To repair your leaky roof,
you’ll need a new piece of shingle, a prybar, hammer, roofing nails and roofing
adhesive.
1. Using your hands, lift
the damaged shingle from the roof.
2. Remove any and all
nails that were used to hold that particular piece of shingle in place.
3. Completely remove the
damaged shingle.
4. With your prybar, slightly lift the shingle above the damaged area.
5. Measure and cut a new
shingle that can fit in place of the old one.
6. Using roofing nails,
fasten the new shingle to your roof.
7. Cover the head of each
nail with roofing adhesive and secure the new shingle into its place.
Leaks In A Flat Roof:
To repair leaks in a flat
roof, you will need a primer and patching system, a brush, scissors and a
flat-roof roller.
1. Make sure the damaged
area is clean and free of any dirt or debris.
2. Apply primer onto the
damaged area while spreading it far enough to touch the undamaged part of the
roof.
3. Cut a piece of
self-adhesive patching material wide enough to cover the hole and parts of the
undamaged roof surrounding it.
4. Apply the patch and
smooth it out by hand. After, go over it with a flat roof-roller to ensure all
bumps and bubbles are flattened out.
