Thank you for talking fast and getting right to the point - 1, 000 times thank you.

Thanks brother, at last, I found a video with a simple explanation about the roof pitch. It is so easy how you explained it. For every 12 inches that run, it is 6 inches that rise. Thanks again

Great job on the video. You demonstrated several reminder tips in a brief, to-the-point method. Very helpful for folks like me that haven't roofed in a while.
Stay safe, best wishes. Get home in one piece. 🤔

Simple video, yet I learned something I can use the rest of my life, roofing the Pacific Northwest

Thank you for all the ways to measure the roof pitch. I am glad I searched before doing it.

Thanks for the "App" tip, but I prefer the S-Square now that you taught me how to use it!

Wow. Made it so simple. To understand it just brilliant

Great tips...True, True. everyone have a smart phone.

[scooterscarborough]

Yep. I use pitchguage. I like that to use....no levels, speed squares, or tapes...

[AWSmith]

I'm lookin at your ladder rung like its a pitch gauge as well.

Thanks this is the best video I ever found bro thanks 🙏

I thought it was illegal to climb onto a roof without owning a speed square 😂

You can also run two tape measures north and south east and west to get your slope. Your welcome

Hi, just wondering 8 foot pitch roof extension.. what's the lest size rafter I could use? The roof will be tiled and the pitch is about 12.5 degrees. Can't pitch any more due to a bedroom window above. Any tips

Level line on bargeboard. Measure 12" horizontal from edge.Vertical line from 12" mark down to edge.
Divide this figure by 12.
This will be 0. Something.
On calculator use tan-1 then the something number.This will be the degrees.
