Buyers Guide To Roofing Tools & Supplies

Roofing Tools That Every Roofer Needs:

All Scottsdale roofers requires certain tools just to get out of the gate. These 5 roofing tools are very important, though this is far from a complete list.

Roofing Nailer: You can get them in several different sizes that accommodate several different nail lengths. They come in handy also if you need to shoot some ring shank nails to put down plywood. This is the primary tool that makes you a roofer, but you need to make sure that you have enough of the accessories required to keep it fully operational.

Roofing Hammer: It will help you remove misplaced tiles, clean the work area and tap down nails on final inspection. When you go to buy a roofing hammer you will notice there are several different hammer shapes that all go under the heading of roofing hammer. It has a variety of looks, but all of them are standard with different types of roofing to choose from. Some look like a hatchet like the Shingler’s with replaceable guage or the Carpenter’s Shock Reduction Grip and the Carpenter’s Leather Grip, others look like a regular hammer with one of the claws missing. This is the hand tool that you will most often need to go along with your nailer. The most used is the shingler’s hammer, recommended because it has a fully polished head and handle neck, molded on nylon vinyl grip and a retractable cutting blade, perfect for a roofing work.

Shingle Remover: There are several versions of a shingle remover that are all used in different applications, some are meant to facilitate one person doing a tear-off and others helps guide the removed old roofing into a roll. It also has wheels and gives you a cart to help carry it to disposal.

Hammer Tracker: This roofing tool let you staple your paper with the same quick motion that you nail the tiles down keeping your crew productive and using techniques familiar to them.

And finally in the list, but not less important, a ladder. You are not going anywhere without a ladder. We recommend an adjustable two fold and three fold ladders, they are very durable, sturdy and can be compacted to a size that fits easily in any vehicle for transportation.
