Brilliant job Del - don’t worry we don’t find anything you do boring, just film it all

Great tip about using the saw at half depth to stop wandering - that's one I'll be using in the future. Thanks Del

Thank you so much for a detailed how to do a warm roof. I’ve followed your method almost exactly, apart from an extension difference. Building control visited on Tuesday and passed it with flying colours. Now considering I’ve never done anything like this ever is quite a result. Really, a huge thank you to you. 😊

I feel frozen just watching you working. Great job Del, looking forward to part 2.

Cold start to the new year. We have had a cold start too. Hasn't got above 39C which is great so far. Like the switch furring idea. Worked well with a bit of thought. Did a lot of flat roof builds in UK. Never did a warm roof version. We just built them. Roofed them. Packed them full of insulation from underneath. But then all the fancy insulation boards were just coming out. Like they are here 25 years later. Never seen them on a job yet. Still very expensive. Limited competition. That is a nice size addition. Will be very useful when completed.

Genius work there with the firrings and fascia reduction 👏🏻 I love when a plan comes together I’ll be pinching that one thank you 👍🏻

awesome video, can't wait for the next one. I've wanted to tackle a project like this for a while and was always wondering about a few key details, thanks for filling in the gaps.

Excelent video and brilliant idea on the firrings. I spent the first 10min shouting "where's the wall plate?" Then you explained. Please keep the video's coming. I have watched every one and learn something new each time.

Happy new year and thanks as always for taking the time to explain what you're about to do and why. I learn something new from your video's e.g creating the fall and attaching the plate to the wall. Excellent work and look forward to part two.

Great work mate. Looking forward to part 2. 👍

Happy New Year. What a coincidence ! I am a flat roofing estimator/surveyor - have been for 40 years!

Good to see you back Dell , yep it was -6 to -7 last week, was on an old flat roof myself 🥶 😁👍🇮🇪☘️👏

Nice to see this done properly after getting ripped by a recommended roofer! I should have done the carpentry myself but was too busy elsewhere on site, I'm still amazed at the balls of some people to charge top whack and then cut every corner possible, ended up with jablite(polystyrene) instead of the PIR I'd budgeted for, massive price difference and performance. Aaargh!

Nice one 👍 I projected the osb+insulation+osb past the external wall face a while back and attached fascia to that, to reduce the thickness, some I've seen have fascia's over a foot thick, look well ugly.

Great to see you back and a happy new year Del, you did pick the wrong job for the weather were getting at the moment though. That's a great tip you used with the furring strip to get your fall. Look forward to part 2.👍👍

Excellent piece of work Del very clever how you plan out the job. Looking forward to the next video regards Mark

Point it at me Bill , camera on the on screen talent darling 😌🤣🤣, loved that but Del really made me chuckle. Having worked on one of these this time last year with the A &E boys we can appreciate the work that goes into it. Great job as always Del … roll on bloody spring 🥶😎🧱👍🏽

Great video like your firing detail method I’ll be giving that a go on the next flat roof I do .Keep them coming good to see you back .👍

Welcome back Del....great insight on how to install a warm roof...excellent content as usual.

Good to see you back del! Great work as usual bud 👌🏻

As all ways, Top Video. Stop working for greedy builders 💰, go building for yourself. Your a Top trade's Man

Great, I've been waiting to see this. Many thanks

Great work and video del. Looking forward to video 2. Love the detail in them.

Great video Del, as always some quality tips. Bet your glad you kept that hair on in this weather 🤣

Looking good del .setting up takes a bit of time but once done it soon gets done . Weather does not help 👍👍👍👍👍

Happy new year Del and nice to see you back, and watch how you go on that slippery scaffold 👍

Nice work Del, like the trick with the firings, you made extra and used the waste in one! I would certainly go back over the wall ledger with chem-fixed bar or rawl bolt. Those fisher fixing are very convenient but only rated for non-structural applications, I imagine they have poor shear resistance as a result.

Damn fine work Del.

Oh! there you are Del. I was wondering why I hadn't seen a Vid from you this year. I figured you'd nipped off with Mrs Tall to sunnier climes for a bit of power suntanning for a few weeks.

