when building a flat roof, do you pitch the plywood or the roofing material?






Answers:


1I assume you question is in regards to the roofing sealant. Once you nail on the roofing material, starting at the bottom of the roof and working your way up, then put on another layer of roofing but this time don't nail it. Use a roofing compound between that and the first layer. Then coat the top layer with the compount also. If you'll ask for assistance at your material supplier in you area, they are great help also. Good Luck
