Sheathing a Roof DIY
Just a quick video of how I did the sheathing on the roof of my garage addition. I am not a professional, this is just my experience and thank you for watching!

You just proved to me exactly what I was taught many years ago , you block at the top & at the end of your walls. That ensures all rafters/trusses are exactly spaced & you wouldn’t have had to go through all of that after you tacked your first sheet. That being said, your video was great for teaching the dyi’r how to stop & fix it ! Good video just the same. 👍

Scott, looking at doing something similar, adding onto an existing garage. Never enough room! Roughly what are the costs coming in it?

The Menards Kit I went with was ~$16k plus concrete costs, I’ll do a breakdown of cost video. It’s taken about 5 weeks thus far because I work full time as well. Thanks for watching!