Nice trick with the firings Del. I didn’t think of that when I did mine last year? 🚴👍

Found the right video👍

Great video Del

Great job del 👍

great video also quality work

In Ireland we have to counter batten on top of joists for air flow..obviously you can do it under it..and also they prefer ply wood than osb to screw the insulation to.. then cover the insulation with another layer of osb if it's done in fibreglass

Happy New Year Del !! thanks for the video, hard filming in them conditions !!

Nice one Del, doing the same next week, we have encountered problems on the roof lights with the new insulation on the upstand fkin madness. I obviously noticed no wall plate I know it's probably not needed but easier with. Now the big question, Jiffy hangers, for years I always set my house plate on the ground and fixed my hangers before fixing the plate so the straps could be wrapped over and fixed from behind as they should be. After many years my Son convinced me no one does this anymore , still think I am right 😁👍

Great job Del 👍. A lot of work in a warm roof for us Chippy’s to do now lanterns are another thing to set out and work out. I’d generally do the same with the tails to reduce the fascia size nothing worse than a 350mm fascia. Not sure if you have a ppn but I use a bostitch strap shot I do like you nail everything in position then have a metal work hour end of the day can do about 60-70 full hangers in that time keep up the great content 👌

Thanks so much for your video! You really give a lot of details which is so helpful! Do you cover London by any chance?

Absolutely love the firing idea, can you see any issues with doing this on a parapet wall. Also why do we usually sit joists on a wooden plate and why hasn’t it been done on this job and what are the possible negatives of not having a plate. Thanks. Just looking to learn.

Feel like you missed a trick there, you could’ve cut some masonry hangers as that brick course was spot on with top of your wall plate

Great job del love your video keep doing them 👍😁🤌

Great to see this video. U will put the bargeboard against the brick, what wd u do if no part of the bargeboard and guttering can go beyond the brick. Can't use a parapet wall. Hope to hear from you..thx

And Happy New Year to you.👍

If only Stabila made track saws ! 😂

Another interesting great video DEL. PS you need a haircut 😉🤣🤣🤣👍👍

Nice work there Del, If i were fit and able i'd love to ave a couple of days bashin it about with you. I do miss working

Hi Del, Thanks for the video, very informative & some great workmanship. Has the structural engineer or Building Control ever had an issue with cutting the joists down to create firring? or do you oversize them for this purpose?

Hi mate, brilliant vid as always, whats the depth of that joist at its shallowest over the clear span length👍

12m wide house, that's massive!

What happened with the back wall in the end, did he build a parapet, also love the way how u done the joists firing detail to keep the facier as small a possible, is that pretty standard way to do it, as id like my roofer to do that when i extend next year, also it is usual to not have a top plate there. Sometime ive seem people bury the joist in the wall, is there any reason why u would do that, as ur way seems so much simpler, does it just depend what the local building regs are

Very nice work del, really tackled a problem i had were i bought higher timbers in the past and had a lot of waste left. Thanks! How would you go by this if you had your drainaige concentrated in one area? Eg having a downpour drain in the left corner?

Hi, No experience speaking so please bare with...Regarding the firrings cut from the joist, its a great idea. My extension is in the making and plans say i need 47 x 170 timber for the joists. When cutting the firring off the joist it reduces the height, do you use taller.. timber to ensure its still 170 after cutting? Sorry if its a silly question, I just want to get it right when I do mine. Many thanks Shaun

How you finding the new nail gun Del? Should consider a PPN Nailer with the amount of hangers you do. Nice job that pal 👍

What model number is that saw looks like a great bit of kit keep up the good vids 👌🏻

👍

I'm about to do this, but how to stop condensation getting up the edges and into the insulation ?

How's the that new Fischer nail gun going,does the gas freeze when it's cold like my paslode 🙄

🤣🤣 how spooky was that request

Looks like a tricky detail where the barge board , flat roof and parapet meet !

Is a block and beam roof a mad idea for a big shed/garage? For noise reasons.

Part 2 ASAP please..😁

Non builder here,so this is a question not a statement, do you not require a wall plate on the brick work end?

I literally never use Fischer hammer fixings- am I missing a trick here? I always worry that it’s hard to tell if it’s caught the masonry or not

👍👍👍..

Is there no cavity between the wall insulation and the outside bricks?

Do you hand nail all of your hangers and hardware on? Do you guys not typically use hanger/connector nailers?

What make is that yellow roofing square Del?

Proper Grafter

🤘😎🤘👍👍

Builder 2 days!!! Lol...

Get a haircut! 😀
