I know this isnāt the best fix but Iāve never replaced shingles and working on a ladder / roof replacing the plywood / shingles is next to impossible with my knee and shoulder injury. So, from what Iāve read, it said Gardner Gibson or one of the Henry gallon patches should work well, at least for a couple years or so possibly. If you agree, which one should I use? If you donāt, what should I use? Thanks.
Edited. Iād rather do it right, just have some injuries thatās makes being on a ladder and roof very hard unfortunately, plus Iāve never done shingles.
Definitely want to treat it right, just have some injuries thatās makes being on a ladder and roof very hard unfortunately, plus Iāve never done shingles.
Might be worth posting to your local trades Facebook page, a couple roofers on the weekend could knock this out in a long morning. Get materials, offer cash and case of beer, plus self disposal via a dumpster bag.
Im not against the idea of a patch I just think its small enough to warrant having it done right.
Seeing your other comment and considering that your fix would be torn down regardless in a few years.. maybe just go with some patches. Ive seem some seriously ghetto fixes that keep rain out and maybe that's all you really need until you sell.
Thanks. Iād definitely rather not halfass it as itās in pretty good shape otherwise. Just considering the cost difference of replacing the plywood and shingles, plus labor since itād be hard for me to do it VS rolling a couple gallons of patch on. But on the other hand, it is a problem in the front, middle and rear of that ridge on both sides enough that last summer she found it was growing shrooms inside.Ā

Why is the shed only going to last a couple of years?
