Sometimes instead of changing entire shingle you might want to change only a part of the shingle. This video shows one reason why I chose to change only a part of the shingle.

Awesome vid
When I have broken tabs I will remove a whole shingle and with the two tabs of the broken one use it to repair other locations by doubling over some tabs. Saves cost and time.
Bad bad wind storm a few nights ago. I need a new shingle roof; in the meantime, and for a short fix, I picked up all loose shingles on the ground and nailed back on the top (looks pretty bad, I cringe). Now that the weekend is coming, I have time to travel to town to get roof coat/shingle repair, more shingles, ahhhh, and some tools that I did not think about until I saw this video.
Hopefully no more horrendous wind storms or rainstorms. Confident that I can do this huge repair correctly — thanks for sharing your tips and advise. Next, waiting to get a new roof via loan assistance. I can't believe how expensive a new roof costs. It's crazy $$$$$, but lesson learned. I bought my home (9yrs ago) without requesting a new shingled roof in the agreement. The shingled roof is over 30yrs old.
this is beautiful. I own a church that has 2 tabs out, and roof steep
nailing in the tar line ok then.
Is there a chemical reaction with the silicone and the shingle that could cause premature aging?
Sounds like you know what you're doing but isn't this video for beginners? I think you may want to slow down what you are saying because you are going too fast for some of us non experts. Thanks for your time its appreciated.
A part of a shingle (about 4'' x 12'') came off my roof last night, due to big wind. Walking around I cannot see any damage or shingles missing, but have not been on the roof yet. It does not have nail holes, but has the line of sticky stuff on one side. Would I still need to do all the steps in your video for this half a shingle? Would it be the same steps if it came from along the edge of the roof? I have a couple of the original shingles stored in my attic. They would still be good right? This is the original roof, which is 16 years old. Thanks in advance.
Thanks!!!

Great and helpful video! What brand is that pry bar? I need to get one like that! And what Kind of sealer did you use here? Thanks! Michael Reno, NV
saved me bro!!!
wish I had seen this a couple months ago! I basically did the same thing, but I had to cut out a piece that got rotted, then frame it out. Seeing what you did it would have been faster to just rip out the whole ply sheet. Anyways– now I know. Thanks for your time Daddy! 🙂
You make it look easy.
Much thanks.
Here I go…
Thanks for the tips!
The most simple damage can ruin your entire roof, if you’re not precise. Getting some software to help you out in measuring would be a good investment.
U know how do roofing my nigger ?
@kjbaert we don't charge more but we don't get call backs that shingles are not flat after a few weeks doing the job. When a nail from the gun hits a hard piece of wood it won't go in all the way and will stick up a bit or if the wood is a little softer the nail sometimes goes in to far and cracks the shingle You can use tar in a tube or in a can to seal the shingle. You also can use a flex seal
@TheDuckQuacksBack that sounds highly unlikely who told you it was a lifted shingl because 1. Lifted shingle could never do that much damage get back to me on this one
