Roof Work Pt 2

If you missed it, here is the OP on the roof stuff: https://thebaldgeek.net/roof-work/

Paragraph 3 of that post is pretty much the topic for this one.
Cole had his dad's tandem trailer to pick up some mesh for his shop slab, so while it was close at hand, I ordered five sheets of roofing tin and picked them up a few days later.

Reminder of what it looked like. Photo from the OP.

I was not sure what I expected to be under the tin, but it was not another roof.
Seems that our roof was like most others in town. I have heard this style of felt tile roofing referred to by different names, but anyway, I suppose I have a double roof in some ways.
Also easy to see why the big guy was leaking. Not much holding it in.

Gotta say, it felt pretty good to toss this over the side. It was heavy and wobbly.
Sneaky background in this photo.

The new tin is a pretty good color match. In this photo, the new sheet on the left is barely visible. It is just where the old sheets are standing. There was one of the smaller square vents that was leaking at that spot.

I mean, if you gotta do something you don't wanna do, that you have never done before, that you are not confident in doing, may as well start with an easy one.

Well, its 'clean', but that was less of the goal than leak less.
Not going to know the later till I get into the roof when we get a solid downpour.

The two white HVAC pipes actually look really good. Not going to mess with them.
The two black ones (grey water vents) on the other hand are ugly and need dealing with ASAP.

They are both are cracked around the top and also around the joint to the roof.
Someone has blobbed sealer over the top of the dust and dirt that was on the roof at the time, so it's not bonded at all.
The plan (such that it is) is to get the grinder wire brush, and take it all off and back to clean.
Then paint a new layer of black tar over a rough 30cm x 30cm square.
Over that, lay a same-sized patch of fiberglass matting (with a slightly smaller round hole cut in the middle so it pulls down with some tension) and then add another layer of tar, really working it into the matting and into the base layer of tar. <shrug>

Unrelated to the roof. Lee and Amy are watching Cole's shop extension slab get poured. (It happened on the same day that I was working on the roof).

And with this blog, it's official. I'm sick and tired of blogging about the house.
Time to really ramp them down. I've written a rather sharp venting blog, but I'm not sure it should see the light of day. Let me know if you'd like to read it.
