Helping my buddy tear a roof off soon and I’ve never done it before. Thank you. Super helpful video.

My roof is being torn off as I'm watching your video. The roofers are removing two roofs just like the one in the video, also.
My 1 year dog is barking at the unfamiliar noise. She's adjusting to the noise.
It's nice to watch your video rather than trying to visualize what is being done.
Thanks for posting this video. It was very helpful.

I’m about to attempt doing my own roof due to costs. Do you have a video with a checklist of all required tools as well as tips?

[StaileyGoodworth]

Thank u, doing this for my grandma tomorrow and I wanted to make sure I knew how to

In the mid 80’s...I did about 60 roofs.
Hard azzzz work!
Knowing what I do now.... I’d have NEVER worked that hard for soooo little.

That was the most legit explanation of a day in roofing

Dang ... For a second there, I thought there was a duck on that roof!!😂😂🎉
Hope that duck can fly cuz he ain't tied off!!!😂

The first time I see a boss who cares about his people and the first time I see a crew with a safety harness.

Me and my crew do roofing almost 3-4 days out the week because it’s some serious hard work especially in the heat you best believe you need neck gaiters long sleeves pants boots and plenty of water against the sun doing this job.

🥶 what about the Red Ripper shingle remover, is it a baddass tool

[rickl]

What do you do when you run across a roof with ice & water shield between the shingles and the plywood. (With no felt/paper or synthetic underlayment beyween the I&W and the shingles. Those shingles will be grown to the I&W and the I&W will be grown to the plywood. I've got some shingles I need to remove and replace on our roof and there is no getting them up.

[billmonroe]

Curious as to how they laid architectural over 3 tab if they had to do anything special to do the overlay?

[jeffdeluca]

Is it more difficult to remove stapled shingles? Do u have a video showing that process in action? Thx again

[imhungry]

I like to start from the bottom and pull up. You can get 10 to 12 shingles at one time

[jeffreystewart]

Why are you using a harness setup on a 4 or 5 12 pitch

[northernlights]

What about three tab over wooden shakes on slats?

[Olieman]

So everyone is wearing proper PPE and fall protection and you are just jumping around without any PPE. Great instruction!!!

[oldoldpilgrim]

Do you pull the nails or leave them in the roof.
