Jim Krumm is a bad ass home inspector. Any video you guys post with Jim- he's got my full attention. Also is that Jim's son/relative shadowing him? That's pretty awesome!

I have an interview for a roofing inspector job. These videos are very helpful. My main concern is slipping off the roof though.

How about a close up of the hail damage? or a seperate video on varies degrees of hail damage on different roof coverings?

Through out this video series, the inspector references "sections" such as 3.1 Roof. Is this simply to reference the Courses on the InterNACHI site? Or a specific section of a given inspection checklist?

I think vapor retardant is a more appropriate term than vapor barrier. I true vapor barrier blocks virtually all vapor.
@internachi

Right. Most materials (even glass) are unable to completely stop vapor diffusion; thus, calling something a “vapor barrier” is a bit of a wrong label. The current trend in building science is to refer to materials as “vapor retarders,” meaning that while they retard or slow down the movement of water vapor, they do not completely halt the process. Materials that significantly slow down the vapor diffusion process are said to have low permeability, or simply “low-perm.” Typical building codes consider a material to be a vapor retarder if it has a perm rating of 1.0 or less.
I think the homeowner insurance would reject the claim because the adjuster would say "not enough damage" for the claim. It happened to me.

How about when your ladder rubbing the paint off the gutter or when you pop the old drip edge off and add new so you can't tell its a overlay

Do home inspectors walk two-story roofs? Seems a bit dangerous accessing it from the ground unless there was some roof access from the attic.

Many do not, as it would often require setting up a second ladder on the roof. New tech has made it easier to inspect two story homes with drones. The SOP does not require any inspector to walk a roof.
" I need to replace the roof, rooves actually, there are two, one on top of the other, and both are in bad shape. I'm not sure how to find the building code requirements for my area of NY State, and I'd like to make sure that what I build is acceptable.

Interesting, Dave. I recommend visiting codes.iccsafe.org/search/map and clicking NY. There, you'll find NYS code.

U should ALWAYS clean off old roofing b4 installing a new roof. Although many states building codes allow multiple roofs, it AUTOMATICALLY voids shingle manufacturers warranty!

It's a common practice. I prefer setting the ladder on the siding or rake board.
“Cosmetic hail damage” is DAMAGE and results in reduced performance. ANY reduction in performance or lifespan is a claimable loss. Their insurance 100% owes them a new roof.

There are surely tons of inspectors who are half assed when inspecting but this Jim dude is thorough and professional, nobody likes the inspectors but without them our building standards would have been in the toilet. Cut the man some slack!
