Thank you so much for making these videos. You answered all of my questions for installation of a metal roof over shingles but more importantly we are getting an estimate for installation so I know what questions I need to ask. If we end up doing this ourselves I'll watch the videos several more times.
Best video I’ve seen on metal roofing problem areas so far.
Great video. At 10:37 you illustrate many screws to hold the flashing down. I know from firsthand experience that that snow and ice can lift that flashing up and cause leaks because I only had six screws holding it down. I am going to drill it the same as you did to repair it.
Man this guy is a good roofer,a comment from a roofer too.
Thank you,I now know how to install hardware on my pro panel roof, high five,
I had a boot vent like this leaking and just adding more screws fixed it. Also they used the full length screws which were excessive. I see you used only need 1inch screws for this purpose and achieves the goal. Key word you stated "this should be mostly a mechanical seal".
Thanks for putting these videos out.

Glad you like them!
Very thorough instructions. Thank you
Thank you. Very good instructions.
I was told from the company I bought my roof from, that those silicone heat resistant boots aren't actually approved. I have to use a metal boot for my fire place vent stack.
You always have good videos. I learn some good information. Much of it I know already but still enojoy videos. Thanks.

Glad to hear it!
You explain things well.
Thanks, I’ve always wondered if they made a heat resistant boot as those steep metal flashings are a pain for me as a plumber.

¡Ningún problema! Me alegro de que hayas disfrutado el vídeo.
top class,
Just what I was looking for! Metal roof flashing where there is a ridge in the way. Very well explained. What would you do if you need to install screw eyes into the metal roof, will metal roofing caulk be enough around the screw eye that will be used for down guy? Thanks!
Who makes the rubber boots with the soft aluminum edge?
I have a power mast pole that runs through my roof decking. If I were to reroof with exposed fastener roofing like this video shows, would I be best off to do the second method with two sheets of metal? And use the last boot you showed in the video?

You're 100% correct! You'll need to pieces of metal and the split pipe boot.
What to do if the vent pipe happens to penetrate right at the edge ridges of two joining sheets? Put a third sheet over the middle, from ridge line down to a bit past the vent?

13:22 should help
I heard that you should put square flashings over pipes diamond-like, with the point facing up. That way there's less xhance for water to in trude, because it will run off instead of sitting on the flat bit. Does it make that mich of a difference, or is it a waste of time?

I don't think it would be a waste of time because it doesn't take any more time than installing it the other way.
Hi there, I just saw your video now and liked it. Please can you tell me what's the best type of sealant for the flashings per retrofit boots/Whirly bird flashing on metal roofs. Thx much

@@RoofingIntelligenceThx much. Looking to purchase a great (Furnace) Heat Stack Boot kit for my metal roof. Metal will be installed on perlings over roof shingles. Can you direct me to a great kit please? Thx so much.
I want to metal roof over my existing 3 tab. I have watched every video on flashing. But I can’t find any to deal with ceiling fan vents. I’ve seen videos that they just remove them and let the air vent under the metal panels. I don’t like that idea. Plus I would prefer not to damage my existing roof as it’s only 4 years old.
where do u get these things ? can't find em. how about some one showing how to put on ahard one instead of an easy one anyone can do!!!!! I got one that fits ontop of two ribs and one of those ribs is where the two pieces of tin join. explain that one!
What if my pipe flashing falls just on a seam for the next panel?
Why didn't you notch out the flashing so it sits flush on the panel?
Whew, makin me nervous seeing you way up high like that without a harness 😅
More screws more holes create more chances for leaking water.
Why is the strapping2x4 and not strapping? Lmao
