Pic of the Day pt.2
« Back To Roofers TalkAfter

That was granule surface I&W on the cricket and on the valley. Bottom corner was a mish mash of i&w, caulk, and small pieces of copper.
Thats nice looking work. I have not seen a lot of that kinda thing on an economy comp roof here on the west coast. Where is that?
Dennis That is a nice clean professional application. Nice work nice lead work . Am I seeing an older shingle on the other slope ?
Neat work. What kind of valley metal did you tie in to? Is that a rolled gable?
Quite an improvement Dennis!
wywoody Nice call on the rolled gable comment . I scanned the pic looking for little anomalies or unique features . Missed that one/ B) :) ;) B)
That definately is a nice flashing Job-- Wish we could get more than 50.00 for a chimney leak around here -- couple months ago i was getting $350.00 for service calls maybee 2 out of ten times with as many calls as i was getting still was not bad 20% of the time.
What do you charge for something like that $500.00 - $750.00 ???????
That copper you installed would probably cost about $250-$300 not including labor and profit. Would never get that kind of signed contract around her (pac NW).
It is a good lookin job though. Is this a east coast thing where customers would not be caught dead without having some form of copper on their roo?
I give it an A minus. Counter step the backside as well and its an A plus. But hey im just picky. So, Good job Dennis! :) Sometimes they look better the way you did it anyways due to them doing it the same way before and leaving the marks on the chimney. Its better to cover them back up sometimes by reinstalling the way it was before.
Looks great Dennis !
Cleveland, Ohio
Same shingles, about 4yrs old
Tied into copper valley. Rolled gable, with rolled eave/valley at bottom (that's another story)
multiply that lower number x 8
yep, cheap granule surface ice and water. If applied to old dirty roof boards, sometimes we can peel it off. Often we just go over if the deck is solid.
I'll take the A-. We can always do better. (given more time and money)
Thanks for the compliments.
I like how your work dumps the water from the valleys 3 or 4" away from the side of the chimney. I though that was only MY move.
Woody, how many times have we seen people do just the opposite and end the saddle 2 inches short of the side of the dormer or chimney? A neat pocket for the water to pool in!
Nah Woody! Me too. And got called a hack at another forum for it too! :laugh: :laugh:
Actually Tinner, my detail would probably look more like yours than Dennis's. I would probably have winglets in there someplace.
Two things. The side wraps should be deeper, the length is such that water has a good chance of penetrating as it travels down and in- unless of course there is some kind of back up behind the flashing. I can't see, but if that top joint is caulked it should'nt be. The chimney is bricks and mortar. Not trying to be a dick Dennis it DOES look good, just my humble opinion....if I ever had one.
