Roof leak
-
KMS Woodworks on Sep 20, 2013I have used a product called "through the roof" for some of these "bandaid" type repairs. It is a clear rubber like compound. http://www.amazon.com/Sashco-Through-Caulking-Sealant-Clear/dp/B00110A8D2/ref=sr_1_1/180-0026213-2303023?ie=UTF8&qid=1379687320&sr=8-1&keywords=through+the+roof+sealant Your will want to pick up a couple of small disposable "hair" paint brushes. I like to do two thin coats with a few days dry time in between. This stuff is pretty "sticky" hench the disposable paint brushes...I'll take a small plastic bag with me up on the roof. Once I'm done I just toss the brush in there and throw out the bag...it not worth the effort to reuse the brush.Helpful Reply

Robert Newcomb on Sep 22, 2013Quick fix to get you through the winter. Replace the rubber gasket on the roof pipe.( $3.50 each) Buy some GEOCEL clear GUTTER sealent, ($6.00 a tube). This is not silicone, it is a self leveler goo),and apply it to the exposed nails where the shingle blew off. Next, Plan on a new roof come spring.Helpful Reply

Mary Dockham on Sep 28, 2013Thanks for any input. I don't see that I'll have money for big repairs or a new roof as I live on disability SS. I will see if I can get someone to do one of these ideas. thanks:)Helpful Reply
