Flat Roof Professional torching modified bitumen

[kevinscheid]

i would not recommend this as a proper technique. nor would any manufacture of the product. perhaps some real lessons from the manufacture would be a good idea. i have been installing torch since it was first introduced in this country

[andrewflett]

Michael Jackson would approve.

[leonsaudi]

trette doch noch mehr masse raus dan hättest das gleich giessen können. oh mann das schöne handwerk

[wannalayya]

I cannot critise this man because I have done stuff similar to this

[coreyisaacs1]

just another twit with a torch lmao

[MrRedderneck]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­haha a pro fuk no ......

[chizzle098]

Gotta love amateurs..... dont even know where to begin to start ripping this guy apart rofl. He pushes it in with his foot, instead of going to get his trowel, oh wait, its in his hand... why not use it then...n look at all those foot prints ahhahahahah

[scrappy750]

Im going to do a flat roof for my first time. Is this a good video to watch? I could do the moon walk when i was 10 but not sure if i can still do it. Will this effect my ability to complete the job?

[joevillajoe01]

wat a plonker!!!!!!!!!



[bestproroofing]

he is very unsafe, he is torching next to the propane tank and against the hose he needs to learn safety for me he is not professional.

[0790rob]

wot a fuckin mess you cunt give up you looser cowboy cunt

[kirkbrady79]

Pro wtf?

[romeonikegolf70]

instead of you re foot ,use you re trowel to bleed the edge and aplenty pressure ..wt a dance...lo

[alamakers]

hahaha cant stop laughing at this, sorry,

[ramzis84]

Completely unable to work, is the best roofer in Lithuania

[rabetone]

one glove? that's real professional...foot as an embedding tool? again real professional...also the trigger on a torch is pressure sensitive...no need to blast the heat on the material especially if you're wearing short sleeves...seems a professional should know these basic things.

[SirWally1460]

WTF is that???? OMG!!!!

[gregs918]

whats he fucking tap dancing he makes a better dancer than roofer that for sure

[dunncontracting]

You are not doing to bad. I own a roofing and residential construction company in St. Petersburg, Fl. called Dunn Contracting. When you are using a torch watch the color of the flame, that will tell you the temp. of the bitinum. Remember to cut a 45 on the end corner 4"by4", it is code. When applying modified over metal remember to keep the heat off the metal and on the rubber. When applying to metal up against a wall, 2100 the flashing, heat modified and drop it to the 2100. Dunn Contracting.

[corporate156]

LOL



[n8mus]

no hes right your a right fuckin bodger

[fregeau]

The roof seems perfectly flat so would it not be a safer way to do this welding by making sure all the existing granules are well embedded into the existing membrane BEFORE the welding part? I have seen so many leaks caused by a lack of perfect adhesion.

[NITROPERSON]

my god look at the hoof prints hes leaving they should of gave him horse shoes then you would know hewas a real cowboy crap job im glad its not my roof

[kennysandra1]

I love to see a tradesman at work, obviously this guy has done a few roofs in his time, I picked up some useful tips as I am about to repair my roof. many thanks to the roofer. Forget the negative comments you cant please everyone.

[haillard]

professional i have never seen a worse job in my life he is doing everything wrong shouldne be on the cap sheet and he should be using a trowel and let a loan the cap sheet is laid out wrong this guy does not know what hes doing

[hardhick]

1crazysir, it is a patch job. Why in the world would he stagger his end laps? If he were to stagger his end laps, then what would he do about his next endlaps? and the next? oh, that's right...ITS a patch job! I think it is a good lookin job. I used to seal my laps like dude in video, but now I use a seam roller. Much easier and more control.

[Joeyt66]

What if their was a fire ? No extinguisher !! no fall arrest!! What if while doing the moon walk you hit the tank and down it went

[wesheb]

fkn cowboys!!! bitumen trowel haha it would have went down faster with hot bitchy....

