The title of this video is how to do a brittleness test. I was watching and you explain how the insurance companies do it improperly but you never showed how to properly do the test and how to tell if it passes or fails the test.

Seems that this "test" is temperature dependent.

Please remember that insurance covers peril related COLS . Not wear and tear or deterioration. I work for Statefarm and some of the insured roof are from wear and tear and comes from them not replacing or taking care of their roof over a period of time. We don’t cover anything that’s not in the policy

Nice gloves. I buy the same ones best bang for your buck in my opinion

Just call state farm. They will come out and take a look and give you a professional opinion that matters.

I’ve got 50 on a roof and farmers just wants to pay for them to repair it. It’s a nonrepairable

Drone, caulk, and bristle test....

That is absolutely not how you do this. Please take this video down as what you just created a vandalism claim. I am licensed adjuster in 8 different states and you just broke the law on a homeowners roof. No body should ever take this person's advice

Looks like he used his fist to puncture a hole in the shingle. He could do this to many other shingles, without your knowledge, and your roof is totaled. Careful who you allow on your roof.
