After years of exposure to wind and harsh weather, roof shingles can often curl and expose the roof below. Fortunately, you can seal down the curled shingles and protect the wooden surface underneath with a basic roofing sealant. It is a simple process that requires a caulking gun, roofing sealant and a standard red brick.
Step 1
Cut the tip of the roof sealant tube at a 45 degree angle with a utility knife and load it into the caulking gun.

Step 4

Step 5
Place a red brick on the surface of the shingle and let the adhesive set for 24 hours before removing.
