Thanks! That was very helpful. I paid for a flat roof years ago. Its leaking. After your video I can now see three things. 1) What they did. 2) What they did poorly 3) What I need to do. Perfect

Hello from Harrisburg. becoming a huge fan. found myself looking for flashing help with a roof vent and you came to the rescue. i almost used asphalt on my rubber roof. silicone and fleece is the way. THANK YOU. a DIYer who didnt know diddly.... but in need of roof redo so further videos encourage me to do myself. too easy and you and the wife make it fun. thanks for the easy transition of knowledge. FYI i have a quote of 16k to do rubber roof replacement. i have 2 flat roofs on my house. i about pooped my pants. he said rubber went up. i agreed but like my gosh. so anyhow, again thank you. if i knew where you were i'd drive just to shake your hand. your knowledge has saved me hundreds and soon thousands. love youtube. its the dad and mom that knows everything. thanks again doc and nurse!!

Thank you so much. For 20 years I was helping people fixing their roofs where as other contractors wanted to replace it. I never made the money that other roofing contractors was making due to the type of service I was providing. But, little did I know that my knowledge would came in handy in my later years. For the last 4 years we have been posting videos regularly and have helped many. Your comment is very heartwarming and encouraging. I wish more people would take the time to say something. Again thank you very much From Naas and Adelaida

I have a huge flat roof house that I bought in 2016. Roof last replaced in 1992. Since I bought the house I spread that rubber roof coating white stuff all over it to extend its life a bit longer since it was leaking till I could afford a replace. Learning a lot from you here so will be attempting a re roof project soon. Thank you 🙏

I have been helping people all my life. That is how I was brought up. This is just an extension of my life to help. What I show is what I have learned and practiced over the years. But the last 5 years is when I started putting out videos. I thank God for my 3 sons who, not knowingly, got me into a "GoPro" camera and other techniques and materials of roofing. I am an old-school guy. I had a $6000 video camera to drag around, which was a nuisance. I only did "Torch Down" flat roofs and never ventured into other materials. My one son started his own roofing business, and he investigated other materials and told me about it. So, I am trying to say that God Orchestrated everything so that at 66 years old, I could still help others. I really appreciate everyone's comments and support. Without you guys, this will be for nothing.

Pretty much what you just did in this video with the drip edge only with gravel-stop. Do you know where I could find some info? Have you ever addressed this in a video?

Hi, I would be tempted to nail the dripping edge directly on the plywood, then the base, then the cap sheet, so that in case of a leak the water goes on top of the drip-edge, not under (towards the edge of the plywood), No? Also, it would be nice to put a piece of cardboard, a tarp or whatever to avoid tar stains on the white roof, doesn't take much time and so much nicer. I have an other question, if you have a chance, I have a torched roof on my work shop, it's porous and leaks in places, could I use the cap-sheet directly on top of the old roof? Thank you.
@yaysontube

You're correct.. in theory at least. This is not the proper way to do this install. First step should be a 4-6" rubber flashing directly onto the plywood, then drip edge, then asphalt primer and THEN your base sheet

Metal flashing is of the past. There is still a place for it, but I have been using liquid flashing for the past 10 years with great success. Metal flashing has to be embedded into a cement wall, or covered with siding. Not so with liquid flashing. They have been using termination bars for EPDM roof on brick walls that was not to successful in many cases.

You make everything look easy! I need a little advice on something a little different from the video, I bought a place that has a shed with metal roof panels. upon inspection the roof panels are either overlapped 1 hump or not at all and I can see daylight where the edges didnt overlap veryy well. I wouldnt mind trying to save the panels, what would be a good way to remediate the overlapping issue?

That is so wrong. Another torch of flashing up the wall and down on the cap and your seams torched properly then not counter flashing like you said. Counter is for side walls. Wall flashing after the cap flashing but leave enough space for siding the wall also. Man oh man in winter and heavy snow and rain storms your method would last maybe 3 years