[bonycurtis1]

cowboys

[NansulateSystems]

Hmm lets see - how many roofs and lives have been lost running around on roof with flamethrowers?....

How many roofers have emphysema from the fumes emitted from these torches and the bitumen?

Fucking 2010 and people still do roofing like the dark ages,,,,

ASTEC waterproofing, no flame, no voc, no toxic chemicals no, no fire...

DOesn't leak either and saves over 20% on energy costs, why anyone would want to risk a lawsuit or burning your building down is beyond me....

[sizedoctor]

i do not know why there is so much critisism about this video, allthou this job is not perfect is just a patch job to fix ponding and leak issues and save money. i have seen really bad jobs, this is better than just putting a patching compound.

[1crazysir]

That's 1 of the ugliest torch jobs I've seen, Way too much bleed out-not embedding the granuals-not staggering the end laps, your actual torching methods are absurd, you sir a half assed roofer

[torisaliar]

I would trowel that seam with a heated trowel

[moi12332]

the new michael jackson lol...

[rukadoo]

What the fuck is this!!!! I have to agree with fatty here, these guys have absolutely no training on how to do a proper roof repair, so that it doesnt look like it was repaired at all. Rooks

[FATTYTHELEGEND1]

this is what happens when people pay peanuts, they get monkeys. some people should really stay off the roof but i love people like this because they keep me busy as hell.

[TheBobroofer]

THE ROOFING MOONWALK WHAT A JOKE

[kopynd]

If you guys think this is the worst roofing job you have seen, than yer not roofers, yer only as good as yer last job, and it's not the certificate that doe's the job. it's the person.

[ConspiracyCentral]

@kopynd

does

[kopynd]

You need a dragon wagon to do the job and 2 men with a torch each, 1 man doe's left side and the other doe's the right, try it that way, and you will not get pissed off.

[johnjerrard]

i have been roofing for only 15 years, but this is very poor workmanship, hope they have improved since they posted this on youtube.

[brentgiliustoni]

At least if you're going to torch in a roof, use a fucking cane instead of your fucking foot

[dcc1982]

is this guy for real.....if he was on my roof i'd toss him off...lol...what a joke...go hom

[plainolewhitey]

I've been looking for footage, making a spoof roofing video on what not to do for training. Sooo glad I came across this gem! That moonwalk will definately be repeated and flipped on the chorus. You're gonna be a star, baby!

[zepreto100]

what a horrible job junior

[ibcannonball]

also adding some granules isnt overkill its fuckin six bucks a bag! its being too cheap or lazy.... its details that make a difference!

[ibcannonball]

yeah I agree that this is not good at all. hes giving that seam three years worth of wear shuffling around on it like that when its hot. I do 20 yr specs in commercial and industrial appilications all the time and this guy would be told to pack his shit and head home. this is hardcore hillybillying at its finest.

[gez1967gall]

lmfao good man all ££££££££££££  who cares hahahahaha

[ivekem]

this is one of the worst roofs i have ever seen you I dont know how you are still in business ill show some pics of what decent roof looks like go on to ivekem

[BeatMonkeyOne]

Wow, love how you moon walk over the edge when it is all hot and gooey

[tiskidz]

This is bad, give the man a seminar so he can learn how it works.

[stviebee]

omg wat are u doin,, get of that roof has the customer seen this video..

[coolflatroof]

really... that is how you seal seams? horrible :)

Have that job inspected by mfg ... lol

[1badmuthafutha]

I have to agree with itzxallxgood ,,, way too much heat,,, not a bad job exactly,but not a professional one either in my opinion,,, alot of marks and heat wrinkles that don't have to be there,,, at least it looks that way from the vid,,,

[ItzxAllxGood]

Professional torching my ass this is a mess its people like upu that give roofers a bad rap

[rbryant123]

I'm always eager to learn from a professional tradesman so I would love for you to enlighten me with your constructive criticism. Explaining your opinion will allow everyone to decide if your comment is appropriate and just, or if it is simply a cheap shot for your entertainment.
