future and I want to have standing seam metal installed, my only fear is finding someone that can do the quality work like you here in West Virginia.
You and Cole are hysterical, it’s nice to see you guys going back and forth. I’d like to see more of Greg interacting like that. I’m sure he does. And it just doesn’t make the cut. lol
I despise extra modes on tools,like modes on impact drivers. However they are useful for the newbies. One extra benefit of cedar breather,should help avoid oil can in the panel field. I remember someone on IG using two 1/4 backer rods per snap lock panel. Very few jobs are rocket science, but there is a science to every task.
LOve your work, love the videos. My only two suggestions is, why dont you have him use a rubber mallet to set the panel? Thats what i did with my standing, snap lock roof and it worked well. Second, i used a screw gun with my clutch set to the correct torque to set my screws every time. That also worked well.
Give that poor kid a rubber mallet lol his hand/fist is going to be swollen, black and blue after pounding all those panels on... Great work though!! I check square different but there's more than one way to do things and it's good to see you are teaching to leave the tab on. It's very true no one does that anymore.
Great visions! With the metal not being in direct contact with the wood ply, is there any extra concern about hail damage? Would you go with a thicker gauge? Looking forward to the next instalment..! 😎
Really nice roof panels no exposed screws gives it a much cleaner look and less likely to have any leaks or screws loosening up . I’m very interested to see what Your Ridge Cap is gonna be like. I’m curious if it is also gonna be a pop into or slide into groove channel system or the traditional metal roof Ridge Cap. ?
Hi Kyle, Great vid as always. I know you'll think I'm nagging again but you've got to lead by example, especially when it comes to Cole. He's digesting your disregard for a fall-restraint system. You're wearing 90% of it but you're not hooked-up. That's the equivalent of wearing 0%. Thanks for putting it on later. Off soap-box. :)

The way you teach is great. It’s no wonder Greg can do such good quality. It was taught by a patient leader.
Kyle irons his pillowcases and cross measures for square before putting on the pillow! I love the detail he has.
What a great relationship you two have. Great job Mom and Dad. Fun video.
My father was a good man but he never taught me squat because he was busy working 3 jobs to raise us 4 kids.

Very well said.
It is always great to see young apprentice Cole - good job. It is also good to see father - son working on a project that will last a good long time.
Good stuff teaching the young fella the trade Kyle, reminds me of me and my old man, good times!
Your son seems very keen to learn and takes everything on board, like his attention is always there. Cole - you can NEVER ask too many questions, and there's no such thing as a stupid question.

I was folding eaves for years before my dad let me up on the roof to fasten panels! Keep it up Cole!

The best part of this whole series is seeing you show your son how to do it.
So great to watch father and son work together.
so amazing to see such a strong father and son bond, Cole is getting more and more confident he's going to be your future full time eployee working with greg

I can tell Kyle had a lot of “proud dad” moments here! The future of RR looks prosperous! Well done Gents!
Who doesn't love workin on stuff with their old man?! 😁 great video, love the look of a standing seam roof
If I didn't have projects of my own going on...I could watch you guys all day!
Good bonding!
Did the roof of my shop and bodged it up, not horrible, it's dry and leak-free, but definitely not perfectly square and plenty of small oil canning. Wish I found these videos 8 years ago!
Everyone’s disappointed in there first metal roof, and even when you start to master it you’ll beat your self up over the little imperfections.
come on man, it's a shop, suppose to be rough on the edges
"OK you're trying to send it to Mars there..." That had me laughing. I'm a father and really appreciate the relationship building here. Well done, guys.
Brings back a million memories of me working for my old man building houses when I was old enough to swing a hammer. Didn’t like it then, grateful for it now. ❤
Roof looks GREAT! I really appreciate the take along. I see having the layout mark top and bottom is critical. Thanks!
@RR Buildings On you duck bills for closing the hem take some felt and adhere it to the duck bills then you don't risk scratching the metal. Have a set that is set up for hemming with felt so it doesn't scratch than have a regular set for normal heming and bending.
Ahh, now I know how my roofer was supposed to do it! Doing it myself next time. Love your attention to detail!
Good work Cole, people are going to be real lucky to have you work on their properties in the future
Both of my boys worked with me on framing houses, thankful for that time
Good morning. Cole knows his dad and his dad certainly knows Cole. Father, son relationship is indeed special.
My dad had a handyman company,and we always fixed everything around the house ourselves. I have always had a white colored job, but I have said thousands and thousands over the years by being able to do most of the stuff around the house myself.

