    I’ve just completed putting a new metal roof on my shed. Without your videos, I would never have been able to do it. Your excellent and clear advice is truly exemplary. Each video provided the step-by-step information that I needed to complete the job. At 72 years old, I still love learning new things and my shed needed a new roof! I can’t thank you enough for your time and effort to put this series together.

    Thank you sir, I have used your videos several times in the last few weeks while prepping my sister's gambrel style garage that my dad and I built 50 years ago. Do you have any videos that are gambrel specific? I'm trying to wrap my brain around the facia trim piece where it intersects both above and below the hip cap. It sure seems like I have watched at least 100 videos about metal roofing in recent weeks and although I have seen a few involving gambrel roofs, none have actually covered this. I will say however, that your videos have helped me immensely. Thanks again. - Keith

    Greetings.. Could you explain how to join shingles on a four way intersection connected at the same elevation.. one ridge is 12 12 the other is 6 12.. I put new dormers in a 12 12 roof, the dormers are 6 12 but the new ridges come together at the same elevation.. Thanks so much for your help!!

    I've been wondering how to keep the edge of the ridge cap from digging into the roof panels as you screw it down. I see you have your ridge cap folded on the edges.

    I love your videos, I've learned a lot, but I get about 3 rainstorms a year blowing in from the west that open my shower vent and drip into my bathroom. This won't stop it. Hopefully we'll get rid of Trudeau and I will change my photo.

    How would you install a ridge cap on a ridge that has a pitch change within the ridge?

    Where is seal between roof ridge? Wind can easily push water under the ridge.

      I can understand why you would ask that but in my experience, if the ridge cap overlaps the panels by 4-5" it has not been a problem. If you are concerned about wind driven rain, they make both a vented and non-vented closure that you can install under the ridge vent.

    Hi. I enjoyed the video. I would like your opinion for installing ridge cap where the lip of the ridge cap isn't inline with the perlins. I have built a shed but perlins are 40 mm away from either side of ridge cap lips. What would you do in regards to where you fix the screws

    • @RoofingIntelligence
      @RoofingIntelligence  Год назад

      You can just run the screws into the metal and they will hold pretty good. I've had issues where the screws that were just metal to metal backed out so I always try to get the screws into wood.

      There is closure strips that get installed first, they make both vented and normal not vented closures.
