As if so many ppl are fuckin sensitive these days getting hurt over words that don't mean anything they make a big deal over it. Fuck what they think just keep being you my friend who's not a racist lol

hahah thanks man. lots of sissies. but I get it. there's tension and real problems with racism that they deal with often. I expect someone to speak up if they felt insulted. just my dumbass don't know how to complete a sentence lmao

You didn’t come off as racist so all it took was 1 second of thought and I understood.

Im Mexican and easily understood what you were trying to say man 👍

I'm Mexican American and I can appreciate you taking the time to clear things up, but it was not necessary. It was clear to most people if not all. You do great work and is obvious you know what you are doing.💪👍

You held the same beer all day?

Hell yes! Salud!

That's the right way to do it :)

so you aprove of him wearing shorts no fall arestor.... spitting down the side of the building his partner smoking pot or something... hmm

That made me laugh

Lol

dam right! anyone can do roofing you just proved it.

Yessir thanks!

@@NWIVeteranConstruction nice way to only reply to compliments

@@hikdingle2210 yea tf right! Lol read on brother. I rip the dumbasses too. All them mf's that think they know something "nail on the tar line" n shit they all can get it bub

Hik Dingle Are there you tube rules that mandate you reply to negative comments?

Lol I've roofed a few family members houses here and there. I hated every minute of it mainly because it was hot as hell and I hate heights and my parents house is 3 stories tall. I know how to roof I'm not the fastest but this guy taught me a few tricks so I'm glad I watched it.

I've done roofing but I too can't explain why I watched this video either lol but I've got mad respect for a blue collar worker getting it done! raising a beer to you brother!

Brandon Bogan and I found myself enjoying every bit of it

@Roald Shakleton no, 60+30=90

If you're still alive in 30 years that would be amazing.

Ok, I think you guys are missing the fucking point. It seems I have to explain....The lesson kids is not wether I'll be around in 30 years, but to try and take care not to kill yourself while your young, I'm paying a huge price for "timing" my work when I was young and strong, in construction and in the military. See class, when you beat the living shit out of your body for 40+ years, you will pay the price and all for chasing that almighty dollar bill. I hope today's lesson is a little more clearer. And for you smartass pricks pointing out the obvious of 30 years equalling 90 that's great you can add! Call me in 30 years, is considered a descriptive future occurrence. In others words a matter of speech, it's not literal. Understand now boys and girls? Stop killing yourself, take time to work smart not hard. You'll wish you had, got it? But, what do I know, nothing. Do as you please. I know I wish I had listened to the old timers back in the day! I was cocky and thought I knew everything. I still don't know shit. I do know one thing, my broken up, arthritis and cancer ridden body hurts like a bitch every damn day now. I'll give you one guess why! But go ahead act like the badasses that you think you are and have fun with that. And you can still call me in 30 years!

@@robertcaudill2544 decompression exercises. They do wonders while a worker as well as retired.

I started roofing at 13 too 37 now and i feel 57 started off toting shingles up a ladder for roofers and worked first 8 years nailing with a hammer it takes a toll on ur body fact

Your not looking in the right pllaces

You said it brother! In my 20s as well. Screw those 11/12 pitches !

Sam G yea I herd that 59:02 💨😂🤣

It was boycub

I thought he was farting the whole time

I think I heard a couple of them.

Lmao Same here

iseewhatyoudidthere watched this and i own a tin roof 😅

Me neither..

Ya same here I've got concrete shingles but this reminded me of the old days when I worked for a contractor watched whole vid too :)

My roof is metal . thank God

that's when you know you made a good video! lmao! one time I watched a guy fillet an alligator for 28 minutes...I do not recommend it.

