Missing Shingle Replacement, explained.
Shingles are layered like scales, and when some are missing the ones around them lose their protection. Underlayment exposed to sun and rain does not last, and water can reach the decking.
We replace missing shingles, weave them into the surrounding courses, fasten and seal them correctly and check the nearby shingles for creasing or lifted tabs so the repair does not fail at the edge.
Signs you need this
- You found shingles in the yard or gutters
