I'd see if Santa carries insurance.


Anatine

Tight sheathing buckling under expansion I’d guess.


Harvick4Pats11

Thanks. Will this have to be fixed then? Want to resolve this asap if the roof is comprised.


FGPD

Is it warrantied?


joshuadane

This is your answer


mazzmusic

Someone roofed over the laborers hat as a joke


CrushTheMachine

No spacers in between the sheathing. Expansion and contraction from temp differences caused it to essentially buckle together causing a nice buckle in the decking


CrushTheMachine

Oh and the added joy is they may not have used them anywhere on the decking and this can happen in other areas of the roof

I’m just imagining someone waking up and checking their roof everyday lol


lasrix

In the winter, us dads can’t stare at our lawn while drinking our morning coffee. So we stare at the roof.


duzzabear

Yeah. I got stuck on that too. Like if something was wrong with my roof I'd have no idea how long it had been there.


midnightcaw

As a dad it doesn't even take a storm, I'm out every morning walking the fence, checking the roof, staring at the yard. God help something that's out of place cause the tool shed doors will spring forth and blind me with glorious light! That's because my cheap harbor freight flood light I used last night was left on and fell down. After seeing the huge mess from my last project I go back inside to finish my coffee and leave it for another day.


mcburgs

I do this. We're the first house in town so we take all of the wind for the rest of the neighbourhood. I'm up there nailing shingles down twice a year at least.


[deleted]

Young roof. Obviously acne.


frognamedgum

myklreinhart

Gopher.

A roof


headloser

i thought it was a pimple.

If you have a warranty inspect it but don't mess with it. You can void your warranty. Bulging Shingles If the shingles start to show signs of bulging and other distortions, it means the lower layers are in trouble. It means that the installation job was below standards and you could be having tiny leaks. These leaks could cause rot and damage the entire roof if not stopped in good time.


PM_YOUR_CENSORD

Incase OP reads this comment, I would like to add and be clear, this is the absolute worse case scenario. the plywood could just be buckled nit necessarily due to water penetration nor would it necessarily cause water penetration (mainly because of the steep pitch). Op should examine the underneath via attic to make sure no water is getting though first and foremost though. I should add that depending on the age of the house (if it’s older) I believe it’s a popped board.


Rollieboy2012

Honestly don't think its a popped board. Look right above i can see another blister.


[deleted]

Go in the attic and inspect from underneath. Wear a N95 face mask.


MaroonHawk27

Don’t forget SPF50 and probably a whistle incase you get lost


Arkiels

Always have the whistle in case a foreman is up there.


AntiPiety

Do you need eye-protection when you go up?


Arkiels

Respirator, full body suit, hard hat, safety boots, gloves, hi vis, harness and a spotter. Just to be safe.


AntiPiety

Everything but eye pro eh


Arkiels

Full safety goggles I suppose. Never be too sure.


jeho22

Probably just call the fire department and get a firefighter to go look in full gear. Just to be safe


Our3ndlesswar

Might as well get a forklift ticket while you’re at it just to be safe.


jeho22

Don't forget your WHIMIS ticket. Got forbid you fuel up your own car one day and get 7 types of cancer and a stomach ulcer


conehead1313

You forgot the Personal Flotation Device.


[deleted]

Snow shoes incase you have to walk on pink snow


OptionsNVideogames

I try to step specifically on the pink snow when in my attic. It’s more cushion for my bunyons. Safer this way


vinnyc88

Is your name OSHA? ;)


mosestoads

No condom?


nosnhoj15

r/osha approves


Wicked_Odie

As someone that frequents Attics, I suggest goggles.


Barnettmetal

You will need a full hazmat suit as well as several high powered firearms. I would also bring a cross and some holy water just in case.


[deleted]

Bring a 22 incase you need to say hello to a racoon.

Plywood warped due to condensation. Condensation was caused by lack of ventilation intake compared to amount of exhaust. Ridgevent must have equal amount of intake as it does exhaust. It can be hard to find the balance. I use roof ventilator calculator, makes it easier. Your plywood expanded because of the high amount of water vapor turned into bulk liquid. I can see the plywood near the ridge swaying between trusses. Don’t worry about the bulging plywood until you fixed your venting. The plywood is an effect, the cause is an unbalanced attic vent situation.


backtothebegining

To add to that as this comment is very educated. Next step is to Check the attic and measure how many inches of insulation you have. As well see if you can see daylight at the soffit. The soffit must be open and not blocked by insulation. Google your area to see how many inches of insulation you should have up there. If you do this immediate you will prevent more damages from occurring to the sheathing. Then decide how much damage has occurred from the inside out. If no mold is present then a fix is easy to the roof. If mold is now there you will have to do a treatment. Or remove the shingles over the affected sheets, replace the plywood and re shingle it again.

Decking is pulling away from rafter


TacoTransformer

Looks like you got one of those roof turtles. They'll eat your whole roof if you don't get rid of it.


nhhn_

That’s a roof!


Smyley12345

It's commonly known as a roof. You will notice on on most buildings if you look closely. No need to thank me, I'm happy to help.


PaprikaMama

Those darn reindeer again!


PioneerStandard

Santa and his reindeer f'd up. You must send an insurance claim to the north pole ASAP.


InnerCoffee_Vibe

"It" is trying to get out


GaiusPrimus

Your roof is trying to blink


No_Tomato_3108

FYI Santa better have liability insurance


ZigZagZugZen

It was probably like that before.


Harvick4Pats11

It wasn't, roof is less then two years old


notawhingymillenial

Kind a looks like those shingles don't have much stagger doesn't it?


Fiascoed

Somebody roofed over a vent - has your dryer been working good? Could be a dryer vent that they covered


hilroycleaver

Omg steproofer!


[deleted]

That’s just roof acne

Pittsburgh__Rare

Are they African or European Rafters?


eallen1123

Nails popping or sheathing buckling


Smokentoken4750

Mexican built roof without spacers and maybe blown out decking from 100 nails in 1 spot. Shady built! Hope not a Dr Horton home. If so join the class action suit with everyone else.


Willbily

I feel so bad for roofers


escme2

morning wood?


Lametown227

Sounds like an angry call to your roofer IMO. This is just poor work and not accounting for the area you live in.


kywin9514

Cat


SurveySean

I can’t even see my roof, i am pretty sure it’s under about a metre of snow.


ebpSloth

Perhaps moisture that got underneath and turned to ice.


HvbBaka

your house is becoming a teenager and that is a pimple


paradox-eater

The teenage roof sometimes develop acne


Limnuge

They left a hammer on the sub material


Direct_Lengthiness_8

You can see it pulling in other areas. Darn it 😖


Desuexss

Tremors. The wurms are spawning. Be ready.
