After losing a number of them in a couple of wind storms, this old guy came around in an old beat up pickup and said that he could fix the problem.
He replaced the missing ones and then spent two days lifting every single shingle on my roof, used a heat gun and then applied some kind of adhesive.
In the next 5 years, while all my neighbors continued to lose shingles in high winds...I never lost another one.  |
Luckily, it only seems to be about 1/3 of the shingles on the roof in this case -the others are sealed. He said he would bring a crew and should have it done in a day, two at the most.
