Starting to put the ice guard membrane down for the first course.
And the second course...
Because this area sees a lot of sun and the membrane will be exposed all winter, Jim decided to just put the titanium underlayment on top for an extra layer of protection.
The ice guard membrane has to go up the side of the roof where the valley rafter will be.
Putting the underlayment on this section of roof was much more difficult than on the dormer roof or even the smaller side of the main rafter. Jim had to continually take the toe boards off/put them back on, plus it was hard to reach areas - like the side of the roof that he's working on below. We ended up using smaller, more manageable pieces of membrane that he could put along the side of the roof. Then he put the titanium underlayment on top of that.
Putting more membrane up the side of the roof.
Jim would give me the measurements of the underlayment and I would cut them and bring them to him so he didn't have to totally come off the roof. Continuing along with the titanium...
The sides were tough - Jim had to move from the scaffolding to the roof to try and get the membrane attached correctly.
Working on the last course!
Putting the last piece of membrane at the top - Jim had to work from the other side of the roof for this piece!
Putting down the last piece of underlayment!
Time to put the cap staples in to really hold it down securely...
Jim continued putting caps in until he ran out of daylight!
Last look of the day - that's a big section of roof to have done!
Jim stayed after dark and made some more rafters - he has all but one of the rafters made for the one side of the roof. The temperatures really drop quickly after the sun sets...Jim came home very tired and a bit frozen around the edges!
