I have found that using a bricklayers trowel raises the shingles with less damage to the shingles. It is thinner and wider than a wonder bar/ flat bar and want poke a hole in the shingles and slides under the shingle better!

Wow such a great lesson for me as a new home owner on how to deal with roof contractors to make sure they do their job the right way and do not lie or try to cheat me!

How long after you have put on a new roof will it take to have the nails get rusty if they are having water go through them?

What if you can’t lift up the shingles? My roof is about 8 years old and it’s super difficult to get a pry bar underneath them to pry them up. What would you do then?

I remember this one leak back when I was working for another company, they used foggers, tore the roof, rebuilt it, re shingled it twice! had to work overtime too! i had already put in my 2 weeks. but I heard it was still leaking lol. it was somewhere near the chimney. I’m sure they eventually fixed it without me. they even had a roofer take a look. maybe it was the bricks

I'm not sure why there was the statement of that " this is or could be a trial and error thing" roofing is not trial and error. Its take a very certain person and skill level to be a roofers. I have never returned to a leak when i got a call but then again i been roofing 17 years now and own a roofing company. Not trying to knock you guys as your actually up on the roof and for that i command you for that but we should have been able to find that leak with out pulling any of them shingles off and by the way them look like IKO's and if so that's a whole different topic to talk about. Nice work guys you got the job done tho and that is what matters. Hope Custmer was happy. No one wants water falling on there fucking head from and roof leaking that's no fun. I apologize for my typing you know us rooofers always beat up phones screen protectors cracked and case is barely hanging on lol.

Thank you. I have found the leak from inside the attic but have not found on the roof from the outside. That will be my project this weekend if the rain holds off.. It's starting to ruin my sheet rock inside

I have a roof leak and my roof is roughly 15 years old. I can’t find any roofer who will come out to try to find a leak, but only will do a roof. What do you do in cases like this? It’s very frustrating because I hired a neighbor roofer and there really was no formal paperwork, under the table basically and he’s moved. Does this mean I need to replace an entire roof over a leak?

Awesome, you have any badass roofers as yourselves in Delaware?

My roof has staples. I'm currently tracing a leak. If you have a damaged drywall ceiling, is it possible to look up through the ceiling and find staining beneath the roof and 'zero in' on the source of the leak that way?

Very good information. And hopefully, your integrity is as heroic as the misplaced theme music of this video about roof leaks. Does Captain America work for you?

Mine is leaking around the chimney.. And i think through the vinyl siding that has the holes for ventilation. I did not think it was suppose to do this..
