It is important to drive or install the screws correctly. This is a really simple procedure, but quite often it is done incorrectly. If you mess this up your roof will leak, so taking the time to correctly fasten the screws is exceptionally important. This video will be an excellent guide that will clearly demonstrate the correct way to tighten a screw.
The screws that you will be using will have a rubber washer with a metal cap. The rubber washer is just a bit smaller than the metal cap. You want to tighten the washer so that it spreads to the edge of the metal cap and not past the metal cap. When you tighten the screw it’s critical that you don’t drive it too far.
It’s a natural reaction to exert too much pressure and tighten the screw as much as possible. This will over compress the washer by expanding it too much and breaking the washer. If this happens back out the screw to relieve some of the pressure. If you over-tighten the screws then they might leak and will also need maintenance sooner.
Conversely, it is common to under-tighten the screw. The easiest way to determine if the screw is too loose is to see if you can spin the washer. If the washer spins, then the screw is too loose and should be retightened. You will develop a feel for fastening the metal panels correctly, but just pay close attention to ensure that the screws are installed correctly.
Screws Should Be Installed Straight And Not Sideways
Screws that are installed sideways or tilted will not permit the rubber washer to seal correctly. This will create a possible leak point. If you notice this has happened then back the screw out and redo so that the screw is straight.

There's nothing more annoying than having to hand-screw something together kzfaq.infoUgkx1McjgiqTNcTjrhvRvJWcrk5bzTeQW-Wn except for the pain in your wrist that is. This addition to my tool kit is great and I can get a lot done without all the pain and annoyance. The battery last's a long time and I have yet to run out of power when doing a small project (granted I am saying small project because I'm no construction worker). The only thing that I wish it had was an LED or pair of LEDs to indicate when it was charging and whether or not the charge was complete (or full).

Yes the “Bell” shaped washers protect the rubber gasket better from the sun, but the. downside is that these bell shaped metal washers must be seated exactly flat against the metal panel or else they will prevent the rubber gasket from getting the proper compression. Something to consider when you are going to install thousands of these in a big metal roof.

Willy. We appreciate the feedback and agree that pre-drilling sheets is a personal preference The main two reasons we would recommend are: 1. If you’re putting a 2” screw in the panel high it can be difficult and time consuming to attach the panels and keep the screw straight and not at an angle. The pilot hole helps a lot. 2. What’s faster? Stacking 10 plus sheets and snapping one chalk line for straight screw lines or snapping chalk lines after the fact? If the installer can keep the screw lines and screws straight and believes it’s quicker without pre-drilling than that’s better Otherwise pre-drilling will actually save you time and provide clean and straight screw lines

Putting fasteners in the low spots is a very bad idea. This is one of the few videos that correctly shows where to put the screws, in the high points or for a different style roofing, high and mid points. The low points is where the water is. Do not put the screws where the water is. Five years in all low point screws always leak Rather than just show the correct place to put the screws you should have said do not ever go low. Low is where you want a guaranteed roof screws so when the roof fails after the warranty, the roofing company has side jobs fixing leaks on the homeowners dime
@alexanderking9462
@alexanderking9462 3 ай бұрын
some roof manufacturers recommend the low oints for their specific roofing. I think leaks have more to do with the gaskets on the screw washers, old ones wear out and depending on how much pressure they are under they can wear out faster. For most metal roof applications you are correct that they should be placed at the high points though.

The main issue with a drill is that you are likely going to over-tighten the screws. This will damage the sealing washer and water will penetrate between the panel and fastener.

If you were to look in the installation guides of different manufacturer's you would see it shown both ways. Low = better attachment plus less chance of denting the high rib High = more weather-tight. The majority of installers think there is more value in a weather-tightness vs slightly better attachment. Also unless you have a 29 gauge denting the top of the panels is not really an issue as you would be over-tightening the screw if the panel dented. That would create a potential leak point as it damages the screw washer. We have explained it thoroughly in this video at one minute and 34 seconds kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbOUgtGpp9PZYHk.html

My view is these exposed screws with rubber will eventually leak as a direct result of movement of the entire structure even if they are correctly driven. Freezing and thawing can also cause the rubber to degrade. also if the fastener corrodes or rusts that also will effect the rubber. The standing shingle with structural form to prevent buckle from heat and cold has to be preferred.

We had a Colorbond (corrugated metal) roof on our house in Australia when I was growing up, never had any leakage issues. Love the sound of the rain on it. A massive hailstorm swept through the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney in 1999. Every house in the zone with roof tiles or slate was smashed to pieces causing huge water leaks in those homes. The ones with corrugated metal roofs were only dented and weren’t affected by water leakage. Our new house is 12 years old, we have a Colorbond roof on it. Best investment in my opinion

Music loud , unecessary and distracting. Imagine going to a job interview with rock music blaring on the radio! The biggest problem with KZfaq videos and the viewer is not given the option of listening to what is being said and turning off the music. Who knows; maybe someday!

An "Electric Screwdriver" generally refers to a tool shaped and held like a bulky manual screwdriver, and rather light duty. A "screw gun" generally refers to a tool shaped like an electric hand-drill with a chuck specifically made for the hex-shank of a screwgun bit. They are normally MUCH beefier than an electric screwdriver, and turn a lot faster. Most of them now use an impact-drive mechanism which makes a lot of noise but will drive a 3" deck screw into oak with no "kickback", and don't require lots of force to keep the driver bit from popping out of the screw and mangling it. They are truly amazing.

Why does everyone insist on using narrators that use this baby voice? It's so grating & unprofessional sounding.

I've been in the metal roofing industry for so long now, it's not funny. In Australia and New Zealand, we are years ahead of America, and just about every tip you gave on this is pretty bad. If anyone wants to learn how to install roll formed metal roofing or European style tray roofing, don't take any of this as gospel, as this is not the best way.

As an Australian, do you have any videos showing better techniques. BTW I live in Japan and most corrugated roofs are still fastened with cap nails... Spaced about what you would in somewhere like Sydney too, despite the typhoons! (And Japanese cedar battens too, which makes pine look like hardwood by comparison...)

Well, you don't give any other suggestions of how to do it, or where to find better information, so that comment isn't very useful. I WILL google " Installing corrugated metal roofing in Australia", though, and see what comes up...
