Ive talked to many people and they all say they have some of these books, just wondering if you have any of them and if so what one you would recommend.

Wow, those are some really expensive books. They must have gold on the ends of the pages or something.

I like the free books I get every year from Certainteed. The MSA is touted as one of the best shingle installation manuals in the business. Did I mention it's a free book?

We have all the standard NRCA, ARMA, and OSHA manuals in our office, but the manuals I rely on the most are the individual manufacturers spec manual. While NRCA guidlines are industry accepted, if the manufacturer doesn't approve it, no warranty.
