  • Up first, is making sure the roof doesn't leak. At the time of recording, more rain was in the forecast, so didn't want any water getting under the shingles, and potentially causing further damage to the house. By no means, am I a roofer, however, I felt confidant enough to tackle this small repair. After repairs, I used clear roof sealant to reattach the disturbed shingles, in the vicinity, and to touch up spots, on the larger hail hits.
    This roof was installed in 2017, and we always keep the extra shingles in the hoard, just in case something like this happens. Thanks to the hoard, this repair was quickly, and easily addressed.
    I don't like the idea of blue tarp covering the damaged areas, typically seen, as a result of storm damage.
    Note: This roof is condemned, and will be replaced. These are just temporary repairs, until that can be scheduled.

    Even thought you aren't a roofer, it pays to know a thing to two about general house repair like this. Nice job.

      Indeed! I can handle the general repairs that continuously pop up. Wouldn't have the money to live here, if I had to pay someone, every time something breaks.

    Has to be hot we recently got a new roof. Still have a few boxes of shingles. Now I’m glad I have them. But that looks hot up there.

      I have a lot of respect for roofers! I replaced one shingle, and was drenched in sweat. Yes, it was real hot that day.
      Yeah, good to save those extra shingles in case something like this happens.

    Hopefully you didn’t have a ton to replace. Hail is a pretty terrible thing.

      Just that one, and used the sealant on the black spots. So far, so good, no leaks. Yeah, I can do without hail, that's for sure!