Send link to alligator fillet video XD

oh yes. my biggest pet pieve

I won't dare wear a polo/ golf shirt partly for this reason.

the cameraman smoked like 3 packs of cigs. due is a chimney

@@marine2tough he was smoking green cigs haha

camera guy is stoned ......... lol not paying attention

I've had my moments like that on bitch duty jobs

Kyle Koverola stagnant

My father was a roofer for over 45 years. I have four brothers and we all know the trade. You nailed it, it's his prep that makes him as good as he is. Don't forget, this is him goofing around on a weekend...

yep fast, butt the waste stub will wear deeper faster and the cuts allow water seepage too. Ok n for a flat garage.. probably can't see our from the road and if you didn't know why the overlap is important it wouldn't matter. In any case, wish I had my back back... 😏 be careful dude and best wishes to you

a roofer teach you something? oh thats funny kid...... you might as well ask an ugly girl to be pretty. that's not possible.

Terracotta doesn't do well in the winter. Freezing weather causes terracotta and cement tiles to crack and break that is why you only see shingle and metal roofs in the northern parts of the states.

@@thinkingcashew6 Slate, Wood shake. Slate is good for 150 yrs.

john ryan wood will rot from moisture after 10 years or so, at least that’s what happened with my old house. And slate is more expensive than asphalt shingles

@@RaceboyYT Wood roofing lasts 35-40 yrs when installed correctly. It needs to be installed on slats so that the cedar can breathe underneath. There is a product called cedar breather that is used when you install on solid decking, If you don't install in either of these 2 methods then yes it will rot quickly. Someone who knows how to roof would never install wood shingles directly onto the decking. And yes, slate is very expensive. But stone or slate is absolutely the best roofing material. Easily lasting 150 yrs. Easy to repair, if you're a roofer. You get what you pay for in roofing material.

@@thinkingcashew6 they use slates and tiles in Denmark and they have no problems, these shingles will cost you more in the long run and to be honestly look tacky

Ahhhhahaha man this is my favorite story from any comment ever on my channel. Amazing how the world's changed so much. Definitely will be nailing my son's to the roof one day! And best of luck with your reroofs

You should pin it to the top, it was my favorite also. @@NWIVeteranConstruction

thanks ! be sure to hit that sub button for me then! I'd appreciate it!

Nothing would get done if everybody followed bullshit OSHA rules, bunch of pencil pushing doofus’s that have never picked up a fucking tool in their life!

@oShane Kasper that is a correct statement but as a power plant worker I believe it was designed to save lives and reduce injuries for the industrial craft workers of America. This may not be applicable to the independent contractor but important nonetheless .

Genie Harris yeah... just wait when they pass by or someone snitches and then ends up with a huge fine by the end of the day.safety comes first in my company. It’s money out of my pocket

@@pauljaco4746 all you had to say was doggone, and everyone would know you're white.

i was just got a say that... i had roofing company in south texas working with all my buddies mexicans.. one thing i learned pay them well they will performed well...we madevlots of money during the hell storms

The average Mexican woman

thanks bud!

Alex Kate Likhonin well he is white and his work is fast but correctly done so taking everything into perspective I’d hire him

@@TheTinkle1 lol

i have a friend with a roofing company and they wont use a gun and are faster with hammers than that gun you should see these guys go !!!!!!

Most roofers and carpenters( such as myself) have literally a magnet wand(magnet on a stick) they will pass over the ground collecting all metal objects including nails.

S Will Denn unfortunately we don’t have roofers like you in many parts or even put that extra dedication and just leave there trash everywhere

the actual seal down strip is on the bottom back of the shingle.. where he is nailing, nails another row across the top of the previous shingle laid.. putting 10 nails per shingle instead of 5...

He is nailing on the nail line. GAF HD shingle nail line is just above the sawtooth and below the seal strip

I’m w the goat. I don’t feel bad putting 4 nails because it’s really 8 nails a shingle.

you need to learn your shit boi, its a HD shingle.

@@troyzupancich9550 if those are the new GAF HDZ the nail line is the tar line

what roofer doesn't.

