- In this video I show how I repaired a roof with broken asphalt shingles. This 3-tab shingle roof received some minor shingle damage in a strong wind weather event. The result was several shingles with broken and missing tabs. The roof repair process is to replace the damaged shingles with new three-tab asphalt shingles. To replace the shingle, several roofing nails must be removed that hold the damaged shingle to the roof. This requires pulling nails out of both the broken shingle a well as the shingle above it. A new roof shingle is inserted in place of the old one and nailed into the roof with a hammer. Then some roofing cement is added over the old nail holes and to help hold the shingle tabs in place.

This is the most easy to understand roof repair I’ve watched so far. Thank you:)!
Great to hear!
@@MrKistel This morning I fixed my roof. One of the contractor actually messed up the setup when they ripped one out for sample. Because of you, I saved 600$ to $850$. Thank you 🙏 !
Yes, Everything went smoothly except I kept slipping out of my kneepads. I replaces 9 whole shingles and it looks GREAT !! Thanks for the tips and encougagment. I'm 76 yo and so I just took my time and muddled thru it. I hope you have a great 2025 !!
Great to hear and thanks for sharing!
Thanks. Perfect! I like how you show all the detail where the nails are located!
* What happens it you have a shingle need replace on the ridge vents? Thanks. I’ll climb my roof in a few hours when it’s warmer. I’ve NEVER DONE THIS AND MY THOUGHTS ARE RUNNING WILD AND CRAZY WITH WHAT IFS SITUATIONS😊😂. Prayer 🙏
Great video,very to the point informative and precious congrats on your detailed info you are the best one out there thanks you.
Thank you for the kind words!
Great video !! Hurricane Milton broke 12 tabs off my roof. Some tabs are right next to each other so I have to replace about 10 shingles or so. I guess I'm gonna try to do the job myself. I already bought a flat of matching shingles. Thanks...
I hope the repair goes smoothly for you! Thanks for the comment.

Even though my Dad has the prior knowledge to help me with this, I still like to watch the videos for myself. I have a larger section that needs patching, wood repair, and thankfully the old owners left behind a bunch of the shingles in the garage. Hoping for a good match afterward! Thought about getting some roof cleaner to bring the old ones back to life a little, and with a little luck, you'll never know anything was patched
That is awesome! Be safe up there and thanks for watching.
Thanks !! You just saved me $1,000 !!!
Glad I could help!
I got a few shingles missing from hurricane Ida I've been putting off replacing but going to get it done today....thanks for the video.
good luck and be safe with your roofing repair
putting the nail in the tar is that a correct procedure or should I go above the tar line?
WOW! My Late Dad used to DIY shingles, before he got Older.
ME?? I'm a Wuss. I don't like heights (even on a one-story, low-pitch ranch house.) But, Also, I had NO idea there was So much involved!.
I've been meaning to have a Dimensional roof put in, but the contractors ran out of time this year. Those roofs last a LONG time, and it would be a selling point for my house.
Best of luck with your new roof project
Thank you for your video
You are welcome and thanks for the comment

Excellent. I need to do this on and older roof.
Thanks, Be safe up there.
awesome video. I have a little work to do... what material do you use for the shingle sealant?
thanks! i believe the materials are listed in the video description area
Good tip Joe! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Glenn, be careful on the roof if performing any shingle repairs
Thanks
Welcome
nice
Thanks
got about 35-40 shingles to do do needs a whole new roof shingle are wore mighty thin but im not paying 3 times what its worth the Migrants who actually do the work aren't paid anything the contractor and material supplier are making the $$ a $12 k job is probably close to 40 now ill just replace as the wind breaks them off bundle is about 30 bucks and some blackjack maybe ill sell out to someone who wants to do a bunch of work I would rather fish (yes im retired )
For those who aren't roofers and don't know how to walk on a roof I think you're leading down the wrong path. I believe you should at least mention harness, retractable, or rope , lockdown plate screwed to roof.
safety is most important
