How-To add Your Roof Sheathing

by andrewodom on June 26, 2012 · 6 comments

Nothing says “dried in” quite like some roof sheathing. For our tiny house we were fortunate enough to have LP ProStruct Roof Sheathing with SilverTech. The SilverTech features a radiant barrier that helps reduce the sun’s radiant energy through the roof panel in the summer! Along with its professional-grade, logo-free appearance, LP ProStruct Roof Sheathing with SilverTech helps give any outdoor structure a superior look that’s engineered to perform.

Having said that, we hope you enjoy our latest “How-To” video. It certainly is our pleasure to make them and we enjoy hearing back from each viewer.

Please don’t stand on top of a folding ladder like that. Please buy a taller ladder, it is cheaper than the medical bills from a fall.

  Thank you Michael for the note and the concern. You are absolutely right and in an ordinary circumstance I would have thought better. However, in that particular moment I was task-oriented and not thinking too much of safety. Note well taken though!

why did it print my name? Honest. Is the exterior OSB?

  I don’t know what you mean by why it printed your name. Whatever the case, it is a strandboard product, yes. It is called SmartSide. You can see a video about it here: http://tinyrevolution.us/2012/06/06/how-to-apply-siding-to-your-tiny-house-with-lp-smartside/

Haha Andrew, Micheal_H007 called you out…. I noticed and thought you need a taller ladder, as well…. lol This was about a product that I knew little about. Thanks for the tutorial…. well done.
- Andrew Odom
  
  He did call me out and I acknowledged so. It was a dumb move on my part and I am just thankful I WASN’T hurt in any way. You can bet I have been more careful since!
