Asphalt shingles can look like
wood, but last longer. Still,
you should inspect yearly
for damage.

About this Project

Buy roofing cement in caulking tubes to seal minor cracks and holes and glue down curled shingles. If you have a larger job, buy the roofing cement in larger containers.

If the damage is extensive, replace the shingle, as shown here. When working with asphalt shingles, wait for a warm day when the shingles will be flexible and therefore easier to work with.