Father and son time ... precious
Kyle you are a lucky man to have a son who enjoys his work like dad enjoys it !!! I sure was a lucky cat working with my dad , who passed away a couple of weeks ago.
Sorry for your loss. Hopefully videos like this bring back more great memories from your time together
Father working with Son... Priceless.
Recently found your channel thru Perkins Bros. I love the content. This is the first series I'm watching, I started at the beginning. It's nice to see y'all bonding over working. He's a good kid.
Y'all are cracking me up, great video today.
Reminds me of me and my dad when I was Cole's age :)
Where did Cole go after lunch lol,j/k nice to see a younger generation having interest ,keep teaching him we need him in the trades great job
Nothing beats the look of standing seam!
Kyle and Cole….great team. He will soon be a billy goat…keep him up there.
Good job family.
What a great video and knowledge for cole and time with dad he'll never forget.... hopefully he will tell his son about the time he was putting the roof on rr hq 2.0 with his dad....
Good sense in locking in panel to layout at top with set screw before pushing standing seam together
Great video guys , awsome build 🎉
Great job as always guys. So surprised Cole didn’t call you Greg 😂👍👍🏴🏴
Lo mejor de estos videos es la forma que enseña a su hijo ❤ que gran padre que bien se a de sentir tener un padre así 😃
Good to see your boy giving you some back, Greg could learn a thing or two from him.
You and your son is the best!!
This is what dads are for, they should show all their kids the skill they have accumulated.
He is a good boy. You can be very proud. He has open ears and eys..
The cedar breather is great stuff used it on my garage three years ago when I put my cedar roof on wished I would’ve had a 27 years ago when I did the house I had to fur every course with a one by inch and a half a lot of extra work will be changing the roof on the house next year definitely going to use cedar breather again
Awesome father son day! And to see his sarcasm level maturing right in front of you! 😂
Beautiful bantor between Cole(Kole) and Kyle!
Nice to see Father and Son working together
Fabulous Job Cole !!!!!!!!
Looks great fellas
Thank you Kyle for all the sweet tips and tricks
Good job Cole!
Your Videos always from great Interesting. Then You Work always with the Innovation Working Material.! Thanks
😂😂😂😂 that roof slap "good quality" by Cole. Love the father son videos, keep em coming.
Awesome job!
Now that I've watched this...I can't trust anyone to build my roof. I'm gonna want it done just like what you did with the WeatherLogic and VaporDry SA.

Love the detailed explanation of everything ! Thank you !I really hope RUclips gives you the possibility to do this for fun

BEAUTIFUL JOB GUYS‼️ YOUR SON LEARNS FAST‼️ Vinny 🇺🇸
Awesome watch!
Cheers from Nova Scotia!
I always snap the standing seem in before putting any screws in
Great stuff Kyle. The most noticeable thing in this video was how loosely your shoes were tied lol!
Love it love the channel man keep it up. I love have building done with you I hope
I can't wait to see this thing finished.
Roof looks sharp!
Great detail - great build.
I like running diagonal furring strips and silicone the high side.of them. It's less tedious than the roll out stuff.
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
Cole did good. Great parenting dude.
Nice to see you hemming the edge, my preference is a Z channel on top of the roof with a closed hem. Grab a rubber mallet. :)
I despise extra modes on tools,like modes on impact drivers.
However they are useful for the newbies.
One extra benefit of cedar breather,should help avoid oil can in the panel field.
I remember someone on IG using two 1/4 backer rods per snap lock panel.
Very few jobs are rocket science, but there is a science to every task.
Thanks Kyle & Cole. 😁👍🏼
Cole -"maybe he does know what he's talking about" 😂❤
LOve your work, love the videos. My only two suggestions is, why dont you have him use a rubber mallet to set the panel? Thats what i did with my standing, snap lock roof and it worked well. Second, i used a screw gun with my clutch set to the correct torque to set my screws every time. That also worked well.
Does the Cedar breather help prevent oil canning on flat, non raised panels?
Good morning happy Saturday 👍😎👍👌✌️🙏🙏🙏👍
I did a snap lock job because of your vids in the summer and I never laid out shit 😂😂😂but I did eyeball the rows straight
If it looks straight it is straight 😂
Great job!
Give that poor kid a rubber mallet lol his hand/fist is going to be swollen, black and blue after pounding all those panels on... Great work though!! I check square different but there's more than one way to do things and it's good to see you are teaching to leave the tab on. It's very true no one does that anymore.
Considering Greg and Cole are learning this at an earlier age the you will definitely set them up for the future .
Young Cole is a lefty.😂. I love the snap system.
Grand respect a vous et vous êtes très courageux bravo👏👍🙏🤩
Great visions!
With the metal not being in direct contact with the wood ply, is there any extra concern about hail damage? Would you go with a thicker gauge?
Looking forward to the next instalment..! 😎
Really nice roof panels no exposed screws gives it a much cleaner look and less likely to have any leaks or screws loosening up .
I’m very interested to see what Your Ridge Cap
is gonna be like. I’m curious if it is also gonna be a pop into or slide into groove channel system or the traditional metal roof Ridge Cap. ?
Cole the roof star!⭐️
You should get a little step stool for climbing up out of the lift onto the roof, it will save on your muscles.
Hi Kyle, Great vid as always. I know you'll think I'm nagging again but you've got to lead by example, especially when it comes to Cole. He's digesting your disregard for a fall-restraint system.
