Alt-Kent, the Brandon Roofing roofer, and a homeowner stand in the yard with hands on hips, both looking up at the roof

Missed the video? Here it is.

Fifty-six seconds. One roofer. One homeowner. One ladder that was fine the whole time.

Sound on. The jokes are in the talking.

The story so far, in six frames

Told by the homeowner. Fact-checked by the roofer.

The roofer and the homeowner stand side by side, hands on hips, studying the roof1
I went outside with him ’cause I wanted him to think I knew stuff.

Real talk: Walking the roof with you is part of the inspection. Knowing stuff is not required.

The roofer points up at the roof while the homeowner looks on2
He’d point at something and I’d go ‘mmm.’

Real talk: We point at things too. Then we explain what they are.

The roofer explains something while the homeowner smiles and nods3
He said, ‘You got some soft spots.’ I said, ‘Yeah, that’s what I figured.’ I didn’t figure anything.

Real talk: You get a plain-English rundown of what we find, so you don’t have to figure.

Close-up of the homeowner, deadpan, in front of the house4
I didn’t know we had a roof. I thought that was just the top of the house.

Real talk: It is the top of the house. It is also the roof. We check both.

The homeowner holds the base of the ladder as the roofer climbs toward the roof5
He did not need me to hold the ladder. He’s done this his whole life.

Real talk: Third-generation family roofers. The ladder is handled.

Back on the ground, the homeowner pats the ladder while the roofer stands nearby6
I said, ‘There you go.’ Like I helped.

Real talk: Calling us counts as helping. So does this button.

Meet the cast

Alt-Kent, a tall roofer with dark hair, thick black glasses and a black Brandon Roofing polo

Alt-Kent, the roofer

Calm. Careful. Glasses stay on. Not a superhero, but he does get on the roof without help.

The homeowner, a man in his early 50s in a navy polo, khaki shorts and high white socks

The homeowner

Says “mmm” with total confidence. Held the ladder anyway. Socks: high.

Alt-Kent and the homeowner are characters we made up for our videos. The roofers who show up at your house are real.
