ROFLMAO! 😃🤣😂

While that is not that answer I was looking for, it is the kind of response I would likely have made.
The answer is that a damaged solar water panel was removed couple years ago and now we suspect there may be a leak in that area. Looking for recommendation, but always looking for a laugh.... even at my own expense.

As a " Silver Member " I highly recommend waterproof " Double sided Clear Tape " instead of Duct Tape. It will look much better.

Your Welcome in Advance.

OK, I am going to jump in. I would do some research on roof patching materials, and then use ONLY those products. I an a past life (back up north) I used roofing under layment, roofing cement, and similar shingles for my repair, it lasted for several years.

Get a gallon of Henry’s Extreme Rubberized Wet Roof Repair Patch, and a $1 dollar disposable plastic two inch putty knife, and you should be easily be able to fix any small roof leak. The stuff has worked magic for us over the years.

I use Jim at (407) 625-1139. It's a roofing company. He is insured. I had a warranty on my roof and they sent his company out. They do a lot of warranty work, which is small jobs.
