Worst roof ever installed - steel roof - Bad roofing Roofer training video for what not to do

I’ve seen some wild attempts at roofing, but this has got to be the Hiroshima of roofing fails. Thanks for the upload and laughs😂😂

Our company did it. We are the only all blind construction company this side of the Mississippi. They may not be able to see but their work ethic is grade A.

Hats off to who ever did the home inspection and asked for you to come give a look.thats a mess.

As an inspector, I've adopted the "first 20 minutes, it's a dog" approach. If there are issues this severe in the first 20 minutes of inspection, I call the client and tell them it's a dog, and ask if they want to continue. They can start looking for a better buy, and I don't have to charge them for a full inspection. I get their next inspection and extreme trust as well.

“Ah It’s got shingles underneath. No need to make it watertight.”

The 15 thumbs down are from roofing contractors that think this was a good roofing install.

The installers words "looks good from my house"

Youtube: We know it's 12:30am, but would you like to see the crappiest metal roofing job ever? Me: Why, yes, yes I would.

My guess is that the homeowner got very high prices from the legitimate roofers because of the million peaks and valleys and complex corners and windows butting right up to the roof and then some loser came in and said he could do it for less and they thought the other roofers were trying to scam them. That is one complicated roofing project.

The only thing saving this house is the two layers of roofing under the metal

42 years in the business and that’s the worse I’ve seen on a house roof

I run a handyman service and metal roofs are just one of the things I do. When called for a roof leak, it is common to find the same problems as the roof in this video. I loose a lot of roof jobs to people that put on metal and a ridge cap and nothing else and call it done. When I give them an estimate to do the same roof but done correctly with all the trim, I'm told "your just trying to rob people".

I'm not a roofer and never installed any metal roofing and even I can tell this is VERY bad! WOW.

38 years I've been building houses.. That is the worst roof I've ever seen. The sad part is that the taped part is probably the only place not leaking.

I'm not in this trade but I've learned a ton about metal roofing and the meticulous details that go into it just from watching RR Buildings. You don't even have to be a roofer to know this is a horrendous job and whoever did it needs to be called out publicly before they do it to someone else.

This makes my DIY roof repairs and work look amazing.

That 3 screw method is way advanced ! The water catchment places are for collecting water as it gets filtered through the roof & ceiling into buckets inside the house ! The tin foil tape can double as a weed pipe in case you are wanting to get high when your on your roof ! Very technically advanced options were used in this roof job !! This man is just jealous ! 🤣 Also, less than 3 bottles of whiskey were consumed during this job ! Pride in workmanship !!

Need to call out these crappy companies such that others are aware and people can avoid these companies.

Man!! I've been in the roofing industry for over 20 years and I thought you were joking when you said it was bad. Horrible work, not a single detail done wright. Bad, this is who take work away from contractors who really care.

My first job was helping a contractor, I worked for him about a year. I am no expert but I understand how things are suppose to work. Will admit never installed a metal roof nor would I attempt it on anything with valleys. But this is exactly why at least couple times a day I look over what is going on. I try not to be overbearing and an ass about it. I will talk to the guys, offer them something to drink. If it looks good I will will tell them so. I don't nit-pick over any tiny thing. But stuff like this I would refuse to pay for until fixed. The first time I had my house roofed they put OSB, felt paper and shingles under my ridge vent. Was no way my roof could vent. I told them I wasn't paying until that was fixed because I pointed it out as they were doing it. They went ahead finished said they were going to cut it from underneath from the attic afterwards. I thought that is going to be a chore but thought ok. They finished, packed up and left. I asked my wife if she heard them walking in our attic, she said no. So I went in the attic they had not touched it. The next day the contractor wanted payment. I told him when they fixed the ridge vent. He tried telling me they did. (He had left his crew here alone when they did it.) I told him to go look. He promised to send his guys back to fix it. They returned when I wasn't home. When I returned home they said it was fixed and wanted payment. I asked how they fixed it they said they took the vent up and cut it out with a circular saw then replaced the vent. I said it's odd there was not a sign of sawdust on the shingles. That I was going in the attic to look. They left as soon as I said that. A month later the contractor sent me a letter he was putting a lean on my house. I sent him a letter back with photos and copies of estimates from other contractors to repair the work. I told him I would be glad to see him in court. Never heard from him again. A old lady had them do her roof a block away. 8 years later she had to have the roof replaced. The contractor that redid her roof said they nailed the mechanical vents to the decking and did not bother cutting a hole for them to work. They were basically spinning roof ordainments. So a few years ago I hired a high school friend of my wife's husband who is a contractor to install a metal roof. Was nervous about that. My house was built in 1900 so nothing is square. But this guy was an artist it looks great! He even taught me to flash a valley on a metal roof. They didn't miss a nail or screw on clean up. They used foam cushions to work off of to keep from getting burnt on the hot metal and not scuff the metal up.
