Second generation roofer coming to the end of my days. Thank you 😊

Beautiful work, gentlemen. I am a builder and use copper roofs and lead flashings wherever I can or am able to convince an American customer that one should build for the next generation, not for the next decade as so many do. My family were builders in Czech and Slovakia, 100 years ago, and perhaps it is in my blood. My grandfathers from Slovakia caused a church to be built in Kenosha, Wisconsin in the 1920's. Here there was a very tall steeple or bell tower and as a 16 year old, my uncle, the tinsmith, Jim Benko was hired in the 1970's to replace the copper work there. I had the privilege to work on this repair work in zinc, lead and copper. Now, alas, the church is closed and the congregation gone to the cemetery's. Now they worship in aluminum and steel box buildings designed for raising cattle, not in a 1000 year stone structure standing as a testament to ones faith and skills. I am afraid that one day soon the church and all of the fine work of the dedicated craftsman will be pulled down and the land paved over for use as a gas station. So much of the building trades in America are now embracing shoddy and temporary materials, with workers that have no proper training. The land of "Mobile Homes" overtakes us. Too few have an eye or patience for quality work

Please teach the children! This is a skill I would pay to learn!

Man I love this video I do copper double fold and flat lock all the time iron saulder and lace saulder everything I have respect for other roof artists like me cheers keep up the good work!

We do this work in the USA and abroad, and it's cleaner than the work in the video. No disrespect to Germany, Austria and France: we learned from them. Good video

The dark brown color of the first patina is beautiful.

Incredible. Copper roofs are the best

Knee joints out, then, the all the hammered folds might corrode over the decades as they got thinned. Very Expensive Old method. Hot Roof as well.

Awesome trade! I’d love to have a go at that. I’d also love to get my hands on their scrap pile!

Amazing craftsmanship. I wish this skill and attention to detail existed here in the U.S. Also would be great if copper materials weren't so expensive.

Hard work and skilled men great to see them in action so good they make it look easy it's not! A beautiful very durable material improving with age!

銅板の曲線の屋根。屋根の上に上屋が付いてて良い仕事出来ますね！。専門職の真骨頂！。

Freaking good craftsmanship! These guys know what they're doing. this clip should be shown to building professionals in USA who don't know a birds p00 about this craft. Thats why metal roofs there are actually bitumen roofs, perforated by thousands of screws, which hold the metal camouflage down.

Excellent workmanship.

Dekarze robią pod dachem , no i te miedziane gwoździe . Na bogato 👍

Beautiful work.

Great video - thank you!

Nice movie, Total oldschool metalwork 👍 Greatings from metalManiak 😊

Awesome roofs!

Wow amazing craft

good work!👌

thanks for your informations

Maestros ! .Exelente trabajo tambien trabajo esta tecnica y me gustaria trabajar con ustedes

That's some good craftsmanship but there are hydraulic rollers that can minimize fatigue.

Bloody enjoyed watching that 👌

Alternative roofing..... Quite involved...

l am a Spengler from Switzerland🇨🇭 its nice to see and good work, but this is how we worked 30 years ago over here. now you have coils and Schleebach rollformersß Zinc and Copper, you can not work the same way. All those seamed up ridge detail would tear, doing it with zinc. Zinc you work with Flashings, Covers and Cap detail, that allow for expension.

Хорошая работа.

Nothing is said about those long straps that are put down between the sheathing boards. I assume they get affixed to something inside the attic space. Is it to framing or to the underside of the sheathing? I can't imagine it works out that there is always a rafter nearby.

i like thank u

Why are the rolls made of short pieces folded together, instead of long unbroken rolls? Is it to help the sheets deal with expansion?

Отлично!

У нас в России, мне за такую работу руки бы оторвали! а у вас ценится!

What is umber putty? And where do you get it?

Soo good. Copper or zing which one is durable or good?

Nice work.

Pretty amazing they are still doing everything by hand in this danish roofing company. With a couple of machines you would save ALOT of time and effort but with the exact same result.

Great video... Craftsmanship... Quality with Passion. I am doing the same way 🤓

Is this copper roofing recommended for common residential roofs, instead of ceramic tiles? I wonder cause 1) the wooden planks beneath the roofing are not so tightly placed, 2) This along with the roofing material should make the heat insulation value worse, 3) as well as the noise-insulation...can one put insulation beneath it? 4) what happens with storms and lightnings since this is a metal roof?

Proof that good old craftsmanship & give a shit still exhist in this world !!!!!!!!!!!! Thecopperguy

How does copper roofing fare in high temperature environments (like here in Australia)? And how does it hold up during hailstorms?

Тяжёлая работа,но финал радует.

Sorry for the ignorance but would it not be better to put something between the copper and the wood for more insulation or protection, like a layer of foam or something? Would the copper directly touching the wood not mean more likely for it to rot or suffer damage?

Eh koliko sam pokrio limenih krovova na ovj način , kuca, hala, crkava i drugih krovova, eto tako de nekad radilo i to su bili dobri krovovi, a sad imamo ove profilisane limove pa je mnogo lakše i brže raditi.

What exactly is "umber putty?" I don't see any other videos where this is being used.

that project must be historical because they're on the market double lock panels would be same quality just less work but definitely nice work

0:17 english 1 5:05 english 2 tacking 8:20 english 3 (zinc roof)

I wonder that the technical terms and the words for tools are the same as in German. Nice work btw

How about some pink rosin paper for a moisture barrier? Remember condensation!

double locked ridge @6:11

First get a wheel barrow full of money, good thing they last 100 years .

Hard Yakka

Would use an underpayment.

Lead >> everything else

why do you work so hard? when now we have tehnology to do the same work beather and faster ?

Mega Dollars.

sore knees.................

Zgodnie ze sztuką blacharską, ale sprzed 100 lat, dlatego stary dach zerwał wiatr, a oni robią nowy w ten sam sposób, teraz nie używa się haftr miedzianych, tylko ze stali nierdzewnej V2, są bardziej stabilne i mocniejsze i mocuje się je za pomocą gwożdzi karbowanych nierdzewnych, a nie miedzianych. Blachy pobite z wgnieceniami i upaplane z kleju strasznie niechlujna praca, jeszcze dają to na KZfaq

Pewds was fight damn

Przemek, pokarz swoje dzieła, byśmy nie pomyśleli że paplasz jak zazdrosna dziewczynka. Gwoździe i hafty miedziane są używane w europie przez ponad 600 lat z dobrym skutkiem. Potrzeba na gwoździe karbowane i hafty z nierdzewki powstały, kiedy cwaniaczki zaczeły używać laminatówzamiast zdrowych dech calowych pod blachę, oraz zbyt cienkiej miedzi na hafty.

Minecraft brought me here

It will not be on that roof if the gypsys gets it ha ha😁😁👍🙏
