Another roof repair was under way last weekend.
.
.
Shingles were lifted and stripped ( in the valley of the addition that I’d been telling the husband to do for the past 5 years! )
.
.
And this time, lo and behold…
.
.
They found something. Wet tar paper and damp wood underneath. Apparently there was a hump in the channel and water was sitting instead of running.
.
.
They worked all day and (hopefully) resolved this never ending issue. Time will tell…. But I think a full roof replacement is in the cards for next spring, even though it’s not even close to the warranty date of the shingles.
Sigh.

River's world..... 
Far be it from me to be critical of a man who will do his own roofing repairs. But still, I wonder why it wasn’t flashed and mopped since the shingles were already removed beforehand …

Mopped? I’m guessing you’re not talking about cleansing…

Normally, a hump is, well, not as bad…

But this hump? It’s in the wrong place.

Sounds like the seed for Stephen King’s next book, ‘The Shingling.’

The way the roof has been leaking, it’s already a Stephen King story.

There’s something nice about a man doing his own repairs.

If the repair worked, I’d be more inclined to agree.
