Doing a resent storm, a tree branch shot through the roof like a speeding bullet. It blow up the roof like a firecracker in your hands. This videos is on How to repair a hole in a roof.
❓It never ceases to amaze me how a relatively small branch can fall 30-50 feet and punch right through multiple layers of shingles and thick plywood. You'd think that the combined thickness of roofing materials would be strong enough to cause the branch to bounce or glance off and land on its side with no damage to the roof. You'd think that the leaves would cause enough wind resistance to slow down the branch and possibly change its direction of travel, but nope! These crooked, leafy sticks somehow manage to fly as straight as a freaking arrow, and with the magical penetrating power of an anti-tank projectile! Try throwing a blunt, leaf-covered branch like you'd throw a spear, and see if you can get it to fly straight and penetrate a bunch of plywood and shingles. Aint gonna happen! But when it comes to rain storms, nonsensical ballistic phenomenon will ensue!
Good job, myself i could of done that in less then 30 minute, great trick for that last row you gotta nail at the top is put the nail standing straight so the top shingle sits on it, i usually use the thick parts of the shingle, then give it a love tap so its driven in and still standing up then pul out a flat bar and put it on the nail head then let the shingle sit on the flat bar and hit it until its fully fastened, you can also do this with out a flat bar too but you have a good change too damage that row
I have a question. Why did you seal each nail you put? Also qhen you start to put shingle and use nails does it require to seal every nail used for the entire roof
Only put sealant on nail to glue the old top shingle to the nail. Or put sealant on old nail holes on old shingles. No sealant is needed if using all new shingles and not connecting to old shingles.
First off none of you know anything about insurnace. Second you can clearly see that the tree branch was placed in the roof. You can see where there used to be a pipe jack there. Y’all are funny.
We get it. Most people are just like you. They have no idea what they are doing and often times make unnecessary repairs. We understand policy and know everything about insurnace. I am getting this entire roof replaced for the same price as a repair 100% of the time. You can keep repairing roofs why we are out here replacing them.
Have you seen the rest of the roof? It looks in great condition. Saying it needs replacement and just use the insurance means you have no idea what you’re talking about. Have you read an insurance policy lately for houses? They essentially do not cover roofs anymore. You’re far better off just replacing it yourself versus going through insurance. A lot of that was due to the scams down in Florida. It is similar to getting a nail in your tire. Does the shop replace it or patch it? They patch it if it’s still in good condition and in the right spot. Get a life and get more knowledgeable.
