Default Re: Shingle Overhang

LOL. What were they thinking? This was supposed to be a "butt & run" shingle over job. Properly done it will lay flat, without the tell tale hump mentioned. The only tell tale sign should be one slightly less exposed course. After you make the adjustment needed at the beginning, the top of all upper course shingles "butt" up against the thickness of the tabs of the original roof on up to the peak. Dave, those are swell diagrams, but can you dig up a diagram of the 'butt & run" technique to share with all.

Sorry to disagree with you, but being paid to do a task dose not make one a Professional. It might make a Proffesional (want to be) , but usually do not make it on that ship, they did not learn, all they new was that if they went in business on their own, they good charge premium prices for the task and never really worked for someone long enough to learn the difference. As a Commercial Builder, I see this all the time, and I am usually the one that sees the writing on the out-house walls. If I don't, I believe I am not doing my job. ha. ha.

As in all trades of bussiness, most people try to make it on their own prematurely, and will either make it or break it.

Do you have a problem with Professional Opinions?
Maybe I am interpetting your response wrong.
