Yesterday’s storms brought wind gusts over 50 MPH, and we’re already seeing shingles blown off roofs across our area.
If you’ve lost a shingle or two and simply can’t afford to hire a roofing contractor right now, I’m putting together a step-by-step video showing you how to properly replace an asphalt shingle yourself to help prevent further water damage until you’re able to make permanent repairs.
In this video, I’ll cover:
✅ The tools you’ll need
✅ How to remove the damaged shingle correctly
✅ How to install the new shingle without creating a leak
✅ Common mistakes that can lead to expensive water damage
❓Not sure what shingles you have?
Post a clear photo of your roof in the comments (or tell me the brand and color if you know it), and I’ll do my best to help identify them and point you in the right direction.
If you’d rather have the repair completed by a licensed professional, we’re here to help.

⚠️ Florida Homeowners: If you decide to hire someone to get on your roof, make sure they are a licensed Florida roofing contractor. Roofing repairs require a licensed contractor in Florida. Hiring an unlicensed handyman or contractor can create legal and insurance issues, and if someone is injured while performing unlicensed roofing work on your property, you could be exposed to liability. Always verify the contractor’s Florida roofing license before allowing anyone to perform roof repairs.
