Looking for someone to offer me advice via e-mail concerning the tear-off and installation of a laminate dome roof. I have never done one before and have the job if I'm confident I can do it properly. I'm very interested and up for the challenge. Need advice with measuring to proper application. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards, Chad Hawkins theroofcompany@yahoo.com>>>

Actually, you start on the ones (Plural)that have pointy tops.

If I'm not mistaken, tinner, lefty, troop, twill, and pgriz, at the very least, have done at least one each. I know tinner posted pics of his, and I distinctly remember lefty posting a couple pics of his. I posted pics a few years back when coffeeshop frank was still here. That one was cedar shakes, though. I finished another shake one about six or eight weeks ago and a comp one earlier in the year.
Chad, if you want a private discourse, you can email me and I imagine I can help you. I have done all types of them, beginning in the late seventies, somewhere in the vicinity of 150 of them over the years. To my knowledge, none of them leak. My treatment of them evolved in the earlier years until I had things down cold, as they say. In the later years, I have taken everything I do up to a bit higher level of sophistication, but if you have the basics and enough patience you can do them so they last without driving yourself crazy with anxiety.
(good one, woody. I'm impressed. you have a way with words, a unique turn of mind, style, savvy, the woiks. "geodome eldergnome"...quite a ring to it lol)>>>
I think that was tinner?>>>
Geodesic and Comp Shingles. This is a home situation.>>>
When you say 'dome' what exactly do you mean by dome? Capitol dome or geodesic dome? When you say 'laminate' are you referring to laminated composition shingles?>>>
