• Align roofing materials with edges of roofs.
• Apply alternate layers of hot asphalt or tar and roofing paper to roofs, according to specification.
• Apply gravel or pebbles over top layers of roofs, using rakes or stiff-bristled brooms.
• Apply plastic coatings and membranes, fiberglass, or felt over sloped roofs before applying shingles.
• Cement or nail flashing-strips of metal or shingle over joints to make them watertight.
• Clean and maintain equipment.
• Cover exposed nailheads with roofing cement or caulking to prevent water leakage and rust.
• Cover roofs and exterior walls of structures with slate, asphalt, aluminum, wood, gravel, gypsum, and/or related materials, using brushes, knives, punches, hammers and other tools.
• Cut felt, shingles, and strips of flashing; and fit them into angles formed by walls, vents, and intersecting roof surfaces.
• Cut roofing paper to size using knives; and nail or staple roofing paper to roofs in overlapping strips to form bases for other materials.
• Estimate roofing materials and labor required to complete jobs, and provide price quotes.
• Glaze top layers to make a smooth finish, or embed gravel in the bitumen for rough surfaces.
• Hammer and chisel away rough spots or remove them with rubbing bricks to prepare surfaces for waterproofing.
• Inspect problem roofs to determine the best procedures for repairing them.
• Install partially overlapping layers of material over roof insulation surfaces, determining distance of roofing material overlap using chalk lines, gauges on shingling hatchets, or lines on shingles.
• Install vapor barriers and/or layers of insulation on the roof decks of flat roofs, and seal the seams.
• Install, repair, or replace single-ply roofing systems, using waterproof sheet materials such as modified plastics, elastomeric, or other asphaltic compositions.
• Mop or pour hot asphalt or tar onto roof bases.
• Punch holes in slate, tile, terra cotta, or wooden shingles, using punches and hammers.
• Remove snow, water, or debris from roofs prior to applying roofing materials.
• Set up scaffolding to provide safe access to roofs.
• Spray roofs, sidings, and walls with material to bind, seal, insulate, or soundproof sections of structures, using spray guns, air compressors, and heaters.
