Wind blew a couple of shingles off the roof. Trying to find matching color/style and I noticed this number on the back of a fallen shingle. Google search doesn't turn up anything. Is this a manufacturer code?…

I recently finished a deck and with it I built this laundry housing. I used tongue-and-groove redwood siding. I love the look, but as I suspected, it's not waterproof. So, I'm thinking I should add shingles.…

My roof was recently completed, and I discovered that the roofers installed three closed valleys without the 36-inch waterproof membrane on the deck required by both the shingle manufacturer's instructions and California code.…

So I tried repairing my older, rotted sheathing near the eave fascia of my shed. I re shingled about 6 rows and now there’s a leak inside coming from where the new sheathing meets the old sheathing.…

Our house has one layer of 3-tab shingles from about 2006. Three roofers quoted a full tear-off between $13k and $15k. A fourth says the deck looks solid and quoted $8k to go over the top with architectural shingles. Code here allows two layers.…

We hired a painter to do the outside of the house a nice soft white. The house has wooden shingles. But during prep they pressure washed the and then scraped some of the old paint off. But it looks terrible now. Worse than before.…

I left the bottom of the pipe fitting open and there’s a small gap. It’s my first time, you can see where I replaced the shingles. I used nails and tar to secure the shingles and pipe fitting. submitted by /u/Pristine_Cake_7728 [link] [comments]

Hello, We've had our roof for about 10 years now and earlier this week, I noticed a few shingles that had damage on them, most likely from a cat\possum. Is this something I could patch with some type of glue\paste or do the shingles need to be replaced?…

I had a roof replaced about 4 weeks ago and I have a few shingles that look like they are a little puckered. There are two in the top third of this photo. What causes this and is it anything to worry about or will it eventually flatten out?…

Added a vent hood. Realized I shouldn’t have caulked the bottom of the flashing. Easy fix? Should I replace shingles? Only did the nails under the shingles up top and caulked on top of them along with under the flashing.…

Not a pro by any stretch but I know the basics. How's it looking so far? Update: roof pitch is 2/12. didn't realize that 3tab shingles were so polarizing. No one tripped on anything, we worked with our eyes open. Its done. Looks great to me.…

I have 1100 square feet of roof to replace on a 100+ year old house that bakes in the sun all day 8 months of the year, and gets rained on the other 4. Most of the roof is 1.8/12 pitch, with a small section at 1/12.…

I have a final inspection in an hour before I cut a check. Questions: -did they stretch ridge cap shingles too far? I see exposed adhesive strips -are the shingles stretched too far to get more coverage? Noticed discoloration.…
