Jim, what are the steps involved in changing out a broken shingle.

Right, yeah.
So you come back on top, just like you would wood.
Number two, we’re going to remove the nails that are holding the shingle in place. Then just slide it. Just slide it across, there you go. Just like that.
OK.
Then the one above it. Slide the one above it. It’s just a repeated process. The same thing you did up there, you’ve got to do down here. Just got to keep track of your shingle. Then that’s it.
