When
you have a new roof installed, always save several bundles of
shingles for repairs down the road.

Never go up on a roof unless someone else is around
to holler at. I speak from experience after falling off a
ladder a few times. Roofs can be slippery, so wear tennis
shoes and not dress shoes.
If you persist in doing
this job, get a large piece of foam rubber to kneel on, like
the professionals.
Personnally, I send my wife up to
do the roofing job. I make sure her life insurance is paid up.

Installing shingles is one of the most difficult jobs for
the amateur contractor. If you really want to do it, go out to a
construction site, and watch the pros. Then pick up on one of the
key workers, and when they take a break, ask them if they would like
to do a side job.
Most guys are looking for a way to make a
few extra bucks.
