DIY: Temporary fix for hole on the roof

All the tools & products I used for the repair I bought at Home Depot. I cut out the existing shingles in the area around the hole. I then covered the hole with three layers of sheet metal. I glued on the sheet metal with a product called Wet-R-Dri roof cement & it stops roof leaks. I then put down the new shingles over the sheet metal covering the entire section that I cut out. I used the roof cement to glue down the shingles then hammered it down with roofing nails. Sorry I didn't show how I nailed down the shingles, I forgot to put that part on video. I did the repair on March 28, 2015 and it is still holding up strong. It has rained since, even had a storm and there are no leaks. The estimate I got from a licensed roofer was over $2000, that is expensive for me, so I decided to repair it myself. I spent a total of $100 this includes the tools I used, the roof cement, sheet metal, a big package of shingles, a bag of chips and a diet coke. :) Thanks for watching.

You did a beautiful job. No need to replace the whole roof, it looks like it's in great shape. Only thing I'd advise doing differently is to get the patch shingles under the surrounding shingles, so they're overlapped. This way water cannot get in. You did a great job though!

@ronniek4279 3 жыл бұрын
I agree even for any temporary fix. You needed to over lap the shingles to reduce any chance of rain getting in. If that happens you risk black mold and more problems that will become expensive repairs. But in all I have to give it to you. Job well done.

I hate it when I walk into a home improvement store or have someone come to my home, and think that because I'm woman, they can talk down to me or give me a ridiculous estimate. I may be a woman but I am not an idiot. I applaud you for telling that company to take a hike and tackling this yourself. I think you did the best you could and I hope this works long enough until you can get this fixed permanently. Thanks for the video

+Crafting With Charm But if youd'a just googled it you could'a done it right and permanently easier than what you did. I mean seeing what you did do, I can see that you coulda easily done the correct way w/ just a little instruction. "How to's" for roof repair are all over KZfaq. Like the one guy said, "It's gonna leak like crazy without the overlap at the edges. For $2000, (that sounds way high you can find a much cheaper price) But given your ability w/ the tools, all you need is a little instruction. If I were you, I would KZfaq the instructions, and redo it regardless of the price as adept as you are w/ the tools. You got the will. The way is easy. For a small job like this anyway.

+partner348 absolutely right. shingles should be staggered on an of set divide kind of like bricks. had you taken out the pieces of shingle you didnt have to go to all the extra work of cutting those temp shingles to fit your hole. all you had to do was pull the cut and torn up shingles and replace them with whole ones. In this case you actually did more work than if you had replaced whole shingles and not cut them.

Crafting With Charm the way you approached it was good, but how you cut up the existing shingles was not good. You can still fix this yourself. But, you need to not cut any shingles. You start two row above the row 3-tab shingle you need to remove and you keep taking out shingles, no cutting them! Until you reveal your needed work space. Then you fix your problem, refelt with tar paper, and put the same shingles right back in. Originally, you could had done this job easily only replacing the actual damaged shingles with no cutting up new shingle shenanigans!! Good job I suppose. But I would like to see you go back up there and do what I've mentioned. Your 3-tab shingles will go right back on. You just lift the shingle tab below the shiny you're installing to drive your nails 1" above the tab cutout, or the tar line if their not 3-tab type shingle. $2,000, good grief, I'm in the wrong business 😆

Geez! What caused a hole like that? A meteorite. But, way to go. I am learning how to repair my leaking roof. That is what brought me to your video. I have learned how to fix my truck, fix plumbing, and all sorts of things watching KZfaq. I cannot afford these mechanics or contractors, so I am learning to do it myself too. I might even try your method of gluing sheet metal? My hole was smaller (about 2") and this might be an easier fix rather than cutting out a section of board. This would probably be a better option for me since my roof is 25 to 30 years old and the whole thing need to be replaced this summer. The sheet metal would be a better option because all the wood needs replaced anyway. So, why waste time and money replacing it now? Thanks for that idea!

Wow, A for effort. Without having any training, you did amazing. Don't expect me to put a video on KZfaq showing how my lasagna turns out. Lol. I'm not a cook. Unfortunately, the experts are correct on your repair. It will leak.The reason you got such a high estimate is because roofing companies need to keep a crew busy. They typically will only bid a roof replacement. As far as getting 3 bids on this repair. That is a waste of everyone's time. Your repair is a service call repair. If I show up, I'm doing the repair. I ask enough questions so as not to waste my time on such a small repair. I've preformed harder repairs for $180. I say "hard". I mean hard for your average layman. Not hard for your roofing contractor. Making lasagna is hard for me.I own High Quality Home Maintenance in Cedar Rapids Iowa and perform roof repairs regularly. There is a chance that the tar paper will keep the water out for a while, the caulking will help too. If I had to guess (and I don't) your roof will begin to show signs of leaking within 5 years. The reasons are as follows; 1. The sides/ends of the shingles line up from the bottom to the top of the repair. This means that the shingles are not staggered from 1 row to the next which would provide a water tight repair. 2. If the shingles were overlapped properly, then you would need to have a starter course shingle. 3. You cut the top 5 inches off of at least 2 shingles. Never cut the top of a shingle unless you are near the peak of the roof or are terminating at a wall. 4. I'm guessing that the shingle at the top of the repair also has the top cut off. This means that it is only tucked under the existing shingle until you hit the nails holding that shingle down. This will probably be the area that will allow the most water under the shingles. However, if you keep applying tar to the seams of your repair. The leaking can be greatly minimized until you get a new roof. Also put tar at least 8 inches above the repair area. Trust me on this, just put tar over the shingles 8 inches above the repair. That's the best you can do until the roof gets replaced.

Listen to that straight edge blade - this roof is brittle, probably 20 years old. Given the weather seems to be cool, these shingles will break free from the cement line, but due to the age, the shingles will also break in field if they are flexed even a little. I would have quoted $ 350 if the decking was replaced but closer to $100 for a simple piece of flat .26 gauge that was fit in close to 6" up, 6" to the sides & a few inches below the hole (tucked under the shingles) & then patch in shingles like she did. Like you, I can appreciate the effort but the execution is not great @ all. That said, this roof is limited in the life span & I think this patch will probably leak faster than your suggested 5 years. BTW, given that location & it's so far away from the tree, was this damage done from a basketball hoop over the garage door?

Shingle go under each other, overlapping? Without groves. Is why it's shinny? Good video.

Good job girl, especially with no roofing knowledge or background. Better have the job done than have the haters criticize you. When most of them would not even attempt to do the job.

I've just found out I have a hole in my roof! I wish I could get to it on ladders but it is about five times higher than your roof. I need a lot of scaffolding for a tiny hole!