@@jimmyjackz best way for the body aches.

@@gasser5001 lol I've did about 10-15 roofs in my life helping a buddy of mine and I've never seen a roof get torn off or put back on without greenery.

@@jimmyjackz gotta pass the the drug test! As in you bring your drugs we wanna test em!

Never tried mad herb, I dabble with the happy though

Lol...all I was thinking about was my sore back

Roofing hasn't been done like this where I live for about 40 years. No one uses nails anymore.

@@Pow3llMorgan staples then?

@@JustinKork It's welded down, or we use tiles.

Then do me a solid and Hit that sub button my man!

How do you keep your reveille straight all the way through? What's your guide?

@@armandoguajardo3584 that little ridge on the shingles. I just make sure to snap a line and start off straight if the side is big enough and install as normal.

you da man

@@bkoz319 thank you

A Fellow roofer , you do great work ,also can relate to some of your tricks of the trade ..

Foe???

Tell us about your back when your 40! lol. But, you are a badass worker.

Yeah, I was fast but our fastest guy made the nail gun sound like 1 shot , it was sick! I could get it down to 2 shots first 3 sounded like 1 but I always had a pause at the 4th. The nail gun makes all the difference, we ran Hitachi and a clone, the clone was really fast and light. Bostitch nailers are too slow and so is running that pattern clear across. we only did this when it was to hot to move a shingle by the time you got to the next row.

I meen 33 minutes for 1 side is fast. At that rate itd take about 2.5 hours for the entire roof. Meaning you a 3 man crew could do 3 roof jobs I. 1 day. A new roof is insanely exspensive.

@@jtaylor3609 it all depends on the roof. this was a pretty straight forward job. no skylights or other protrusions, no valleys, walkable 4 pitch. it shouldn't take any roofer worth his weight more than 2 hours to do it. I have owned my own roofing and siding business for over 30 years on Cape Cod. in my prime I layed 12-14 square a day.

@@lllBAMlll I agree Hitachi always seemed to be faster than the Bostich. it was also weighted and balanced a lot better. I do things a lil different. for 1 I don't like the hose on the roof I am working on. always used a lead hose then 1/4 from that to my gun and behind me. never had to worry about stepping on it and rolling my ankle. also I am a lil suspect of his nailing pattern. all you need is 1 seam to be where a nail is. all in all good job tho

I roofed houses for 25yrs. He's not fast he's very SLOW lmao. There's alot of pointers I could show him alot of tricks that would make him extra money. Plus he want have to cut the starter shingle like that. Take a normal 3tab shingle turn it upside down the you don't have cut your starter shingle. Then running up the sides hang over and inch turn your 3tabs inside house then you got 1 contentious line running up to the ridge cap

They do. Check it out sometime its pretty intense!

@@luisruelas6899 really? What's it called?

@@imtypingwords check out the IDEAL national championships for electricians. I've seen some for bricklayers and masonry and im sure there's some for those other trades you mentioned. KZfaq is a gift from above lol

Masonry has a competition. Winner gets thousands in tools to help their business or for themselves. Just about every trade has a competition. It's crazy because the judges measure with a level, string and ruler. It's all built to code and with speed with 0 errors. True masters of their craft. The last comp I saw had a winner out of AZ.

They do, it's called The World Skills Olympics and it's held biennially.

You aren't the only one.

Ahhhaha yea it changed when I saw the content. Only fast forward 12 minutes or so

@@NWIVeteranConstruction Alright by me , I am impressed. But I wouldn't and couldn,t do that unless I had too, and I am too old now anyways.

I'm seeing that chiropractor now ! I decked and roofed homes/apartments around Tulsa for about 4 years and that's all I wanted. Car wreck didn't help which was after roofin.

yes in Europe we don't have the "shitty" type of american "shingles" roofing material . because we build for centuries ,, not for 10 year replacements :-)

No problem bud! Was gonna say sir but you know how that goes
