Another example of complacency.

Not sure if this is a crew to have hired in the first place… Aren’t you supposed to start laying the tar paper from the bottom first? Overlap allows the water to shed over the row below, else any leakage at the top would allow it to roll under the next sheet down… In any case multiple issues here.

Many issues here, not all the rafter tails are finish trimmed, fascia boards not in place, metal flashings not installed, “toe-boards” are illegal as He**, and we’re working from the top down; unless this is another dimension they will be diverting water under the felt to the UL. Not to mention the fact that the paper is not following the ridge while being stapled down, will make for an interesting layout of the finished roofing if using the lines on the paper to orient.
