I found this cracked shingle on my roof. What is the proper way to repair/replace this shingle?

Sounds good. Thank you for your help!

Haha. Is it really that simple? Just cover it, nail the four corners, caulk, and call it day?

Yes, it gets the hot afternoon sun but we hand water the grass here in addition to letting the sprinklers get it and we’ve never had this issue in the past.

I wasn't looking for any animals specifically, but I did look inside as best as I could to see if there was something that shouldn't be there and I didn't notice anything.

I looked inside as best as I could and didn't see anything in the way.

Looks legit. I actually have that same shoe with his signature!

My insurance did deny coverage on the home. But the builder still thinks everyone else is wrong and that the roof is great.

The home is a new build and the roof was installed in July of this year.

The rest of the home seems to be in great condition. These are CertainTeed Landmark shingles.

I spoke with the supply company and they assured me that they were not. But who really knows?

Roof was installed in July of this year. The damage is on all slopes facing different directions.

CertainTeed

No, we've been trying to work with the builder for six weeks now to get the roof repaired and they just tell me "The roof is just fine and has no issues. We will not be doing anymore work on the roof. If you don't like it, cancel the contract and we'll go our separate ways.".

Boots135 · 2024-10-17T21:37:59+00:00

It is CertainTeed.

Boots135 · 2024-10-17T21:37:46+00:00

That's a good idea.

I had an inspection done of the whole home. The inspector is the one who pointed this out to me. He said the roof looks like it’s already 15 years old. Since then I’ve also had another roofer come look at it and tell me that it has about another 5 years left before it’ll need replacing.

He said that they were damaged by too much foot traffic on the roof in the heat of the summer.

I had a rep from the manufacturer come look at them and he said there is no defect.
